Rejected petition Publicly acknowledge that Enoch Powell was right to say what he did in his 1968 speech.

More details

It is only morally right, therefore, that the senior politician of our day, the Prime Minister, publicly acknowledges that it was wrong to have vilified him in the way he was vilified
