Sourced

  • The Nazis quite clearly killed millions of Jews.[1]
  • I don't think there was any overall Reich policy to kill the Jews.

    If there was, they would have been killed and there would not be now so many millions of survivors. And believe me, I am glad for every survivor that there was.[2]

  • I am not anti-coloured, take it from me; nothing pleases me more than when I arrive at an airport, or a station, or a seaport, and I see a coloured family there â" the black father, the black wife and the black children⦠When I see these families arriving at the airport I am happy, and when I see them leaving at London airport I am happy.[3]
But if there is one thing that gets up my nose, I must admit, it is this â" the way⦠the thing is when I am down in Torquay and I switch on my television and I see one of them reading our news to us. It is our news and theyâre reading it to me. If I was a chauvinist I would say I object even to seeing women reading our news to us.
But now we have women reading our news to us. If they could perhaps have their own news which they were reading to us, I suppose [laughter], it would be very interesting.
For the time being, for a transitional period I'd be prepared to accept that the BBC should have a dinner-jacketed gentleman reading the important news to us, following by a lady reading all the less important news, followed by Trevor McDonald giving us all the latest news about the muggings and the drug bustsâ¦"
