RICHARD WALTHER DARRE

Nazi Reichsminister,

Berlin, 1940

"As soon as we beat England we shall make an end of you Englishmen once and for all. Able-bodied men and women between the ages of 16 and 45 will be exported as slaves to the Continent. The old and weak will be exterminated. All men remaining in Britain as slaves will be sterilised; a million or two of the young women of the Nordic type will be segregated in a number of stud farms where, with the assistance of picked German sires, during a period of 10 or 12 years, they will produce annually a series of Nordic infants to be brought up in every way as Germans. These infants will form the future population of Britain. They will be partially educated in Germany and only those who fully satisfy the Nazi's requirements will be allowed to return to Britain and take up permanent residence. The rest will be sterilised and sent to join slave gangs in Germany. Thus, in a generation or two, the British will disappear."
Darre was a so-called 'genetics expert' and his chilling speech, sanctioned
of course by the Nazi hierarchy, was not merely rhetoric. Had the Battle of Britain been lost, and with it the Second World War, the above plan would doubtless have been implemented.

 In effect, it is unlikely that anyone who is alive in Britain today, under the age of 58, would even have been born.

 Darre made one important omission in his speech - that of the Nazi plans for the 300,000 Jewish citizens if Great Britain. They were destined for the death camps as part of `The Final Solution'.

This then, is what wartime British Prime Minister Winston Churchill when he said:  'Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few'.
