No he didn't

he warned that unrestricted immigration would eventually reach a point were the immigrants may be perceived, rightly or wrongly, to be trying to enforce their cultural "norms" and religions onto the wider "native" British population.

he feared a backlash could lead to streets being likened to "rivers of blood"


He did not support repatriation but the reduction of further immigration.

He was famous for a speech in which he said there would be Rivers of Blood, due to the immigration stuff. The guy was a tosser.
