As mentioned above, Powell was generally pro-capitalist and pro-free market in the sphere of economics. He believed that business interests should be looked after by the people that best understood them – in Powell’s view, this was businessmen and not politicians. He was the first major UK politician to call for de-nationalision of public services in the 1960s. However, while Powell was very much a [[File:Monet.png]] [[Monetarism|monetarist]], at the same time he also supported the welfare state and [[File:SyndieSamCon.png]] [[Syndicalism|trade unions]].
 
With regards to social views, Powell was was conservative in terms of his support for the maintenance of [[File:LiberMon.png]] [[Libertarian Monarchism|monarchy]], [[File:Anglican Theocracyf.png]] [[Protestant Theocracy|established religion]] and [[File:Arist.png]] [[Aristocracy|hereditary peers]] in governance. However, on other issues he was liberal/libertarian- he opposed the death penalty and corporal punishment while supporting no-fault divorce and other aspects of the ‘[[File:Prog-u.png]] [[Progressivism|permissive society]]’ established by [[File:UKLab.png]] [[Social Democracy|Labour]] Governments. He also voted to decriminalise [[File:Gay.png]] homosexuality as he did not regard "it as a proper area for the criminal law to operate".
