.@twittersupport . The person posting as @Peter_Hitchens_ here https://t.co/z77cRsXOra appears to me to be impersonating me. He uses my name , date of birth and two pictures of me. Can you please take action as soon as possible? — PolitiTweet.org

.@david_broadley. I think Queen Elizabeth knew exactlky what she was doing. Drake was often a deniable operation, like so much of what our intelligence services and special forces do in modern times. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@twittersupport. This is an attempt at impersonation. To the person posting as @peter_hitchens_ , I have mentioned this to you before. Using both my name and picture in this way is wrong, and you should cease immediately. Others please report. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@theeconomist We are here told that Oleg Gordievsky's escape from 1985 Moscow began when 'he waited on a street corner carrying a Safeway shopping bag. An MI6 officer walked past clutching a Harrods bag and eating a Mars bar'. Hard to thnk of a better way to draw KGB attention. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Fascinating to see liberal cultural revolutionary .@cjsnowdon, absurdly regarded by some as 'right-wing', trying to seek common cause against me alongside .@aaronbastani . — PolitiTweet.org

.@aaronbastani. If the interview had gone on much longer the clocks would have gone forward and it wuld have been three hours. @cjsnowdon. — PolitiTweet.org

2/2 .@david_broadley Half my point is that those who condemen the obvious evils of the past at absafe distance are often silent about equivalent evils of their own time. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

1/2 But apparently @david_broadley it's perfectly legal for Britain to sell weapons to Saudi Arabia, an aggressive nation which murders dissidents and cuts up their bodies. I don't suppose anyone these days much *wants* to issue a letter of marque. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

A nation whch lives partly by bowing and scraping to Saudi Arabia is not in a good position to cancel Sir Francis Drake. Let us admit *our* sins before excoriating the sins of our forebears. https://t.co/rPPC2spQmp via @mailplus — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Yes, Drake did wicked things. But it’s idiotic to pretend he wasn’t a great Englishman https://t.co/rPPC2spiwR via @mailplus — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

All our heroes are flawed, some of them terribly so. Should we then wipe them from memory, or accept them as they were, and as we are? https://t.co/rPPC2spiwR via @mailplus — PolitiTweet.org

.@admiralwyling. Ah, thank you, I shall try that. So much of Palmer's work was lost or destroyed, and there is so little left, that it seems a shame it isn't all easily visible. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

On the evening of Thursday 9th February I shall be speaking at Blackwell's bookshop in Oxford about my new book on the destruction of grammar schools. You may book here : https://t.co/MHyGsciVk5 — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Well, @pieops if you measure by effect rather than effort, two parts of nothing. But if you include effort, quite a bit. As I understand it, you measure by effect, so there we are. But that's your chocie, not an objective measure. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@pieops. This is a bit vague and hard to measure. Please give me an example of a significant action undertaken by you. — PolitiTweet.org

Atheism also makes up its explanation of the origins of the universe, that it was a random event.. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

yeah — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

To whom would I address these pleas. to the two governing parties which blithely smashed up these laws in the 1980s and after and ‘do not give a XXXX’ as New labour said. My powerlessness to oppose this at the time still infuriates me, but it is far too late now.. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I am sure that I have directed you to my post ‘ Stupid arguments for drug legalisation’ which deals at length with this question. Probably many times. Here I am doing it again.. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@pieops That is interesting. What would you describe as a ‘significant action’? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@jimbo79a. Yeah, ‘regulated’ cigarettes in the hands of legal greedy businessmen have been a blessing, haven’t they? Crime is generally done by criminals. Who else would you expect to find selling illegal poisons to the stupid? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

In many cases, the same thing. Though it is possible to drink alcohol without becoming drunk. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

2/2 .@AM_Morgan84 People believe what they wish to believe. Belief's a choice. I prefer to believe that I live in a purposeful universe in which my actions have meaning. No swoons,leaps, trances etc are necessary, just a reasoned decision.Nothing stops you or me from doing this. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

1/2 .@AM_Morgan84 It is absurd to say there is *no* evidence for a theistic explanation of the universe. As long as its origins remain unknown and unknowable, the existence of such a universe, operating to fine tolerances is evidence for such a belief. Evidence, not proof. — PolitiTweet.org
