RT @ClarkeMicah: Mr Benjamin does not seem to have offered any response to this tweet which I sent half an hour ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Hubert De Mornay @HubertdeMornay
@ClarkeMicah If you base your view of the world on Wikipedia, yes.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Perhaps. But the insult remains the most notable hing about him. Ask any non-sycophant. — PolitiTweet.org
Marek Miketa @MiketaMarek
@ClarkeMicah Well that certainly is a lie. Mr. Benjamin has done a lot of noteworthy work.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
.@HarryLotusEater 1. a political opinion can't be equated with a public insult of Olympic coarseness. 2. I long ago (1975) resigned from the organisation in quetsion, and have publicly and fully regretted my past positions. This is not a parallel. I have addressed his points. — PolitiTweet.org

I have not suggested that Mr Benjamin be confined for life in a squalid camp in a foeign country. I fail to see the parallel. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Well, yes, he *can* @mwbmoo. But he hasn't, as far as I know. I ahve today urged him most strongly to do so, and he has not even replied to me. — PolitiTweet.org

Oh, I thought I was supplying a referenced source. I had no idea thae Salisbury Journal went in for clickbait. — PolitiTweet.org
J. Swoleden Kimball @Hotchkiz
@ClarkeMicah Reposting a clickbait article is the most pedestrian/NPC thing you can do as a “burn.”
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
.@ChiefJudgeFish I don't know what I'm supposed to be scared of. I've backed up my ideas over many years in speech, thought, writing and action. I have no idea what makes me a 'luvvie' . I do not know what I am cloistered from. These are just cliches. Arrogant? Yes, probably. — PolitiTweet.org

I simply disagree with you about that. It is absurdly grandiose. — PolitiTweet.org

I have not been a Trotskyist since 1975, @quintonbroster, which I suspect is well before you were born. I have made it plain that i regarded my position as mistaken and I have regretted it. I am wholly public about what i did and said. It's not a parallel. — PolitiTweet.org
Quinton Broster @quintonbroster
@ClarkeMicah Says the trotskyist 😅🤣

@ClarkeMicah Proportionality, Mr. Hitchens. In all things. Ever heard of it?

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
@ChiefJudgeFish For your own good. It is too late for me to go, but you still have time. The country is finished. Any chance of rescuing it ended 12 years ago. I don't recall you being around when I was trying to do something about it in good time, almost totally alone. — PolitiTweet.org
ChiefJudgeFish @ChiefJudgeFish
@ClarkeMicah You’re still avoiding the question. Why should we abandon Britain. Stop obfuscating and back up your assertion you coward.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Right. Then that must be so. — PolitiTweet.org

.@slstrm_dsgn 100% Why not 110%? Couldn't you just have done this with some yellow bald people smiling? Or hands clapping? This is the usual method for sycophants. — PolitiTweet.org
soulstorm_design (David Whyte) @slstrm_dsgn
@JonnyMnemonic22 @Sargon_of_Akkad @ClarkeMicah Oh I definitely agree that Mr. H used it to skirt the debate. 100%.

Please explain how. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah It is a bit grandiose.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
What would be 'reasonable' .@ryantweets77? Must I cease to object to Mr Benjamin's coarse insults? Must I accept his pretentious claims that he is the noble undefeated foe of the cultural revolution? Or accept his drivel about my non-existent class prejudice against him? — PolitiTweet.org

My choice of handle is explained in 'Peter Hitchens FAQs' on my blog. It is complicated, but it is not grandiose. Micah Clarke is a character in a Conan Doyle historical novel much loved by my late father and me. He was not a Mespotamian despot. — PolitiTweet.org
Mikipedi4 @mikipedi4
@ThreeJacques @ClarkeMicah @Bert65281359 Like “Clarke Micah” as a handle, but oh no, someone else does it wrong 😂

Well, if you really think I'm so much wiser, take it from me that a sincere and full public and private apology for your 'rape' remarks, made without reservation or condition, would make you a better and a wiser person and a more effective campaigner. — PolitiTweet.org

I am not on a hill, and have no immediate plans to die. I am just in a Twitter brawl with a silly, rash man and his sillier followers. I am finding it educational. They, alas, are not. I can see no opportunity or cause for humility in this issue. https://t.co/S2DS2eWcQ8 — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
I have not *once* maligned you. I have told the truth about you, that the most notable thing you have ever done is make a repellent, coarse remark to a woman. I offer my usual terms. You stop lying about me. I'll stop telling the truth about you. — PolitiTweet.org

I have been talking about almost nothing *but* the Abolition of Britain for about a quarter of a century. What I mainly found was that most people couldn't care less, and wouldn't do anything about it, even when it was easy. So I decided to stop making myself unhappy. — PolitiTweet.org

Mr Benjamin is not weak, lonely or friendless and needs no consideration from me. Indeed, it is clear he has a loyal mob following who actually admire his unpleasant remarks. — PolitiTweet.org
Name cannot be blank @Gn_O_S
@ClarkeMicah @Bert65281359 How chivalrous.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
I have expressed no such sentiment. In my experience aristocrats are often among the coarsest people you can find. The idea that my dislike of Mr Benjamin's remarks about rape is based on class snobbery is preposterous bilge. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah How dare a peasant use language you find offensive. They should know their place right you self righteous muppet?
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
I don't see why. I'm simply disputing with someone else and correcting various falsehoods. If this upsets you, you have several options available. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Then stick around. I won't stop you. Though I think you have an exaggerated idea of how much anyone else will care whether you stay or go. I wasn't aware you were looking for wisdom. I had the strong impression you were looking for agreement. — PolitiTweet.org
