Oh, @Freebirdsoars only up to the elbows, then. That's all right, yeah ☠️ What a person to acknowledge as your 'father' in a national patriotic song, eh? — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah As for Bandera, in era when blood run as rivers at the hands of every side, his hands were bloodied the least of all.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
No @realpuddleglum. I suspect the major forces urging the survival of NATo after its purpose was gone were NATO employees and major weapons manufacturers. There's proof of the latter, see https://t.co/uQpbkVUyXx — PolitiTweet.org

.@tomowolade Thanks for your thoughtful review of 'A Revolution Betrayed' in the Statesman. But i should point out that the book specifically rejects any attempt to restore grammar schools in this country as hopeless and foredoomed. And I was only at The Leys for two years. — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
.@tombflanagan. I disagree. I think he is troubled to have found so little to disagree with. The irrelevant mention of my two years at the Leys School Cambridge is one sign of this. So blinking what? — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah I don’t think *he* is baffled, he’s expecting the reader to be. Which is probably the case.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
@oitsclearasmud. I think the smoking would be a problem and 'music' nowadays means 'thumping, grinding noise from loudspeakers' rather than a piano. Don't the much-scorned Wetherspoons make an effort to achieve something like this? — PolitiTweet.org

@mrbiswaz The replacement of Germany by the USA as Europe's principal military and diplomatic power is a never-failing source of interest. Germany's *economic* needs increasingly conflict with its submission to US foreign policy. — PolitiTweet.org

@realpiuddlglum. Honestly, I do not see how anyone can offer a serious account of these events without dealing with the intensifying goading of Russia by the USA since 1997. If China behaved in this way towards the USA, America would have attacked China long ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Tomiwa Owolade, writing about my new book in the New Statesman, is baffled to discover I'm not a Tory: 'But what makes the book fascinating is that Hitchens, who now describes himself as a socially conservative social democrat, invokes an old left-wing defence of grammar schools' — PolitiTweet.org

.@cochranereturns Black and Red are the traditional colours of *all* anarchists everywhere. However, in Ukraine they are - more importantly - the colours favoured (and still much used) by those who treasure the memory of Bandera and his movement. — PolitiTweet.org

@Freebirdsoars I don't think it's the *numbers* that are the point about Bandera. It's that he wasn't very nice, and that it's odd, therefore, to admire him. If he'd ever had a full-scale state machine under his control, no doubt his numbers would be higherr. — PolitiTweet.org
