.@kennyedw. Oh, do grow up. I thought we should act proportionately on the basis of evidence, experience and reason, rather than wildly, through speculative fear. — PolitiTweet.org

I only heard about this short, devastating book a few days ago and know nothing of its author. But everyone should try to get hold of and read its urgent, well-researched arguments. https://t.co/kTmyVKGonr — PolitiTweet.org

.@ladygreenkirltle Yes, it was a bit of a survival in a largely modern car-dominated concrete city. I seem to recall a rather nice old-fashioned tea place in the street. I doubt it survives now. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Of course.@kimberleypipet. I didn’t spend all that time and use all that effort writing the book so that nobody would know it existed. Why shouldn’t I seek attention? What do you think advertising is? But I cannot afford that. — PolitiTweet.org

Still unreviewed by the unpopular papers, still unstocked and undisplayed by most leading bookshops, my new book, an original examination of a major topic. https://t.co/o1lRBLXFbd — PolitiTweet.org

I wish he would .@mrbiswaz .@douglaskmurray It still creates a gulf between us which I wish was not there. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I genuinely felt that if @douglaskmurray and Charles Moore had joined the opposition to the Covid Panic *at the start* , we would have been spared much of the madness. Some voices have huge power to influence. Mine wasn't remotely enough. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

2/2 .@high_tories Loyal opposition never does any *harm* to a good policy. It merely forces that policy's supporters to make a better case and conduct it more competently. Opposition only endangers a bad policy. If you believe a policy's wrong, you shouldn't hesitate to say so. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

1/2 .@high_tories. Cautious maybe. But what was there to be unsure about? The measures were unprecedented, untried and unprepared, their alleged effect wholly unproven. By contrast the vast and lasting damage they would do was perfectly obvious, as was their totalitarian origin. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@bleakrobot. How do you know what I do not consider or have not considered? I do not reject policies without considering them. I reject them *because* I have considered them and found them wanting, or actively wrong. You can see how I do this by reading my books. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@Aaronbastani the book is not about the phoney war or called 'The Phoney War'. It is called 'The Phoney Victory' , and with good reason. Why can't people get this simple thing right? https://t.co/aDazWUToiz — PolitiTweet.org

Here are some reasons: .@curtainsilicon. https://t.co/CVDClFRBGf — PolitiTweet.org

.@curtainsilicon. It was my impression that it was all Lukashenko's own work . But I can tell that you love using the word 'siloviki' .For Belarus in general, please see: https://t.co/nP3okmq8oG — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Please do. Remember it was written in 1997, long before the GWU archive of Western promises not to expand NATO became public. And of course before the 2008 NATO Summit at which G.W.Bush began to push for Ukrainian NATO membership. — PolitiTweet.org

Despite using my telescope 🔭 *and* my microscope🔬 I can detect no reviews of my new book 'A Revolution Betrayed' in the unpopular papers this week so far. I am not, as it happens, at all surprised. — PolitiTweet.org

.@joshwhitehead34. Looks good, though I shall always treasure my four much-underlined (often in revolutionry red) and now very tatty Penguin volumes from the late 1960s. — PolitiTweet.org

2/2 .@curtainsilicon. Please read this 1997 article by Rodric Braithwaite, a man who truly knows and understands Russia, and see how great an opportunity we squandered in 1991: https://t.co/p1MZFFxKoy — PolitiTweet.org
