1/2 Blair had gone .@abram_marba , but the Blairites were still there (they're still there now). And the creation of the 'Supreme Court' was one of the things they were most determined to do. — PolitiTweet.org

Here https://t.co/FihJwkhJaD I discuss my new book '(A Revolution Betrayed) the destruction of grammar Schools on a @Spectator Podcast (The View from 22). — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I didn't ask you that, @cpmasterson . Tell me, was anyone in the KLA ever indicted or convicted? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

No doubt @jprnyct, but the discussion between me and @shaun_hutchings was about what word the King James Version uses. — PolitiTweet.org

An Open Letter from Editors and Publishers: Publishing is Not a Crime | The New York Times Company https://t.co/1BvOeOTc1E — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I think this declaration by several leading newspapers is excellent and should be heeded by the US Government, and the UK Government. . Publishing is not a crime ad the attempt to prosecute and extradite Julian Assange should cease. https://t.co/1BvOeOTc1E — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

No, .@OmShanti1504 though a number of people have made persuasive suggestions that they are devices for highly protected communications. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@cpmasterson. Do you have comparative figures for convictions? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@cpmasterson I didn't realise I was. I blame western governments for the harm they demonstrably do, as in Iraq, Libya, Syria etc, and for their intolerable hypocritical moralising, while they prop up so many ghastly regimes. One or the other. Not both — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@juliahb1. Can you give me chapter and verse on that? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@cpmasterson. You are the audience propagandists dream of. Milosevic was not the only leader in former Yugoslavia who engaged in ethnic persecution. Also, the ‘West’ often ignores outrageous behaviour by tyrants it likes, from Saddam to Sisi. Do try a little scepticism. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Alas, @shaun_hutchings, you made up the sentiments you attributed to me in the tweet to which I responded. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Thanks @drakesdrum2 They have a very secret look about them and I was surprised to see them in a totally public location. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@shaun_hutchings, You made up the thing you accused me of saying, in the tweet to which I responded by saying that I disliked people making things up.. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@stevemayman Can’t see why they would, but I have a prior engagement in Cambridge that evening, anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Sophistry, .@cpmasterson. They did not regard the undoubted risk of killing innocents as a bar to taking the action which duly led to those innocent deaths. Therefore, however tragic they were, they regarded those deaths as justified. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@cpmasterson I did not say those wars were 'waged with the intention of executing innocents'. I said that their supporters believed they were a benevolent action, and that the resulting deaths of innocents were therefore justified. You have wholly missed my point. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

No doubt , @johndstats, but I don't think UK law permits religious wedding ceremonies in secular wedding venues. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Thank you @texaslionel. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@shaun_hutchings Stop making things up. It annoys me more than almost any other Twitter behaviour. The question was about what word was used in the KJV. That's a matter of fact. Your *opinion* plainly differs from mine. I can and will cope. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@drakesdrum2. Thank you. They are on top of a building next to the Admiralty in London. What sort of satellite communications would they be useful for? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I don't know what they are, @GaryFlo29335543 — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@danmuygallo. They are on top of a government building overlooking Horseguards Parade in London. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

It answers, as you know, your claim that I had 'decide[d] that the KJV 's poetic truth doesn't count this time'. In this you are factually incorrect. Your argument about what constitutes murder is assertion. By what definition of murder is it so? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Anyone know what these are? https://t.co/ddEjG7gpIO — PolitiTweet.org
