2/2 .@AlisonH73216123 . Why on earth would I despise a legitimate complaint? Many years ago a rare conservative bookshop manager demonstrated to me, in his town, how many more people my books would have reached nationally, if this bigotry did not exist. It was shocking. — PolitiTweet.org

.@AlisonH73216123 Certainly not. It is the truth. If publishing and the book industry were not so petulantly and bitterly prejudiced against conservative ideas, then they would get a much wider circulation. People should know that the book trade is not neutral, but bigoted. — PolitiTweet.org

.@DAVIDHA21624607 The whole point? Hardly. The transmission of morals, knowledge, culture, literature , music etc surely comes first. But for sure a country without a good school system will eventually be ruled by the stupid, rich and brutal alone. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah The whole point of an education system is to establish a hierarchy based upon merit.
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Since it is unlikely to be reviewed, let alone reviewed by anyone who has actually read it, here's what my new book 'A Revolution Betrayed' is about. It's out now (but few bookshops will stock it). Also as an e-book and an audiobook read by me: https://t.co/MwzbjfkdUB — PolitiTweet.org
Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah
Not available in most leading bookshops. Probably not reviewed(and if so seldom if ever by someone who has actually read it) . But yes, now published. My new book on the crazy destruction of the best schools we ever had. https://t.co/a64PWK7UZ5 — PolitiTweet.org

Because tests at 11 can rescue poor children from failure. Tests at 16 and 18 cement the existing class system. — PolitiTweet.org

Now available in normal book form as an E-book and as an audio-book - but not obtainable from most leading bookshops and unlikely to be reviewed, especially by anyone who has actually read it. https://t.co/V7Rtcrl7Ug — PolitiTweet.org
