@ukjiminLondon Paxman's svceptoicism is overstated, but he's been worse. The absurd thing, as usual, was that there was one opponent of drug legalisation(me) versus two proponents of it. Later they got over this probem by holding such discussions without*any* anti-drug panellist. — PolitiTweet.org

.@johnhundeslit It was actually about drug courts - a subject on which I had clearly done my homework. Was this why my two opponnets were so keen to change the subject? — PolitiTweet.org

@Marwood_PostLib @guffynicola @akshat_khan @ClarkeMicah And it's also beside the point—the argument was not about alcohol.

.@marcusjan__send, I debated perfectly well, fairly, reasonably and factually. Brand, abusive, unresponsive, ceaselessly interrupting me, did not. False equivalence of opposites. — PolitiTweet.org

.@chubbychaserlee. Perhaps. When, nearly 40 years ago, I was in the Parliamentary Lobby things were a bit like that. But by the time I made that film, I was no longer in that club, and in fact would have had trouble making it if I had been. — PolitiTweet.org

2/2 .@akshat_khan He is the one who believes in fantasies, such as 'an allergy of the body'. I am the one demanding objective evidence for subjectve claims. How is it then witty to suggest *I* believe in Santa Claus? You are easily amused. — PolitiTweet.org

1/2 But why is that funny .@akshat_khan? I had described a judge wearing track suit bottoms in court to get down with the kids. How was it witty to suggest I might do the same? The one thing people who write books on serious subjects *have* to do is read the books of others.... — PolitiTweet.org

@chubbychaserlee I met him once or twice at various occasions. He was, as you might expect, cool and amused to my face(less so in my absence, I think) . He knew that such programmes had little chance of undermining his enormous PR success. — PolitiTweet.org

.@aylmer51. No, I am pointing out that time zones are often highly political.CET was and remains a feature of German soft power. My main objection to non-GMT times in Britain is that they are unpleasant for humans, & futile. Summer evenings are the same *length* whatever you do. — PolitiTweet.org
