No, it isn't Simey. It's presumption of guilt. Interetsingthat you happiluy do it, but won't own up to it when challenged. Typical of the absurd Ukraine-worship now in operation. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

No , .@jameshandscombe it is not. You are far from being a shrinking violet here yourself, I note. I suspect you are just scared of trying and failing to justify your silly remark. I don't blame you. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

But you did .@simongwynn. You said he would have been prosecuted, and then you said he *would* now be in prison. That is a straight presumption of guilt. If you disapprove ( as I do) of his shameful locking up of Tymoshenko, then you shouldn't endorse mirror-image actions. — PolitiTweet.org

.@jameshandscombe. This is the way I use twitter. It seems entirely polite to me. You are free not to engage, but I am anxious to discover which article of mine you have criticised in these terms, so that I can discover what your case is, or if you have one. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@jameshandscombe, which article are you referring to? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Yeah, of course, political violence is quite unknown in Ukraine, especially since early 2014 @simongwynn. I love your Beatrix Potter version of events. — PolitiTweet.org

OK, @cheeky ark1917, I will restrain myself on the subject of Clive James, just this once. — PolitiTweet.org

.@JamesHandscombe How naive to think that all issues are thoroughly researched, impartially and universally. I find people who cannot accept that humanity has ever made any mistakes are the ones who claim (without evidence) that their opponents think there was once a golden age. — PolitiTweet.org

No @jameshandscombe, the artcle, were you to read it with any attention, describes an absolute decline of standards, hidden by grade inflation,objectively recorded by a major University (& the Engineering Council) . Can you point to any reason to believe this has been reversed? — PolitiTweet.org

At 2 hours 3 mins into Nick Abbott's LBC show (link below) I explain why Suella Braverman's proposal to reclassify marijauana as a Class 'A' drug is political bilge, which will have no practical effect https://t.co/If1DMpEbKD — PolitiTweet.org

.@tabitasurge I do not think, or appear to think, anything of the kind. I do however *know* that school pupils in English, Welsh and Scottish chools faced much harder examinations before the abolition of academically selective secondary schools than they do now. — PolitiTweet.org

Well @jameshandscombe,if you are examing events which took place 20 years ago,and in some cases even further back, you will tend to find that the evidence is 20 years old or older. Sorry you don't ike the sample size, but do you have anything better, except your own complacency? — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting instance of the presumption of guilt, @simongwynn. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@simongwynn. Well, It is most unlikely that Ukraine, a badly-governed, divided ill-defended country with enormous, urgent internal problems (principally corruption) would have picked a fight with Russia unless it had some, er, encouragement. Can't think where from @simongwynn . — PolitiTweet.org

.@Oldfather_john Pollyanna has nothing on you. Since the 2014 putsch Ukraine has been violently divided, it has no major opposition party, and it remains Olympically corrupt. Meanwhile, opposition is often suppressed. Don’t be such a sucker. — PolitiTweet.org
