@tezcatli. You know little of Trotskyism. Its whole driving force is a loathing of Stalin and Stalinism. On Lenin, it’s a bit more equivocal. But in any case, I ceased to be a Trotskyist in 1975. Like many ex-Marxists, I’m more hostile to Marxism than those who never embraced it. — PolitiTweet.org

.@nukkumass22 . Xi is an executive President with limitless powers.China is a Communist one-party police state, without an adversarial parliament, a free press or the rule of law. Do you know *nothing* about constitutional monarchy? — PolitiTweet.org

Yes, but we don’t need to buy it — PolitiTweet.org

@evolutionplants , as you very well know, I said a good deal more than that, a fact anyone can check. My main concern was to be both fair and truthful. Do you wish to discuss this seriously, or are you just a propagandist? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

You are right @jprnyct. Thank you. — PolitiTweet.org

Why is there no slot for ‘Bilge’? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Why is it ‘misinformation’ @mikeaaronhall? Just using this word proves nothing. The Times is about as pro-war as any medium in the U.K.. Why would they do such a thing? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@louisemensch has not bothered to check a) the reasons given by the FCDO,or b) my actual defence of Phillips, its nature and tone. Nor have you. This is because you’re not interested in serious discussion, just in smearing. You choose this sordid corner of life. I’m sorry for you — PolitiTweet.org

There was strong resistance to Zelensky’s peace plan, orchestrated by Poroshenko and the Neos . Street protests were not the only pressure applied. Interestingly, Zelensky’s peace was defamed as ‘capitulation’. I get this lie now. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

In other words, no case to answer @mikeaaronhall. Because there are neo-Nazis in Ukraine, and especially in its armed forces. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

But they didn’t @mikeasronhall. They lacked the votes required by the constitution. — PolitiTweet.org

@cotadomiz . Yes, I do know what I am doing. When I was in the Labour Party in the 1980s, I was one of a tiny few in my branch who supported the monarchy. — PolitiTweet.org

Probably @outragedlady . They are more consistent and honourable than Blair. — PolitiTweet.org

@trevormfisher I attended those Labour conferences. The ovations were ludicrous -except that the party machine plainly took them seriously. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@tubewaysrmy. No, I did not. This is what I said: ‘PETER HITCHENS: A long war in Ukraine will bring nothing but death, poverty and ruin. It's time for peace’ https://t.co/ZVtsCksNrB — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@coradomoz . Because I know that republicanism is very strong in the Labour Party, but its expression has long been suppressed for fear of public opinion. That is why no Labour conference has discussed it since a perfunctory debate in 1923. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

I would expect this has been done before in private MPs have been able to affirm for ages. But @kulambq, the fascinating thing is that Starmer chooses to make a public stand of his religious opinions. I keep trying to tell people that he’s an actual revolutionary not a ‘moderate’ — PolitiTweet.org

I really don’t see what China has to do with it. If anything China would benefit from the disintegration of Russia which US policy aims are — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

It’s good to see Labour being honest and open about its hatred for constitutional monarchy . But you should have seen these guys worshipping Blair, like Red Guards applauding Mao, or the adoring multitudes who endured Castro’s endless speeches. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Yes. He knows what he is talking about, a rare thing in the Ukraine debate. He knows the area, the people and how his own government works. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

@basedhoopart. I do not ‘support’ anyone in this stupid needless war. I want it to stop and have taken the same view since the moment it began. War is not some sort of sport. It is hell. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

You are such a buffoon. I was the one saying for years before this that Russia’s armed forces were greatly overrated. This has always been my position. Now this is demonstrated, the last 30 years of fear-driven NATO expansion look pretty overdone. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Of course it did, just as the deranged idiot Napoleon III began the Franco-Prussian war. But you’d need to be a prize idiot not to realise that Bismarck provoked and wanted that war. — PolitiTweet.org
