Yeah, quite right .@jjones_nota , free speech should only be for people who agree with the Government , and anyone else should be called defamatory names and kept off the airwaves. — PolitiTweet.org

.@GrahamB69496791 No, was born in Malta when it was part of the British Empire. I did live in the USSR, and then in Russia,as a resident newspaper correspondent, from June 1990 to October 1992 & have returned several times since.What was it that I said with which you disagreed? — PolitiTweet.org

I think .@juliahb1 accepts that there will be talks in the end. But she dies not share my view that they should take place now. — PolitiTweet.org

'If Ukraine has a right to self-determination why wasn't it allowed to keep its democratically-elected President, whose violent, lawless overthrow in 2014 the West, to put it mildly, did little to oppose?' Part of my debate today with @juliahb1 — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@juliahb1 , will .@talktv be posting a recording of our debate this morning? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

If so .@parkerbats that is because I always look taken abackl (it's the eyebrows, I think). @Juliahb1 behaved politely and fairly, and it was a robust, civil exchange. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Yeah indeed .@rimackie, all those uninterrupted speeches at Chatham House, all those respectful interviews on the BBC, and next week I'm addressing a joint session of both Houses of Congress , at which a standing ovation of two minutes is planned. I badly need to be challenged. — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting that in this debate it was @juliahb1, not I, who dismissed as impossible any peace settlement which did not involve Ukraine giving up territory. — PolitiTweet.org

'"Society needs pessimists; it probably needs optimists too, but I can't for the life of me think why'. A conversation between me and BBC scourge Robin Aitken. 16,000 have already seen it. You may watch here : https://t.co/pkHIkBYA7u — PolitiTweet.org

RT @115tpryan: @JuliaHB1 @ClarkeMicah @TalkTV Can you think of anything worse on radio than listening to these two hugely inflated egos? — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

.@thebluntlaser. The purpose of debate is not the destruction of an opponent but the holding of a serious argument in which those watching are educated. Good for Julia, for taking part. There's an appetite for this. — PolitiTweet.org

Nearly 15,000 have now watched this conversation between me and Robin Aitken, scourge of BBC bias, since it was released a few days ago. You may watch it here https://t.co/pkHIkBYA7u — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Why @toonpaddymal? By what rule or logic? If, like you, I wanted more war, I would not be obliged to draw up a Ukrainian battle plan. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

Obviously the more recent Cochrane Review thinks otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

2/2 .@scottberry912. I have thought about it a great deal, as it happens. And my main conclusion is that peace is better than war and that a price must be paid for that good end. I think you just wish to grandstand your recently discovered Ukrainophilia. — PolitiTweet.org

Peter Hitchens @ClarkeMicah

1/2 On the contrary: it may be *fair*.@scottberry912, but it is also silly, as I've less than no power to influence the outcome;It's designed to trap me into a statement to which you will then respond 'How *dare* you suggest Ukraine gives up one square inch of land etc etc etc?' — PolitiTweet.org
