I loved the strained thankyou at the end. I’m guessing it wasn’t a ‘get laid’ set for Peter that day.

Hitchens is right but his accusation of ‘office without principle’ can be charged against the entire political class.

Britain today: Labour’s lax morality has helped standards crash through the floor. Just look around you.
But people are truly waking up, not with just a little help from the Web.

Why do they give that creep Iain Dale air. He’s a nobody who’s failed to get elected to Parliament why writes a pretty poor blog.

Peter Hitchens is such a dork
He’s a complete nobody compared to his brother

Hitchens, as enlightening as always! Both brothers are bright, but Peter is (in my opinion) the brighter.

OH GILLYMAN,
REPENT.
RENOUNCE SATAN AND THE WORM, AND PUT YOUR LIFE IN THE HANDS OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, OUR SAVIOUR AND GOD.
GOD LOVES YOU SO MUCH THAT HE SENT HIS *ONLY SON* TO DIE FOR YOUR SINS, SO THAT YOU COULD AVOID ETERNAL HELL, AND SPEND ETERNITY WITH THE LORD, WORSHIPPING AND PRAISING HIM IN ALL HIS PERFECT GLORY.
THE WORMETH DOES NOT DIE IN HELL, BUT LIFE IS ETERNAL IN HEAVEN
CHOOSE THE LORD OVER THE WORM
HALLELUJAH
AMEN.
