Love how everyone’s just here for the hitch slaps 😂

[@maxcream6726]

Enjoying the QT videos. Splitting the questions into chapter is a good touch.

[@pov_music]

Definitely great to see all these Hitchens related QT uploads - thanks for them!

[@agr7879]

When Hitchens speaks, I listen

[@sticksman1979]

“Any fool can answer that, almost.” Hitchslapped.

[@wallacecollect]

I love to see the expressions play on the faces of the Labour and Tory MPs when Hitchens calls them out - they are all fakes.

[@paulbarker5295]

Well said Peter Hitchens!

[@sticksman1979]

Peter put the time in 10 years ago and no one listened. He’s conceded defeat now which is a shame.

[@SwissCheese112]

what makes more sense to help the homeless/poverty problem. to give charities money/govt welfare. or to fix a broken society. starting with the married family, drug policy, and education policy. Peter Hitchens is completely right about all of this. Peter tackles the real problem, the root of it all, he doesn't focus on the results of the problems, that gets us nowhere.

[@nuuky]

As usual Peter Hitchens deep thought and reflection stands out but also highlights how the others on these panels miss many points with their conclusions.

[@philwilliams953]

You got a peerage for flogging beer!

[@susannamarker2582]

Stella Creasy likes to talk down to Peter Hitchens. Why ? Because he's right.

[@deeprelaxingprayer8849]

13:25 Well said Sister.

[@ivormctin6367]

It must have been a very quiet time in British politics if these were the questions of the day

[@davidgraham8058]

Politicians really do just blah out the same old lines just to get an applause. It’s pathetic.

[@ManForToday]

18:56 - called it! The persecution that goes on - livelihood, job, family, finances will be ripped apart - not jail, but just as bad in many subtle ways.

[@JW-ue1xg]

PH called this 10 years ago. Just incredible.

[@davidgraham8058]

Exactly. Try saying on X that there are only two genders and the police will come to your door.

[@thegameschanged1248]

Think you're onto something here, QT these days is 4 talentless MPs and a left-wing comedian

[@wallacecollect]

On the question asked to the panel on gay marriage, why didn't Justine Greening mention that she was a lesbian?

[@FarObserver]

YOU CANT STITCH THE HITCH 👊

[@susannamarker2582]

18:35 Back in the early 1980s, Anthony Charles Lynton Blair was fined £500 at Bow St Magistrates Court for solliciting young men in a public toilet. He gave his name as Charles Lynton and didn't appear in Court.

Bollocks. Stop spreading conspiracy theory BS. 😂

😂😂I would like to know the source of that very interesting

Keith Vaz wants a royal commission on drugs - Whatever happened to him!?

[@SagaciousFrank]

5:25 You know it's people like her who also pander to Islam, yet the irony is lost of them completely. Would love to see her say this about Muslims and Mosques, rather than targeting the Christian churches.

[@johnkohsamui6826]

Why is this conversation focused on the Church of England? Of course, no one wants to mention the Islamic view on the matter.

[@Hulks92]

Out of sight, out of mind is a major factor.

[@susannamarker2582]

Of course not. For one thing, Will Self is a communist. He hates christianity. Strange boy. Why hate a church ?

[@Chris-kz7us]

Surprised Stella wasn't breast feeding all the way through this

[@TM-yr3pc]

Stella Creasy is either staggeringly dim or dangerously trivial.

[@jimmynuggs5618]

Sadly: points raised are still relevant.

[@MontyCantsin5]

Not really. Take the point made at by David Dimbleby at 3:36 as one example. Heterosexual couples can now enter into civil partnerships (from 2019) so the strange idea that same sex couples are being treated preferentially by society is irrelevant.

[@Ennis85]

@@MontyCantsin5 "so the strange idea that same sex couples are being treated preferentially by society is irrelevant." Except they are very much treated preferentially by society.

[@MontyCantsin5]

@@Ennis85: Hardly. The very fact that there is still a struggle for LGBTQI+ rights all over the world shows that there is still a long way to go before they are treated the same way as those who identify as heterosexual.

[@blaxtru]

@@Ennis85 Do u inhabit planet Earth? To test your absurd hypothesis, sport a "Glad to be Gay" badge, choose your society and walk hand in hand, kiss and cuddle like any normal heterosexual does, and be subjected to being 'treated preferentially by society'.

[@Ennis85]

@@blaxtru Yeah how many laws have been passed granting them special "rights" again? How many days of the year it it now that are dedicated to the celebrations of their lifestyle? Who is more likely to be sanctioned or lose their job? A person who comes out as homosexual at their work place or a hetrosexual who states that marriage is the union between man and woman?

[@robmurphy1036]

How right he was

[@tsimpson318]

44:06 I like will self on some issues but how does he not understand some an elementary concept of enforcing laws reduces number of people from committing criminal acts.

Once again everything Peter Hitchens has predicted has become entirely true.

@@Philljag Cry? Why would I do that? 😂. Considering you were the one acting offended by someone else's admiration for Hitchens. And he's been spot on about literally everything he has said. Literally everything.

Will Self is an insufferable, smug see you next Tuesday.

Peter Hitchens is the most undercover comedian Britain ever had..

[@stephenmurray2851]

No he isn't. He's a prophet and has been right on basically everything
