I thought I was fairly politically savvy, however, Peter Hitchens has opened my eyes particularly how far left the European Union is, and also Keir Starmer’s position on the extreme left of the political spectrum, which partially explains his labelling of ordinary centrist people who disagree with him, as being far right. The West seriously needs some strong centre right leadership who can recognise the insidious take over by the Marxist infiltration of the education and other institutions, and be able to expose the chicanery, and successfully combat it.

@carltaylor64522 сағат бұрын
Peter might be correct about Starmer's past - I'm sure he is - but it doesn't necessarily tell us much about his present attitude to things (which I see as primarily opportunist, although he is a very opaque personality). For instance, I was a member of a far left Trotskyite group in the early 1990s and thought that Peter Hitchens was insane. (I also thought back then that Labour Party members like Starmer were reformist scum; my attitude to the LP hasn't changed that much, tbh 😁.) Roll on thirty years and I don't suppose Peter and I would disagree about a lot of stuff. That Starmer once attended a Czech work camp 30+ years ago is neither here nor there; I'd like to know whether he would recommend Genz visit North Korea today, for example, for cultural and political education. That would tell me something about him.
@carltaylor64522 сағат бұрын
Incidentally, there is a linguistic and 'cultural' tell that members and ex-members of the far and Trotskyite left have that you can detect quite easily if you've been in it and they haven't grown out of it. Peter's right about that, and he's right about the long march through the institutions; I'm just not sure that he takes enough account of how some people change; he did himself, after all.

@RaveyDavey we still have control of our government, haven't you noticed the radical 180 degree change we just implemented? Meanwhile UK citizens are off to the gulag if they speak out.

Bullshit. If you didn't know he was Christopher's brother, you would never have guessed. His voice has a completely different quality.

@@DieFlabbergast Bullshit yourself. His voice is obviously similar, with a matching cadence and timbre, remarkably close in it's laconic drawl. All you've done is to demonstrate you're somebody who fails to listen carefully - and misses any nuance in discussion, disagreement or conversation. x

Doesn’t really add up with his undeniably centre-left / centrist economic policy though. Hitchens has some historical points but very few present ones. Good fireside chat though (although that one looks defunct)

Not sure if Peter understands the difference between leftism, progressivism and liberalism.

Hitchens a bit rude only acknowledging Konstantin and just ignoring or talking over the other dude, not even looking at him. Eyes only for Kisin.
