He's an ex-bolshevik and has written extensively about why he isn't anymore. Good to see and hear his opinions again, though, and especially to hear him giving them to a young lad who has the courtesy to listen and converse in a civilised manner that his (presumably young) audience need to see and emulate but don't always do.

What interests me is the complete and utter lack of any meaningful reckoning on whether these drastic measures were appropriate. In Belgium, where I live, we suffered months of very harsh lockdown. However, there are numerous strong reasons to believe the lockdown did nothing; that we hit saturation irrespective of it: -the unlocking, now almost complete, occured without any noticable spikes following its various phases. -'essential workers' such as supermarket workers suffered no higher rate of hospitalisation/death than the general population, despite being out and about at the hottest phase of the epidemic and without any PPE in early April. If this is so, one would expect a serious reckoning. Yet the population seems mostly just happy to get back to business. No one is asking any questions.

Studies have also shown that people with active social lives are happier and have stronger immune systems.

In my local Sainsbury's and Asda stores in Oswestry, (Shropshire) there have been stacks of cases of Corona lager in prominent positions adjacent to the checkouts and in the main aisles since mid - May (I have taken photos on my iPhone to prove it). Intrigued by the apparent 'coincidence' of the choice of Corona lager as a 'special promotion', I proceeded to the aisle in Sainsbury's dedicated to Beers and Cider where I counted 46 different varieties of foreign beers. Now, you really will have to excuse my jaundiced, world-weary cynicism, but it seems more than just a shade coincidental that the Managers of both these stores should have chosen the 23rd March 'Lockdown' as an opportunity to promote what seems to me to be a relatively obscure foreign lager. This seems to me to be a deliberate attempt at subliminal programming. It might be interesting to find out whether other stores - and supermarket chains - are involved in this, and if so, whether this is being done for some sinister common purpose.

I get so worried looking at current and future generations, knowing we have gems like peter hitchens and fucking no one in our generation holds a candle to him. Each generation just keeps getting worse/softer.

Brilliantly staged interview. Thanks for leaving in the ordering of the pints. These real moments are so fascinating. Wish Peter had taken a good glug of beer though. He sips and the level barely goes down 😂

He's like some sort of Harry Potter wizard teacher lol

Right on!

“I’d rather have skimmed milk than Corona” 😂😂😂

Couple of things: Peter is not a regular pub goer, as he nicked that statement about going to the pub from Sumption, who said it first. Secondly, he has become a massive grouch, but I think that that may have something to do with the abuse that he has endured over the years from the fools who dislike him rather than disagree with him. Would love to have a drink with Mr Hitchens, as he would flow after a few 3.5 lagers.

I adore this man. Thanks for the interview.

A great, intelligent man and a fantastic, insightful interview. Cheers 🍺

"We're still in the lovely smooth shallows that lead to the lip of Niagra..." Does he come up with these wonderfully apt visual metaphors off the cuff? Very good either way!

Brilliant

Measured, reasoned and principled. A journalist with integrity and a commitment to truth. No surprise the MSM won’t have Mr HItchens on. And him ordering a beer is as entertaining as I always imagined it to be!

Peter 100% right!

The Hitchens Brothers: Peter “I’ll have an ABV of 3.5% please.” Christopher "Johnnie Walker, blue Label, Bring the bottle please. :)

Good to see Peter Hitchens, many thanks to him for keeping me sane throughout the dystopian crap of 'lockdown'.Keep Britain Free Everybody! Thank you for posting.

Christopher was asked about his brother Peter, he said "well, every family has one." Lol

Looks like their in the Devonshire Arms in Kensington, Stratford Road.

Am a labour voter but love listening to Peter, he's a very intelligent man I don't agree with most of what he says but enjoy he's interviews 😊

More of these - Peter is fantastic to listen to, so good to hear a differing opinion.

johnson is more like billy liar - that's the quote of the week

When the government, and the opposition, are in lockstep together, you know there are very bad things coming down the pipe for the average public.

Thankyou peter

I'd love to go to a pub with peter. Hopefully there wouldn't be any football hooligans who would fuck with me because i'm a soccer saying American lol. Long live Great Britain. Any Brit reading this, cheers from across the pond. I look forward to crossing it one day.

Peter hitchens, a man that trusts in his God given instincts/discernment.

How Germany in the 1930s and modern China slid into authoritarian nightmares used to really confuse me. Now I see us all on the way there, and it's clear to me. Most people don't actually want to be free. Most people will be told not to see the people dearest to them in life for months on end and actually just obey. It's terrifying.

Where do you get the idea that there were any good intentions behind these measures? From where I am standing it has looked from the start as though public safety was just being used as an excuse to impose draconian restrictions on whole populations.

I always enjoy listening to Peter Hitchens. I don’t agree with him on very much (including on coronavirus), but he’s unusually principled. Many conservatives (and non-conservatives) adhere to a socially enforced party line, on Brexit or on the Conservative Party or on rail nationalisation. Hitchens dissents from these conservative orthodoxies.

I don't think having principles are unusual, although given the plague of moral relativism and pandering, others might think so.

I’d love to go for a pint and a chat with Peter, and marvel at his Intellect. Thought I’d get the pints in!

Exactly Peter, well said on behalf of many of us.👏👏
