to Matthew Parris in today’s Times.
Our enemies want a fight, so here’s a novel suggestion. Let’s not oblige. Let’s keep our tanks and helicopters and cluster bombs locked within our armouries; let’s keep listening and watching and arresting and bringing to court; let’s keep our liberties and accord them theirs; and let’s carry on treating these people for what they are: a big, bloody nuisance.
Holy shit in a hotdog bun. Matthew Parris talking sense? These are the end times I tell you.
Did you here him and Hitchens bitching at each other on Great Lives. Hilarious it was. Three odious people in one studio getting worked up about Trotsky.
oh, I quite like Parris.
but I wouldn’t piss on Hitchens if he were on fire.
Neither would I. In fact I’d add fuel to the fire.
