    Man of wisdom. 13 years on and we still have the same issue. 13 years of the Conservative part on power. They have added to the cultural and demographic revolution occurring here.

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

      the difference is christopher remained submissive to marxist rhetoric his entire life where as peter pushed it out of his head and decided to combat it

      Agreed. Peter is brilliant and perceptive, but less eloquent than his late brother

    Dear God, if i didnt look at the date on this video, I would have thought it was released yesterday. It is the greatest tragedy of the century that no one listened to Peter Hitchens at the time.
    In this speech, they were laughing at him.
    No one is laughing now.

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

    This man should be the Prime Minister. Oh sorry, you have to have your common sense removed to be in office. What was I thinking?
