I hate the Daily Mail but I think Peter Hitchen is an interesting journalist - from the International Socialists (SWP) in the 70s through to Thatcherite Toryism 20/30 years later - and always in the shadow of his younger brother - to a new position now that is sometimes right populist and sometimes a return to his roots.
His brother Christopher was mightily impressive intellectually and his courage and dignity in his final days was to be respected.
