While Christopher continues to sink deeper into his alcohol- and chemotherapy-fueled maelstrom of accelerated senile dementia, the latest result of which is a deluded attempt to blame anyone but himself for the current situation in Iraq, we are fortunate that his younger brother Peter and his old adversary George Galloway still have a least most of their marbles and are quite capable of holding a civil, sensible and adult discussion on a topic of general import. In this case the topic is British prisons, but the two men extend this to include addiction, education and Peter's personal holy cow of personal responsibility. It's nice to listen to two people who disagree about so much politically and yet they are capable of finding a lot of common ground and also of showing each other sincere respect, and this is something you don't often encounter when one of the speakers is Christopher. And this is a major reason why I am so tired of watching, reading or listening to him even on those increasingly rare occasions when he does make sense.
