Peter Hitchens a chronicler of day-to-day life, and like Scruton, he has the pretensions of being a Burkean, whatever that might mean in the 21st Century. Yet Hitchens seems far less pretentious, and is a far better essayist than Scruton. He's also much more funny, and can elucidate the specifics of political pathos in a way that conjures Graham Greene or George Elliot.

Even if Hitchens doesn't practice your brand of deliberation, you should be able to admit his talent. I wish Hitchens wrote a book of character studies or even a novel about a British life in the 1970's.

That doesn't make anyone right-wing. Much less in the Soviet context, when the actual "Right Opposition" where the ones with more taste for democracy and trust on the masses.
