Peter Hitchens, writing for the Mail on Sunday, has cautioned against efforts to topple the Iranian government, arguing that such interventions often lead to unintended consequences. He made the remarks during an interview with David Aaronovitch of The Times, where the discussion touched on British politics and foreign policy.
Hitchens also criticised the state of British politics, stating that 'half the problem is so many people are thick'. He predicted that the upcoming May elections would result in a 'massacre' for the Liberal Democrats, suggesting the party faces significant losses at the polls.
The comments come amid ongoing debates about the UK's approach to Iran and domestic electoral dynamics. Hitchens has previously expressed scepticism about regime change operations, emphasising the risks of destabilising foreign governments.
