"How many of your way of thinking went on loving Stalin until Khruschev et al generously allowed them to perceive the truth, eh Jim? "
You once, somewhat McCarthy-like tried to find my politics, you failed miserably.
Now you resort, as your kind always do, to resort to smears in a rather desperate attempt to implicate me with Stalinism.
You really didn't take a long-enough spoon to that dinner party as I advised you to do – you have become every bit as crudely squalid as your protégé

From the BBC news.
Baroness Thatcher has accused the UK Government of acting like a police state in sanctioning the arrest and extradition case against Chile's General Augusto Pinochet.
Her defence of the former Chilean dictator at a fringe meeting at the Conservative Party conference was every bit as strong as expected, but although Lady Thatcher was greeted with an ovation her reception was more muted than many had expected.
She told Tories in Blackpool it was vital for the party to fight the government on this case.
"We must pay heed to the implications of an international lynch law, which under the guise of defending human rights now threatens to subvert British justice and the rights of sovereign nations."
