This is Peter Hitchens��� Mail on Sunday column

PETER HITCHENS: We've all turned from normal humans into muzzled masochists

CaptureThis is Peter Hitchens��� s Mail on Sunday column


When this madness began, I behaved as if a new and fanatical religion was spreading among us. Be polite and tolerant, I thought. It may be crazy and damaging but in time it will go away.


Now it is clear that a new faith, based on fear of the invisible and quite immune to reason, has all but taken over the country. And it turns out to be one of those faiths that doesn't have much tolerance for those who don't share it.
