About this listen

 Peter Hitchens puts forward his defence of ‘Whataboutery and asks why does the west delight in attacking its current enemies like Putin for things it allows its friends like Tayip Erdogan to do with impunity? What is it with all this posturing hypocrisy?

Or, as she puts it, what makes your sky fairy more important than my sky fairy? She may have a point.
