We’re really pleased to have Dr Pitt back this year, and our students absolutely love him!

It is a great honour to have been invited to deliver this,my final lecture at @PoliticsatHull @UniOfHull, by my colleagues @LordNortonLouth and Dr Matt Beech, and to become a Senior Fellow of @CBPhull. The time is long overdue to rethink the politics/politicaleconomy of #England.

I would rather lose with Kirk and Scruton than win with Lenin. #Kirktober
