Of course he's not going to say sorry about being one of the big media figures that came out saying huw was innocent of the first set of claims of giving a vulnerable teen with drug issues cash for "performance" media and grooming.

I'm surprised even for him that he's going down this not illegal route when he contradicts himself and first said that the sun was accusing him of illegality.

Is this twit still around? Honestly, if he was ever made to work for a living he'd have a nervous breakdown. Bloke should be warehoused in a psychiatric asylum. (He ain't alone either ... many of his 'type' who appear on television as 'talking heads' have severe personality disorders).

Look, it's not their fault and I have sympathy. The commercial television industry is rotten to the core for paying these people to appear on their programmes as a diversion between the gambling and soap adverts they rely upon for income.
 
Once people like Owen finally realize the game is up they play the mental health or neuro-diversity card. They jump on the current bandwagon of monetizing their real or imagined mental health 'issues'. I foresee a me me me me memoir about all of his various 'struggles'. A real page-turner and uplifting tome just in time for christmas. :rolleyes:

"...I knew I had reached rock-bottom when I thought I heard the photo-copier telling me to jump out of the window at Guardian HQ ...."

The photocopier, a Tory TERF machine programmed by the cishet white Western capitalist hegemony, was issuing microaggressions with every sheet of paper. I slammed my Macbook shut in despair. I could bear it no longer.

"The colour of the paper was mocking me, sheet by sheet. White. White privilege pouring-out of the infernal machine. In many ways the humble photocopier is the ultimate totem of colonialism ...."


Seriously, if we put our minds together we could ghost write his enevitable memoir. :ROFLMAO:
 
You'd have to be a complete fool to think anything Owen says is new or revolutionary

This comment on an article sums up Owen Jones far better than I ever could:

Owen Jones is far from unusual. He is, in many respects, a bog-standard Guardian leftie – self satisfied, arrogant, incapable of originality and prone to repackaging his various hatreds of those more successful than him, as compassion for [insert favoured victim group].

It is amazing to me that of all the original thinkers I have met coming from Oxford, that the Guardian should choose someone as remarkable for his lack of talent and imagination as Owen Jones. He invariably regurgitates failed slogans from the 1970s and presents them as though they are the magical outcome of his own brilliance. It takes a special kind of narcissism and lack of self awareness to do that. (https://unherd.com/2022/04/how-the-guardian-enables-owen-jones/)
