Please link! "Mantrum" just about sums the Owen Jones up. He's like a spoiled child.

Link please! It's awfully easy to upset him, isn't it?

If you go to his Twitter handle @owenjones84 and look back to his earlier tweets today you'll see it. ALL the toys are out of the pram!

"Never get in touch with me again!" - not sure that works on a public platform like twitter.

If he doesn't want people contacting him on Twitter it might help if he could restrain the urge to post 50 times a day. Just a suggestion.

I can’t see where he says that? Why is twitter so confusing...

I think Owen deleted most of his tweets. However that thread did give us this Grin

Have things been deleted? I can only see the start of the conversation. I don't understand Twitter.

Love Julie Bindel. I am not sure how to share the thread, it was so long, and it looks like some tweets have been deleted.

It started with Julie tweeting: At times like IWD I always think, ‘What would Owen Jones tell us to do?’

To deflect from debating with Julie, OJ immediately turned it to him being the victim with ever increasing faux outrage building to a 'Never get in touch with me ever again'.

I used to buy his books and go to see him speak, never again, he is such a massive twat.

I bought his book “chav...” years ago but can’t reakly remember it, wonder if maybe I didn’t finish it.

I didn’t know he was a twat. I thought he was a good guy.

I thought he was a good guy too, until he started with this #NoDebate and the wrong side of history nonsense.

Julie told him he has been a coward and it didn't go down too well.

Her first was pretty funny but we know he doesn't like debate so doesn't really engage in the issues raised.

He’s on Twitter, he tweets and he doesn’t like debate? How strange.

I used to like him on Questiontime as being kind of fresh and articulate, but now he's just turned into this weird wanker who knocks one out in his Twitter allotment shed and then turns his torch off and quietly walks home.
