This, my fellow vipers, you do not want to miss.

“Whatever your point of view, award-winning Guardian columnist Owen Jones can help you to turn your knowledge and passion into a persuasive argument.”

Self-evidently our arguments have been a bit dippy and frivolous the last 5-7 years, so we really should acknowledge LOJ’s superior talent for persuasive arguing.

-and I’m sure we’d all get our money back if our point of view fails to persuade our teacher.

Well, to be fair, he's been very persuasive in getting people not to vote Labour over the last few elections, so maybe he does have a few tricks up his sleeve.

(Either that or his publicist's autocorrect has gone haywire over the word "masturbation".)

Surely this should be how to turn a persuasive argument into a petulant rant?

Happy to donate to someone who wants to do it, and return with receipts. Do you think Posy might do it?
Oh God please?

Julia would do it maybe? I mean I get that she's over qualified but she was over qualified to sit on a chair eating pizza but did that.

Posey would be a good choice. 😁

"Masterclass" and Owen Jones in the same sentence? Every day is a school day.

We should all sign up and time how many minutes before it's turned into A Masterclass in petulant tantrumming.
