Oh ho ho! What a move by The National to have Owen Jones as the new columnist. Hahahaha!

Have a look at what's happened to Owen Jones youtube channel recently:

Scroll down to see the massive increases in subscribers and views, and note when this started.

This is the type of content Jones has been publishing to capitalise on this:

@Rainbowshit Jesus wept. Why doesn't he just go away and leave Britain in peace? He's an anitsemitic pos.

I can't see him ever leaving the Guardian but I thought they had a rule that you couldn't work for them and write for other publications? I'm sure that was why at least one columnist (whose name now escapes me but not Hadley or Suzanne) left.

Bit of a coup for The NatOnal. The editor said on Twitter that their readers would appreciate his thoughts on Palestine. 🙈🙈

Ooh no second thought tell me he's not moving here 😱

Chersfrozenface · 06/01/2024 03:11

I doubt whether he's leaving the Graun. I soiled my eyes checking, and the last piece he had in that rag is dated 22 December 2023.

A fair few writers, to use the phrase loosely, have columns in more than one publication, again to use the term loosely.

BTW, I was a Guardian reader for 50 years plus, until the gender ideology takeover.

😂 is that OJ the YouTube chap?

impressive to find a way to fill the National with more shite mind!

Codlingmoths · 06/01/2024 02:59

Is he stepping down from the Guardian? Seems a strange move.

Hoardasurass · 06/01/2024 02:25

Hmm I wonder why oj would take such a huge step down going from the guardian to the national is not a good career move 🤔

So I wasn't far off with guessing toilet block then. More like toilet paper 😂

The Isle of Arran Shoemakers' Monthly sells more copies than that.

Oh dear.

Waitwhat23 · 05/01/2024 23:35

The National - a comically shite newspaper with an embarrassingly shite circulation. Wouldn't use it to wrap my fish supper, particularly if it was an edition with OJ's musings in it.

The National is a Scottish newspaper. Pro independence propaganda.

The National what? Newspaper, museum, ghetto, toilet block?

Either way, does this mean he has two jobs or did he part ways with the original?
