It's Owen's trip to the seaside.

"The helter skelter offers no viable accommodation. No one in this day and age should be asked to sleep outside. On an incline"

Bugger bugger bugger.

I meant to pick up a copy today 😢

That was wonderful - Craig Brown has got the tone and the vocabulary down pat.

Thanks OP, I very much enjoyed that

The jellyfish tweets are priceless.

Excellent, that made me giggle like a little 'un laugh.

Why are they called funfairs? Unfair more like.

I did actually lol

He's not having a good time of it on Twitter.

Did anyone see this from a former Labour MP after they got into a Twitter spat after Dugher defended a former colleague against him.

I just read that this morning and it made me very happy to see a full page OJ take down.
Perfect parody of my least favourite journalist.
I can actually imagine those words being his own.

The jellyfish tweets are priceless.

I liked that he identified the problem, organised the campaign and made the Tories backdown, all within half a dozen tweets. Classic OJ.

He's not a journalist though - according to him.

He's a social commentator or some other definition.

Hmm. I’m no fan of Jones but mocking the rightful calling out of the tories isn’t something I find particularly funny.

"social commentator". Why wasn't i given that option in 'careers advice'? I got jewelry maker or nurse.

You just know that if the penny finally drops for little OJ and he realises that he's 'on the wrong side of history', it will all have been someone else's fault.

Probably ours.

Because some gender critical feminists are middle class he had to take a stand against them, so it will be literally their fault when it's just him and Cherno Biko left under the trans umbrella.

Craig Brown is so talented. Thanks for linking

Owen is middle class ffs.

I agree someone needs to hold the Tories to account, and if that's what he was doing then I'd swallow my gorge and support him in his writing. He doesn't. He spends more time making those outraged Morph sounds about people no one should approve of than he ever has about Tory policies.

"Did anyone see this from a former Labour MP after they got into a Twitter spat after Dugher defended a former colleague against him."

Yes.

Guido Fawkes

OJ accused him of swearing on Twitter.

Michael Dugher responded:

Yes. You’re quite right. I apologise unreservedly for swearing. You tedious sanctimonious fucker

Perfect parody of my least favourite journalist.

Opinion column writer.

Journalists do facts. Opinion writers don't.

Hmm. I’m no fan of Jones but mocking the rightful calling out of the tories isn’t something I find particularly funny

It's not really mocking the calling out if the Tories. It's mocking the sanctimonious style of OJs tweets. Which the author has done absolutely perfectly.

He does however have a very lovely cat. I hate it when people I don't like pose on social media with their cats. It makes me feel mean.

I think Ann Widdecombe started this with her Widdieweb- a site devoted to her cats. No matter what she had done the cats distracted you.

Popchyk, that was brilliant. Thanks for the link.

Yes it's difficult to square the love-cats-disdain-Owen-Jones-circle

His pussy is particularly nice

He is less-diplomatic than the likes of Katie Hopkins! He really can't stand anyone having a different opinion to him. I don't know how he got through Oxbridge!

Would it be wrong to change my name to OwenJones'sPussy?

Maybe OwenJones'Pussy

More elegant

Trumpdump by all accounts he got through by aggressively editing Wikipedia pages that said things he didn't like. No one argued with him there, so he probably now has an enormously inflated sense of the worth of his opinions and explains his inability to deal with even the mildest of criticism.
