Owen Jones column in The National

[ArtfullyCrumpled]

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

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?

?

The National is a Scottish newspaper. Pro independence propaganda.

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.

Oh dear.

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

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

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 🤔

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

😂 is that OJ the YouTube chap?

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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:

He's so consumed with his Jew hatred that he's forgotten to hate women for a while.

Owen Jones has been contributing stuff to The National since at least 30 March 2023, and his latest thing for the Graun was dated 22 December 2023, so he's been scribbling for both for some time, evidently.

Is The National touting him as a new regular columnist now, rather than, say, as occasional contributor?

A very long time ago, I knew a man who thought that women rule the world, and men are just their catspaws, and that's why they have to do all the fighting and the heavy work.

Hmm, thought I. So the world is run by a secret cabal of people who, in real life, are subjected to discrimination and violence. I wonder what that reminds me of?

Years later, he came out as transgender. They haven't let him join the secret cabal yet though, the bigots.

I can only assume he’s been snarky about Scot’s at some point so that won’t go down well.

who funds this comic? I can’t believe it is self funding.

Yup, even though the women-bashing was front and centre the antisemitism was always rumbling away in the background. The events of the last couple of months has given him an audience for the latter (beyond even his wildest dreams could have wished for). So he's pretty much come out as a full blown antisemite. Which is pretty profitable for grifters like him, so he's living his best life right now IMO and probably can't believe his luck.

I don't reckon he has plans to leave the Graun either unless he's pushed. But I think he's spreading his wings to other broadsheets in case his days are numbered there, especially if he knows himself his comments are becoming more outlandish and hate-filled by the day.

The drugs comments yesterday were a new low and he knew fine well what he was doing putting the comments out there.

Defence of Palestinians is one of the very few things that the toxic gnome gets right. Strange to see so many so-called feminists keen to dismiss as anti-semitism any criticism of the slaughter of tens of thousands of women and children.

I don't think defence of Palestinians is antisemitism, far from it. I do however think antisemitism is antisemitism and in my opinion he's been reeking of it for the last 10 years or so.

It doesn't appear to be funded by the Scottish Government -
