Owen Jones, socialist political columnist in UK, who writes for the left-wing newspaper The Guardian. Homosexual and ardent proponent of the homosexual agenda. He has been described as Marxist, Trotskyite, Communist, and left-wing extremist.
Background
Jones went to a comprehensive (state-run) school in Stockport, then to Oxford University which now has a system of reserving a percentage of places for such pupils. He joined the UK Labour party, worked as a parliamentary researcher and supported the selection of Jeremy Corbyn as leader.
Erratic Behavior
In June 2016 Jones walked out of a live television interview about the mass killing in the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida in protest at his interviewer's refusal to name the shooting an attack on LGBT people. He insisted it was “ a homophobic hate crime and it has to be called out." When Sky News host Mark Longhurst said Mr. Jones could not suggest the Orlando attack was “worse” than the Bataclan terror attack, Jones became increasingly exasperated, insisting, “This was a deliberate attack on LGBT people.” Finally, saying. “I’ve had enough of this,” he took off his microphone and left the set, admitting he was "upset".[1]
It was later revealed that the terrorist, Omar Mateen, was a homosexual himself, and had long been a familiar client of the club he attacked.
Anti-Establishment credentials
Jones has written a book called ‘The Establishment: And How They Get Away With It’. He frequently castigates politicians for being part of "the self-serving, mutual appreciation society – otherwise known as the British establishment". He was nonplussed when in September 2016 on the Today program, veteran BBC interviewer John Humphrys asked him if he was not himself part of the establishment. Jones denied it. [2]
Attack on Nick Clegg
In December 2017, when it was announced that the former UK deputy Prime minister Nick Clegg has been nominated to a knighthood (an honorary title that confers no stipend or political power), Jones wrote a lengthy and vitriolic diatribe denouncing Clegg, who in his role as an MP and leader of the Coalition government had always bent over backwards to do everything to further the LGBT agenda. Clegg took the lead in introducing same-sex "marriage" in the UK in 2012. Nevertheless Jones did not have one grateful word to say for him but castigated Clegg as an "architect of our crisis-stricken nation." [3]
