Political violence

Sonic67

Like I said before though, if she's being manipulated then she's effectively a 16 year old mentally ill girl being abused. Would you aim vitriol at another 16 year old girl in a position of abuse? Of course you wouldn't. Not if you're a decent human being anyway. You'd at the very least aim it toward those abusing her.

Sadly the likes of Banks and Brewer are not decent in any way, and any anger directed toward them was wholly justified. Their pathetic defence was "Oh but she's being used." Great then that they know that. So what are they doing about it to help?

Not just that.

Five people are flying to the US to then bring the yacht back.

                                                                               

Is she flying back too?

Met police arrest three men over assault on Owen Jones

Daniel Thomas, aka Danny Tommo, Yaxley-Lennon's spokesman and convicted kidnapper, could be looking at porridge again for that tweet posted earlier (since deleted - “For someone that has been attacked he sounds very surprised that something has been found on the CCTV. Owen had a call from the landlord of the pub (me), shocked when he finds out something has been found”) and still quite a few undeleted and potentially defamatory tweets, which could bankrupt him in a libel suit ...

Three men charged. ABH and affray. Due in court 6th November.

So looks like he may not have faked it after all....

Who'd have thought such a thing I wonder....

At least now we'll get the truth as to what occurred.
Was it really 'military precision'?
Was he targeted because of who he is?
Or  just an annoying chap that evening?
Were they members of the far right?

There's proper journalists and there's Owen.

I wonder if it was Owen Jones who edited that tweet, or whoever shared the image of it?

        https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1182337650734313477
I can’t see the request to DM him with information about them in his actual tweet?  As a ‘proper journalist’, I wouldn’t expect someone to doctor an image of a tweet to further their own agenda.



                                                                               

Edit: According to the tweet referenced above, they claim that Jones deleted then rewrote his tweet without the last line, although they don’t have any more actual screenshots of the original tweet, showing the time/date, and refer to having seen other people sharing it too, which isn’t massively conclusive.

Until there is actual evidence of the stupid request for DMs from Jones, I’d reserve judgement on the facts.

The simple question to ask is would Jones really be daft enough to blatantly ask for information and jeopardise his case?

Or might someone who doesn't like him mock that up as a way of trying to do so?

I just did a quick search on Twitter for curiosity, and I can't find a single other copy of that picture apart from the link that Sonic has.

Given much of the vitriol Jones receives, I thought that picture would be all over. Appears not.

Think I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now.
