Owen Jones, journalist, author of Chavs and The Establishment, or "that left-wing idiot off the telly", is fed up with the establishment media. After all, it punches down, not up, blames minorities for all the problems in society, and, let's face it, often just parrots the government line. So this podcast is offering something different: speaking truth to power, giving the marginalised a voice, of... more

  • Gorton + Denton observation

    I notice how although the reform candidate MG ‘speaks’ the language of the things that matter to people yet Nigel and the wider gang of expat landlords who jet in/land in Gorton + Denton from UAE/Saudi millionaire space have no intention of observing the reality of precarious homes/work on the quality of life/infrastructural/service investment needed: witness them having a secretive ‘rally’ with supporters on an industrial estate where they can’t be held to democratic account. The people who cau... more

  • Narrow Minded “Journalist”

    I listened to the podcast “Gaza Hunger Strike; Buried by the Media” with an open mind, as I wanted hear things from the other side. I found the reporting to be deeply one-sided.

    My main concern is the lack of balance; Owen consistently ignores the 'other side' of the story, choosing only the facts that support a specific viewpoint. Most troubling, however, is the omissi... more

Q: Can you just tell me a bit about yourself first?

US Ground Invasion Of Iran LOOMS - w/. Sina Toossi
