I have to admit I'm not Owen Jones' biggest fan. He is articulate and passionate, but he is very left wing and, sometimes, a little extreme.
But, I guess I'm being very unfair. His passion for his beliefs are no different to my own, it's just the beliefs are a little different.
One thing is for sure, there is absolutely no excuse for the abuse he has endured and the attack he suffered was utterly indefensible.
Whether the attack was because of his political views or his homosexuality, the men who attacked him are guilty of a hate crime and deserve significant punishment. It is time the ignorance that is spreading throughout the country, based upon race, ethnicity, sex, gender, sexual orientation, religion or anything else, is brought to an end.
No-one should have to fear an attack just because of who they are.
No-one should have to fear an attack at all.
