    This is a straightforward lie from Andrew Neil. Have I robustly criticised him? Yes: for hiring the Holocaust denier David Irving, and for chairing a magazine which publishes racism and praises Nazis. I have never, ever called for him to be sacked. https://twitter.com/afneil/status/1281572584933535745 …pic.twitter.com/7n7CYaNxJ2

        I'm sure @afneil didn't like being criticised for hiring a Holocaust denier, or for chairing a magazine which churns out racism and apologia for Nazis. But in a democratic society, I have a right to challenge him on that. Yet he defends himself by hiding behind "cancel culture".

        This all kicked off after I wrote a column about Andrew Neil in 2018, the point of which was not to "cancel" him, but rather to underline the point that the claim the BBC has a left wing bias is ludicrous. (Which remains the case today).https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/apr/11/bbc-andrew-neil-media-politics …

        The false claim by @afneil, which led to a deluge of abuse including fantasies of violence, still hasn't been withdrawn. I've never called for him to be sacked, as I said at the time: https://twitter.com/OwenJones84/status/984152297625341957 … Lies like this have dangerous consequences and he needs to retract.pic.twitter.com/9WlmcvbM5T

        He should never have been employed in the first place. It's completely fecked up that a publically funded service should have a far-right, freemarket idealogue like Neil doing anything, yet alone hosting their flagship political programs.

        I remember you exposed his far right connections and he still hasn't calmed down from the embarrassment.https://www.thecanary.co/trending/2018/08/07/owen-jones-has-savaged-the-bbcs-andrew-neil-laying-bare-his-far-right-associations/ …

        As a Greek myself I can't stress enough how abhorrent the golden dawn are, not least that they began as and still are an overtly neo nazi party (in a country that lost 10-15% of the population in wwii). There is no defence possible of golden dawn.
