It’s not an unreasonable assumption though is it? |  |

He can assume what he wants. And as they say “don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story”. | | | |

Well has it been proven that he was actually attacked ? | | | |

Well, let's see. He and his echo chamber believe there was chatter football hoolies were going to "get him". So they hang around until 4am - presumably staying sober in the process of waiting to "get him".
Jones admits not hearing anything that was said but leaps to the conclusion it must be far right;he couldn't possibly be an utter cockwomble and done anything that could have triggered it whatosever. It couldn't possibly be a random attack; no, everyone assaulted after a night out has to be attacked based upon their political leanings.
Jones has gone public with a massive assumption that happens to back his agenda, funnily enough.
All he needed to do was confirm an incident happened, it was being dealt with by police. Instead, runs to social media, appears on TV that it's the far right with zero evidence.
If say Yaxley-Lennon was assaulted in similar circumstances, I doubt many would blame it on the far left? | | | |

That's because at this point in time, all it is is an alleged attack.
An allegation has been made to police. Police investigate, could caution or pass onto CPS to determine if charges to be brought.
Sun's reporting in those terms is perfectly correct. | | | |

As Jeremy and Shami have already decided it was a heinous crime who are we to disagree? |  | | |

If he’s been targeted because he’s a journalist and on account of his political beliefs, then its a bad day for democracy and Jeremy Corbyn’s comment about it being an attack on free speech and our fundamental values is right.
Freedom of speech is sacred. | | | |

That’s true. They go very quiet when someone gets stabbed in London though. | | | |

He's not a journalist.
He's an opinion writer.
Big difference.
Freedom of speech is sacred, sure. I can't quit remember similar comments by Corbyn when Squealer was attacked at a Tory conference a few years ago by far left thugs who thought he was a Tory delegate. | | | |

I suspect many would think Yaxley-Lennon got his comeuppance more than anything tbh.
There's an ongoing police investigation into the alleged assault on Jones. Claiming it to be the work of far right, despite admitting he didn't anyone say anything isn't exactly helpful.
There are many assaults that go on after nights out. I'd suggest the overwhelming majority aren't politically related, so jumping to the conclusion this must be is silly. Jones using the media to give a narrative that may or may not be true doesn't help the investigation. | | | |

And you don’t think that many people aren’t smiling at the thought of Jones getting a tuning and thinking that he’s getting his comeuppance? | |

I couldn't possibly comment on that one. Not that he appeared to have got a tuning, certainly no medical treatment was needed.
Just a few things seem a bit off about it to me that don't match his tweets. Still, police will investigate. | | | |

Given the sclerotic, wildly sectarian nature of the left it’s just as likely he’s raised the ire of any number of them. Who knows? Who cares?
Then again given it was chucking out time at an Islington gay bar perhaps his outfit clashed with somebody on the other table? |  |
