Andrew Neil entirely demolished Owen Jones on This Week last night.
Owen Jones had become confused over whether assets worth £1 million were the same as income worth £1 million.
Having made the point Andrew Neil could have restrained himself, but the prey-instinct was too strong and he lunged forward again and again.
Owen Jones is a difficult commentator to categorise. He has done a lot of valuable work in analysing and defending a section of society that cannot defend itself. However he continually interprets his work through the prism of ideology, which tends to undermine his arguments (instead of letting the facts speak for themselves).
