1./ Is Owen Jones lying about monkeypox? 7 weeks ago he laughed as @ALLIANCELGB had a post taken down warning monkeypox affected gay men disproportionately. Today, he complains monkeypox advice doesn't emphasise the threat to gay men enough. Are Owen's little pants on fire?

2./ Maybe health experts were reluctant to emphasise the link between gay men and monkeypox because Owen and his buddies denounced anyone like LGB Alliance who made the link? @benjamincohen said it was a vile trope. A certain Owen Jones called it medical disinformation.👇

3./ Owen now tries to blame government homophobia for the spread. Really? Did the organisers of Pride follow @UKHSA govt advice and warn no one should attend if they had monkeypox symptoms? No. In fact they didn't once mention the virus. Neither did @SadiqKhan at the time.

4./ @PeterTatchell claimed sex venues shouldn't be closed because they could distribute information. This may surprise the biggest gay sauna in London which still hasn't a single reference to the virus on its website. "Come inside" it says. I'd rather not.

5./ Monkeypox embodies the problem with our self-appointed gay spokesmen. Everything is always the fault of non-existent homophobia and no lie is too barefaced for them to tell. I sometimes wonder how they got used to telling so many totally ridiculous lies.🤔
