He's a Father and Husband, I believe his wife separated from him following awful threats to their children...so for their safety they seperated....If the state can arrest him, they can arrest any of us...Having watched the film about the so called waterboarding incident in a school, of a Syrian refugee child...it seems there is a massive cover up going on....the council allegedly paid 250K hush money to force teachers to sign NDAs.....on the back of the Rotherham grooming scandal this is very strange....anyone else think is state over reach and a massive cover up ?

eh?

You are not making any sense - like if I say 'these apples are rotten' - your reply ' I once sat on a very uncomfy sofa in Rhyl'

We aren't talking about your imagined mythical 'oh please sir I am brown please let me off' person - the question was about your hero - a woman abusing, police assaulting thug - so you think he's an okay human - just say that - the straw man 'but what about the person who said I don't understand and got off' is just that!

Made plenty of sense you asked me a question that if someone serves a short sentence etc. I answered. In short a small sentence is better than no sentence on the basis of race.

Lots of people in prison are fathers and husbands. People are arrested if there is evidence they commited a crime. If that evidence is weak they aren't convicted, and get released.

Mr Yaxley-Lennon appears to be almost certainly guilty of contempt of court as he broke a court order, and may well also be guilty of incitement to violence. He's definitely a racist and deliberately fans the flames of islamophobia.

It's not the case that "If the state can arrest him, they can arrest any of us" because most of us aren't doing this kind of stuff because we aren't utter bastards.

That’s a crazy response?? If you’re going to call someone a racist you need to have damn good proof!!
do you know that some of his best friends are Muslim + black? do you know his mother was an immigrant? Do you know what he’s fighting for or do you just want to feed in to the media’s narrative? Do you trust everything you read in the papers?

He's not fighting for anything, he's a grifting shyte who monetises hate to fleece the ignorant in order to fund his coke habit and foreign holidays.

Well said. Already on page on fb

Why assume everyone opposing this odious abuser of women is only informed by 'newspapers' (how 2010) - I was raised to stand up against racism and fascism - mainly from my WW2 veteran grandfather who spent his life fighting right wing ideology and standing up for marginalised people - because he had seen, first hand, where othering people and blaming 'immigrants' led

I am well educated and well informed - and not by the press - dress it up anyway you like - old 'Tommy' (not his name) is a small minded asshat, an abuser of women, with no respect for the police - he speaks the simple rhetoric of the right - it's everyone else's fault - it's all the fault of immigrants/Jews/black people - you all clap and thing 'YES that's it if we just sent them all back life would be fabulous' he offers nothing of substance - just sound bites you all salivate over - try a little critical thinking, a little step outside of it and think about the real issues

That's not why they divorced. He put 6 of the 7 houses he owned in her name, along with the tanning salon he ran. With legal costs mounting and a strong likelihood that he would lose the libel case, Lennon set in motion a plan to avoid pay up. On 3rd February 2021, he and his wife divorced. A month later, and just six weeks before the case was due to be held in the High Court, he declared himself bankrupt.

Nutshell. Lengthy criminal record . Multiple names. Multiple passports. Apparently unemployed. Lives in a nice big f*ck off house in Spain 🇪🇸 . But the mugs will continue to fund his lifestyle. Like a pound shop Trump.

For anyone who wants to see the video that OP is talking about- x.com/trobinsonnewera/status/1817184820151070917?s=48

Most on here won’t watch , they believe every thing the BBC and MS media tells them , to be truthful it’s only because they arrested him today that I thought to myself why are they trying so hard for us to stop us watching this documentary so much? So this evening I watched it. If you think Piers Morgan is a twat then watch it for that alone. Tomorrow I am going to watch Tommy Robinson Oxford Union debit.

Can you?
Tell me then, where have the Right Wing terrorist attacks in the UK occurred?
Ironically, regarding non-Islamic attacks on the Mainland, several bombings ascribed to the IRA/INLA, Warrington being a prime example, are thought to have actually been carried out by a Left Wing extremist group on behalf of the Republicans.

The Admiral Duncan bombing springs to mind.

MotherofChaosandDestruction · 28/07/2024 23:23

The police don't want to make a martyr of Tommy bloody Robinson, he already has his knucklehead supporters eating out of his hand believing any old bullshit. He lied about a 15 year old Syrian boy, spreading harmful allegations that led to death threats to a child on no basis whatsoever. He was told explicitly if he aired the film he would be arrested, he did it anyway. I'm pretty sure the police knew if they arrested him it would cause a fuss but they had to do it because he broke the law

Thanks for the advice but I am educated also with veterans in family but not a competition. I do not believe all should be sent back as you claim, I do believe if someone is seeking refuge they should abide by the laws of the country they pick. If they break them laws they should be deported, not put on a list and set free to reoffend. Laws should be applied to all equally not the two tier issue we have now

Getting pedos off the hook?! He is literally out to expose child grooming gangs!! What nonsense are you spouting?

His interventions have resulted in zero paedophiles being convicted and 20 odd paedophiles getting off.

Exposing grooming gangs my arse. All he's done is provided grounds for them to walk away Scott free while rabble rousing and harassing innocent folk.

He is no patriot, he is no friend of British people and he is no help to victims of male violence.🤷‍♀️

ghostyslovesheets · 28/07/2024 23:26

Yet everyone is crying because dear old ‘Tommy’ (not his name) has been arrested for breaking the law! Maybe he’ll be sent back to Spain

Did someone send up the Twat Signal?

Like the bat signal but so less cool and much whiter?

MotherofChaosandDestruction · 28/07/2024 23:33

Oh and HE has assaulted police officers and is actively protesting against them but as soon as brown people have committed the same offence suddenly he cares. Hypocrisy at its finest.

Just for the record I think the blokes involved in that situation need to be locked up, vile. Just the hypocrisy of TR as soon as brown people/Muslims are involved he's suddenly siding with the police. He's a grifter and people are paying to give him a lovely lifestyle in Spain and fund his well known coke addiction.

Fully agree, let's send Tommy back to Ireland/Spain as he's broken the law. If he's in Britain he needs to abide by our laws, he hasn't - let's deport the grifter criminal

NowImNotDoingIt · 28/07/2024 23:37

@Nanalisa60 I watched it. Still not impressed. I have more comments but I'll leave it there.

mansviewpoint · 28/07/2024 23:45

The NDAs are a laughable argument. Not only was it not even at the same time it doesnt include all the teachers at that school. There are many local councils who ask teachers to sign NDAs as part of the school having a bad Ofsted report and the teacher would be asked to sign it when leaving the school and it was within 3 months if the bad ofated report. ASKED is not FORCED. If the teacher kept silent whilst they knew criminal act occurred then they would be arrested.
Talking about arrests, he was arrested when Kent police wanted to search him at the channel tunnel and he refused to allow them to search him, which is against the law. Any irony there?

MrsSkylerWhite · 28/07/2024 23:49

I agree. Let's send him back and, in accordance of British Law, strip him of his British citizenship.

He's a skanky yob leading a skanky mob bent on fucking up life for British citizens. Particularly women and girls.Angry

I was listening to Jordan Peterson podcast recently and he came up next episode. That was a really interesting discussion and I couldn’t stop listening.
I have no idea how true anything he’s saying is but it’s a hell of a story.

If he’s lying he should write movie plots.
If he’s not then it is a crazy coverup story. On par with Rochdale (not for the severity of crime); but the pervasiveness of the coverup.

Either way I do feel for the teen accused. He was a child at the time and that is fact. He shouldn’t have been tried in the global public court like he was.

I did watch the silenced movie after as was so intrigued. It’s a poorly made film. Almost frantic and panicked. Very shady and budget.

I can’t tell you whether it’s true or not. I have no idea. Either way I wouldn’t be surprised if they were trying to jail him. With the rise of reform/ far right threatening both Tory and Labour they probably want him out the picture. And judges do work politically. As we have seen with the FWR insanity.

Deport him to Luton? the place in Spain is not his I believe. His mother was Irish hence passport as is his right

I found it very interesting, I’m not saying Tommy Robinson is a saint probably far for it, but sorry I do believe the children that went to court to testify for him. The MS media only give us half truth and half video evidence, only this week on Tuesday one minute phone video of a police man kicking a man in the head I was appalled, had to wait till Saturday until we saw the whole incident sorry not so appalled now !! And to use the terrorism Act to arrest him is just not sitting wright with me.

The reason both the original cut and the MICE version are banned in the UK is because they repeat Yaxley-Lennon's libellous claims. Those claims have been found to be false and have resulted in racist abuse and the continued spreading of lies against the victim.

It's that simple. There is no conspiracy, no silencing of truth, it's a fabrication.

Just as Yaxley claiming
it’s not me publishing it,” and that, “I do not support the release of the film. […] I have said openly and publicly that I did not want this documentary to be made public, in line with the injunction laid down by the courts. Even if I do not agree with the court order, I do respect the law.”

This is bollocks, as Yaxley was seen begging MICE to screen it.

Will you be buying Yaxley-Lennon's mice NFTs? Because somebody needs to fund his £1.3m villa in Spain & his trips to the Bahamas.

None of this information is from the BBC, MS media, the WEF, the WWE, George Soros or even some loon from YouTube if that'll reassure you.
