If he wasn't a massive hypocrite and a coward who only wants your donations to line his own pockets then more people might listen. As it is he's just a dog whistler and he knows who he's playing up to, but cha ching, the donations keep rolling in - I mean someone has to pay for his 5 star holidays and luxury accommodations.

He is certainly not perfect but watch his interviews and see if it changes your mind? He is one of a few who speak up for the white population in the UK

This is mostly for the Brits on here but lesser nations can join in too.

We have had a rather stormy couple of months here in Thailand but this question is about what is happening at home.

What does the average Brit here think of Tommy Robinson?There doesn't seem to be any middle ground with him.You either love him or hate him.

I'm writing this because on 1stJune he organised a massive peaceful protest in London which was a huge success without any trouble at all but the MSM either refused to acknowledge it or reported it as right wing football supporters.

I like the guy.Yes he is rough round the edges but was first in the firing line with the grooming gang scandal when all others turned a blind eye.

Oh,Tommy Tommy.

Tommy Tommy Tommy Robinson.

"lesser nations".  Come on mate, That's a rather derogatory comment to make, especially when Britain aint the empire it used to be anymore. These days Britain is classed as a lesser nation depending on where people are from. So please none of that pommy superiority complex.

A guy who you could argue has been very clever in milking a racist wave of hate in the UK......

 

Made a fortune as a mouthpiece for anti-Muslims.......never worked a day in his life.

He speaks for fellow right-wing, fruit loop nut jobs and he will soon end up back in prison where he belongs. He has a list of convictions as long as your arm already. An irrelevance in political terms, even Farage detests him.

Just a working class lad that wants his country back.

 

Yeah, sure. He lives the good life financed by his supporters. What a bunch of dimwits to support this individual. Tommy leans back & has a good laugh.

While I dont agree with everything he says he does speak a lot more sense than the so called government we have in the UK. I has tried calling our the grooming gangs a subject that the government ignores. On that basis alone he cant be all bad.

Not sure where to post these, but they may be useful because YouTube is shadow-banning a lot of TR content.

 

Everyone has the right to form their own opinions on anything.  All I would suggest is to challenge the information fed to you, and it's sources, before making opinions about *anyone* the establishment clearly hates.

 

I thought TR was a thug, for many years.  When I did my own research - avoiding main stream media and 'opinion' articles in lefty mouthpiece newspapers - I quickly realised I needed to form a new opinion for myself.

Just a violent ultra right-wing, highly convicted felon. "Wants his country back" means nothing.

A few highlights.

 

"Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon (born Stephen Christopher Yaxley, 27 November 1982), better known as Tommy Robinson, is a British anti-Islam campaigner, convicted criminal, and one of the UK’s most prominent far-right activists. He was a political advisor to former UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Gerard Batten.

 

Robinson has been active in far-right politics for many years. He was a member of the British National Party (BNP), a neo-fascist and white nationalist political party, from 2004 to 2005. For a short time in 2012, he was joint vice-chairman of the far-right British Freedom Party (BFP). He co-founded the far-right English Defence League (EDL) in 2009 and led it until 8 October 2013. In 2015, he became involved with the development of Pegida UK, a now-defunct British chapter of the German far-right Pegida. From 2017 to 2018, he wrote and appeared in videos on the Canadian far-right website Rebel News.

 

Robinson has been convicted for multiple crimes involving violence, stalking, financial and immigration fraud, drug possession, public order offences, and contempt of court. He has served at least four separate prison terms: for assault in 2005, for using false travel documents to enter the United States in 2012, for mortgage fraud in 2014, and 13 months in 2018 for contempt of court after publishing a Facebook Live video of defendants entering a law court (contravening a court order that disallows reporting on such trials while proceedings are ongoing). In August 2018, due to procedural errors, he was released on bail pending a new hearing. In July 2019, he was again found guilty of contempt of court at the retrial and was committed at the Old Bailey to nine months in prison․ Before his sentencing, he appeared on the American far-right website InfoWars to appeal for political asylum in the U.S. He was released from prison on 13 September 2019 after nine weeks.

 

In July 2021, Robinson was found to have libelled a 15-year-old refugee at a school in Huddersfield and was ordered to pay £100,000 plus legal costs, although he had filed for bankruptcy in March 2021. In October 2021, he was made subject to a five-year stalking order for harassing journalist Lizzie Dearden and her partner.

 

"....but lost his job when he was convicted of assaulting an off-duty police officer in a drunken argument. He served a 12-month prison sentence."

 

"Robinson has appeared masked at protests. Although Robinson repeatedly insisted from the early days of the organisation that the EDL was "against the rise of radical Islam" and that its members "aren't against Islam", its rank and file were noted for including football hooligans and members who described themselves as anti-Muslim."

 

"Robinson was convicted in 2011 of using "threatening, abusive or insulting behaviour" during a fight between supporters of Luton Town and Newport County in Luton the previous year. Robinson reportedly led the group of Luton fans, and played an integral part in starting a 100-man brawl, during which he chanted "EDL till I die". He was sentenced to a 12-month community rehabilitation order with 150 hours' unpaid work and a three-year ban from attending football matches."

 

"On 29 September 2011, Robinson was convicted of common assault after headbutting a fellow EDL member at a rally in Blackburn in April that year.[1][18] He was sentenced to 12 weeks' imprisonment, suspended for 12 months."

If you'd bothered  to read the whole thread you'll see that I've stated a number of thoughts on this matter. 

 

As for Wiki Warrior, as much as I like the name I don't think one Wikipedia article posted by me in 15 years on this board qualifies me as such. 

 

If you really want to be taken seriously you should engage in debate not ad-hominem attacks.

A real stand up guy in many eyes

 

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/tommy-robinson-arrest-protest-police-court-b2635853.html

 

 

At one point he was spending about £100,000 on gambling in casinos and online, wasting money on “drink, alcohol, partying” while receiving thousands of pounds in donations from supporters, he told the Royal Courts of Justice in London. In 2020, he received about £1,000 a month from supporters but that at times that figure was between £3,000 and £4,000, he said.
