Current Affairs Tommy Robinson Bailed

[jaycee]

I agree - if you dismiss him as a bellend, or as racist, you tend to miss the bit about how much money he makes out of it all.

I know he makes a hell of a lot,same as Jayda rakes a fair few quid in,but the problem is hes getting himself and his "views" pushed as legitimate,mainstream views and thats what makes a difference,as I said theres a lot of disillusioned,angry people who are getting fed crap about where there problems actually lie

Indeed, and of course we should all look at who is doling that crap out for people to eat.

He is a total knob but we must be vigilant:

1) Guardian report on his MO (well worth a read)

I linked that in the Far Right thread, Dan. If you get a chance read at least some of the comments underneath the tweet. I think it was @Number_25 who said we're in a culture war, that comment thread confirms it...a lot of people, from both sides, want this war:

interesting comments below this tweet...state of the nation stuff:

I don't think "the left" (whatever that means) wants this war, but we must fight it or risk the utterly horrific consequences of defeat.

May this powerful image be a helpful reminder for any wannabe fascist that aims to bring back the horrors of the early 19th century.

I disagree the Left don't want this cultural war. They live from it just as much as the Right, as the online media world proves.

I agree there are still some dangerous ideologies out there, and plenty of horrible nasty even evil comments online. In my 'quest' to better understand all possible viewpoints, I hit a brickwall with white supremacism: a brutally-inhuman community, with comments from some akin to supporting similar acts to what's going on in that picture. I haven't attempted to understand that community since.

But, and it's an important but for now, thankfully this community nowadays is relatively harmless in terms of the real damage its doing. While there's a debate about if a Trump presidency is enabling this lot to potentially become more dangerous, I still prefer to look at who are the real victims (i.e. people getting killed) currently in the world today, and who are the perps.

The most obvious & numerous victims today are the countless thousands of innocent Arabs who die via Western/Israeli/Saudi campaigns (including the West's inability to make peace with Russia's engagement with Assad), which then by domino-effect cause radicalisation and hundreds more innocent deaths via terror attacks in the West.

Second to that are gun deaths in the US, and knife deaths in London, of which some major factors are so politically-sensitive they are barely spoken about openly (other than from the Tommy Robinsons of this world...and that's not ideal).

The online dramas of Left/Right factions pale in comparison (even if taking into account lone deranged attacks like which murdered Jo Cox) to the numerous deaths happening daily from things we could take much better control of, if only we talked honestly about them more...for not talking about these things is what's enabling extremism...eventually.

Jesus mate, that's a bit much. Reckon we can make the point without having to see photos of dead blokes strung up.

Anything to hi light child abuse, is fine by me, I’m a big follower of the child protection awareness on Facebook, probably a 75% to 25% ratio Muslim men being the higher % Love seeing whoever gets stung regardless of race/religion/colour.. Side note this group catch at least one a day, and there are plenty of these groups. Shocking our young ones have so many predatory paedophiles that police can’t handle the amount

He did nothing to combat child abuse, in fact quite the converse. He risked a trial and a potentially a further associated trial failing, due to him breaking the law relating to press restrictions. He wilfully did this knowing he was doing so, as he already had a suspended sentence for risking another trial collapsing by doing the same thing. His actions were therefore purely selfish, he didn’t give a monkey’s about the victims associated with that trial, all he was interested in was furthering his own grubby anti Islam agenda and self publicity.

The nasty little scrote has never uncovered a paedophile, he’s filmed blokes who’d been arrested, charged and were in the courthouse facing justice. Justice he jeopardised.

You should probably read the piece I posted earlier in the thread about the ethnicity of U.K. paedophiles btw.

Thanks. It's depressing - all this Far Right, EDL etc stuff.. And then there's the likes of Bannon running around creating havoc - unhealthy and unnecessary. I don't know what his types (money/extremism) are planning but it really doesn't feel beneficial to a consensus society. It's quite depressing to think that those who already control so much (and have so much personal comfort from their riches) feel compelled to control from without (or, for the likes of Banks, Murdoch etc) a lot closer to the inner circles of (what we call) power. And we haven't even addressed the motives of the large minority of the disenfranchised - are we looking at some future "Arab Spring" in Western Democracy where the forces of "good(ish)" are pitted against the Far Right (and/or Youth/Radical Left)? The more society crumbles and the cost of maintaining Law and Order escalates (in the face of reduced Revenues for Government to cope with this and Welfare) the nearer the nightmare becomes a reality.

(sorry, I haven't thought this out much.. just a few thoughts together).

Don't hold your breath. Their ethnicity will only ever matter to them when they're Muslim. And even then, they're from Muslimland, a single country where all the Muslims come from to take your jobs and hear the lamentations of your women.

If only we'd known that they've been disguising themselves as postboxes this whole time we could have stopped the invasion. Why was someone not producing instructional (if wobbly) videos where this vital information was screamed at us in poorly constructed English?

A debate on whether to stay the ban on former extremist party members joining UKIP for Robinson , aren’t UKIP meant to be a law and order party ?
