Tommy Robinson is a horrible man

[Lotte]

I'm genuinely sad that Sammy Woodhouse has fallen for the TR grift, because she did a load of good work raising awareness of the abuse she went through, and she's had loads of abuse off TR's supporters for not being nice enough about him. Louise Distras is hilarious. Whining about being ~cancelled~ when barely anyone knew who she was to begin with, and now she's playing at far right rallies where people think she's shit and only put up with her because they agree with her views.

What was he even demonstrating about?

And of course they have some weirdo fringe church there as well.

It would appear to be his intention to go to jail.

He'd love it, and it would give his supporters an even greater sense of grievance.

They'd consider him a martyr.

Well, exactly.

The legal firm I used to work for represented him and he had like 10 case files with us that were a result of bail breaches. He kept going on demos despite being told not to. I feel sorry for the poor bastard who had to represent him.

I suspect that a halfway decent lawyer would take it as an intellectual challenge, even if they know the defence is useless.

It's a dirty job, but someone's gotta do it.

Earlier on the scrounge, then later on the fence.

Wrong thread, philosophical?

I'm willing to put up with them feeling further aggrieved

Maybe the cat is named Tommy Robinson...

(I suspect this is unlikely and that the photos were indeed posted on the wrong thread)

 

[Silas Loom]

He’s fairly regularly on the scrounge, and I wouldn’t put receiving stolen goods past him, even if he isn’t an equivocator.

Are you still talking about philosophical's cat?

I thought we’d agreed that the cat was being used to demonstrate Robinson’s character flaws?

Not at all.

Yes. I am pretty stupid.

 

[BristolEcho]

I think it worked to be honest.

 

[andysays]

Yes. I am pretty stupid.

It's an easy mistake to make, so don't worry about it.

TBH its one of the more reassuring posts on the thread. Cat life continues even though Twatty Wobinson is making his usual me me me noise

 

[pbsmooth]

They do seem to have made a good job of making it look like a festival for Middle England flag-shaggers rather than an extremist thing, which is worrying. I wonder how many people there didn’t realise the full extent of the divisive racist stuff they were about to hear. Like a few Facebook posts and you see that sort of shite fairly easy I fear.

 

[Chilli.s]

sadly normalising racism

 

[Lotte]

Yeah, they had a few tokens but let's not kid ourselves here. Depressing how many women were there as well, given Tommy's record with women. I guess they assume he's safe because he's white and Christian.

Tommy’s location on what3words.

One of the marchers seems a bit confused as to what they are.

Estimates of 10-20k from various antifascist sources for the TR march which is larger than the last one.

School summer hols would’ve driven up the numbers too I’d wager.

Is it?

Bollocks, it was sent to me as being from yesterday, words will be had.

 

[klang]

don't worry, things haven't really moved on.
