Tommy Robinson is a horrible man

[brogdale]

Robinson will do thanks. It just sounds like you're repeating a shit dad joke every time you call him SYL

It's his fucking name.

He wants to be called Robinson, I don't see why he shouldn't be called his given name

tbh you're the one coming across as the twat.

because the 'joke' is tired and worn out. we know who he is.

Yet you say we should use his nom de guerre

fine. things that annoy us often turn us into twats when we say so

Good. So you can call him by his legal name, then, not the name he gave himself in order to hide his past and make himself sound more relatable?

 

[Orang Utan]

sure. it's how everyone but people on here call him though

 

[littlebabyjesus]

I would wager that a lot of people in Britain won't have any idea who he is. My parents won't know, for example. For such people, we should be sure to introduce him with his real name.

That's utterly irrelevant

 

[brogdale]

fucksache Orang Utan , this is what the trolls are for

 

[Yossarian]

I think we owe Yaxley-Lennon the common discourtesy of not calling him by the name he prefers to use

 

[Orang Utan]

it's all a bit childish, but never mind

You didn't know why he'd changed his name, did you? At least be honest about that.

I don't know for sure, but I can hazard a guess.

If you prefer to use his assumed name that's chanted by the fash, that's your call...

 

[cupid_stunt]

I've always called him TR, but I am now convinced henceforth I should call him SYL.

Thanks for for raising this important issue, OU.

Yeats wrote marching songs for the blueshirts then changed them so they couldn't be used for that. The six syllables of Steven yaxley-lennon similarly do not lend themselves to chanting

Excellent. See, OU. We'll have half the country before you know it.

i'd prefer we'd stick to the one name. SYL just makes you sound like you think you're making a clever joke. which is ok once. but not every fucking time. it's the same as those who think they're clever calling Boris Johnson by his full name. The joke does not need making ever again. WE KNOW. Don't be boring. think of summat else.

Don't give a shit what you'd prefer tbh. You've not listened to a word anyone has said in the last two pages.

I've read every word though. Dunno why you're getting so handbags about it. I find it annoying. You find it even more annoying that I find it annoying. good.

I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. In that case, you're acting like a right cunt.

for saying I find people using a name as a joke all of the time annoying? ok. low bar. must be stressful.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

I thought he had other names too - folk call him Tommy ten names. Strange thing for anyone to get upset about.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

I like to call him Stephen Waxy Lemons.

It's not a joke though. When I've had kids in class asking me about him, insisting on using his given name makes them realise they don't know everything about him (invariably they only know him from YouTube and TikTok) and I might have a clue what I'm talking about.

 

[MrsArcanum]

I like to call him Stephen Waxy Lemons.

Me too, though I don't bother with his first name, Waxy-Lemon is enough.

That "WE"; always the give away.
get to fuck yer controlling twat; I'll call the cunt what I like
