West Brom . It was only a small section of Luton, other Luton fans have joined Football Lads & Lasses Against Fascism

Not sure. I have seen bits written on the Luton game by Robinson/yaxley or whatever his name is.

maybe they'd slay each other and then there'd be none.

A nowadays excuse
Tommy singing for his supper in a new online interview. Features full-throated fascist rhetoric getting floated for the first time. ‘Islam is a cancer, I am the cure’. Presented in angry context, but presumably designed to be tested out of context, & sounds like a deliberate attempt to create a meme-worthy slogan. US alt-right influence? It's certainly part-aimed at US sponsors & clicks, with a US interviewer* acting as a translator. Income stream plus possible escape route when he’s made his dough?
His contrasting treatment in Hull & London is interesting. In HMP Hull, he’s treated like a fictional mafiosi - room in the hospital wing, his own gym, recreation time spent socialising with screws not inmates. Then he’s ghosted south & put it into what sounds like a nightmarish block - genuinely hard conditions, harder than many could cope with. Wondering what prompted the change - simply procedural, or a power play flex from state elements? Deal gone sour? Or is the whole thing over-exaggerated fiction for clicks? Who knows.
He's exhibiting real self-entitlement. Makes a living as a provocateur, but demands special protection in jail. Trades in generalisations, & expects particularised treatment. Sounds narcissistic, bordering on messianic when he tears up talking of the revolution his murder could provoke. Considered or cracking up? Either way, it’s racking up big numbers & presumably earning money while he keeps out of trouble with a retrial pending.
*correction - interviewer is Canadian, not US, but point stands about translation orientation towards North American audience.

How did you find it? I mean, I don't suppose your computer came with a bookmark? At some point you must have used a search engine.
