common knowledge that his real name tbh.
|
|
By:
Changed his name when he started to get death threats.
Real name made known years ago. Puts himself in too many dangerous situations to be a fraud. |
|
By:
yes i know .. but seems many may be taken in on here .. he seems to have some kind of 'Agenda'
real hooligans take no prisoners .. Tommy seems to just cause trouble & get punched a lot .. then gets a lot of air time for his troubles ![]() |
|
By:
Gets a lot of grief from the police as well.
This is a clip of him and his mates along with their kids getting thrown out not only a pub but the town centre. Reason given, they may cause trouble. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVOGpdAz7Lk |

By:
Tommy was born into a family of irish republican immigrants.
Albeit he was born in Luton I always found it strange he joined the EDL. His mother remarried when he was quite young so maybe his background up til then was irrelevant. |
|
By:
have you noticed that the very few who do not follow the agenda and speak out, are vilified by the authorities, politicians, tv news media etc etc and howled down on public programmes
I wonder why. Especially when they have been proven to speak the truth. Look at how corbyn was treated for starters. Then anyone who mentions immigration. Anyone who questions Islam. Look at the bias in favour of the eu and how brexiteers were attacked and so on!!! Basically they want to keep the ship level and afloat. Unfortunately there is one group that is hell bent on changing all that. |

By:
5,000 football fellas (I've heard as many as ten thousand) had a peaceful march through London Saturday with no trouble what so ever. A large group saying enough is enough, a mention on the main stream news.........not a word

By:
changed his name to sound more quintessentially English working class
what's his job btw? |
|
By:
He gets paid by some right wing US or Canadian broadcaster to turn up and call the end of civilisation whenever a muzzie farts.
Oh, and he has his book to sell of course. Got to monetise his followers and get them to buy his book. |
|
By:
actually don't think he's even changed his name just likes to call himself "Tommy Robinson" - in the same way the actor off Rainbow called himself "Bungle"
|

By:
Oh, and he has his book to sell of course. Got to monetise his followers and get them to buy his book.
Yeah what a cretin. Imagine becoming an author then having the audacity to actually sell your books for money. |
|
By:
just like the gambler said, read it and weep.
|
|
By:
Tommy Robinsons life is the book, and the novel he is writing is always the same one.
|
|
By:
that makes him the opposite of a fraud, in my book.
|
|
By:
disagree with robinson, but this video is worth a watch
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtEzCrXbaX0 horrible how the police state has treated him, and many other activists across the board like him. his experience raises serious questions about the state. |
|
By:
yeah break the law and you end up in prison. how unfair is that?
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
As was pointed out by Douglas Murray Tommy Robinson's conviction for mortgage fraud was bought up after the Old Bill went through his life with a fine tooth comb to find something, funny how some of the extremist preachers don't seem to receive the same scrutiny from the state
![]() |
|
By:
and there was me thinking he broke the law
|
|
By:
No one is saying he hasn't but I'm sure there are many out there that preach hate towards this country who probably have a few dodgy dealings in there past. It's about fairness
|
|
By:
Who would you prefer to be hassled by the establishment Tommy Robinson or someone glorifying the magnificent sight of those planes flying into the towers ?
|
|
By:
He admitted his guilt and there were about 6 others ivolved in the large scale fraud so doubt the comb needed to that 'fine toothed' as it was hardly some trumped up charge tbf.
|
|
By:
Put in solitary for months on end for abs no reason...and the police have been been a disgrace towards him!
oh and yes the media ignoring the 10,000 peaceful march was disgusting! |
|
By:
A_T
yeah break the law and you end up in prison. how unfair is that? Yet those of the religion of peace avoid prosecution despite breaking the law under the nose of the police. |

By:
Tommy Johnson (Danny Dyer ) football Factory
This is where he got the name He was a Casual/Hooligan so adopted the name easy |
|
By:
I'm sure I've just seen him sat outside a beer store in Amersham having a drink.

Nelson Mandela wrote a book called 'Long walk to freedom'. Do reckon the only reason he spoke out against against white rule was to make money? |
|
By:
Oh my god, you went there. You compared Robinson to Mandela.
Betfair - you can wrap it up now lads. The chit chat forum just ate itself. |
|
By:
PP,
You claimed he was only does what he does for the money. I pointed out he is not the first person who has been put in solitary for opposing the state who wrote a book to expose the truth. You threw your toys out of your pram. I bet you have have not even read his book. What exactly is it you dislike? |
|
By:
Nothing, I love the violent thug. Lovely guy.
I hope my kids grow up to be just like him. Well him or Mandela. Easy to get them mixed up to be honest. |
|
By:
Mandela was no Christ nor even Gandhi nor Martin Luther King. He was for decades a man of violence. In 1961, he broke with African National Congress colleagues who preached non-violence, creating a terrorist wing.
He later pleaded guilty in court to acts of public violence, and behind bars sanctioned more, including the 1983 Church St car bomb that killed 19 people. Mandela even suggested cutting off the noses of blacks deemed collaborators. His then wife Winnie advocated "necklacing" instead - a burning tyre around the neck. Mandela argued the apartheid regime left him no option but to fight violence with violence, but it is too easy to claim events proved him right. His legacy is not yet played out. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/opinion/the-dark-side-of-nelson-mandela/news-story/68f4acdbf2b0b4e6c799e458a55e6cb2 And Tommy Robinson? What he do? Defended himself. What exactly is it you disagree with him on? |
|
By:
oh
my word |
|
By:
No argument so you don't bother to engage in debate.
That is the problem with people in complete denial. What has TR said in anything he has written or any unedited video that you disagree with? |
|
By:
It's saturday night, if you think listening to you repeat (and I do mean repeat) how much Robinson means to you is the best I can do then you're mistaken. Been there, done that thanks. I might be taking some bedding to the launderette on monday so I might let you bore on a bit then but no ta.
Just popped in to laugh heartily at you using Mandela as a reference. Got it down to a smirk now though. |
|
By:
Mandela was a violent thug who transformed himself albeit it took a lengthy prison sentence.
|
|
By:
PP you aint letting the left down with your replies here.
Always the same. Have no argument so resort to attacking the OP. |
|
By:
pp,
You sound like you use CNN, BBC and Corbyn to get your views on the world. Do your own research. Think about things for yourself. If you disagree that is healthy. But to have to just smirk at people who have different views without bothering to back yourself up with an argument is pathetic. |
|
By:
Mandela's is an acceptable reference. Tommy Robinson is an activist who wrote and released a book and sold it for money. Bizarre that you would take umbrage at anyone writing a book and selling it to people who follow them which in your initial post you did. Why is Robinson any different from any other activist who wrote a book and sold it for money?
