are you suggesting he is a liar?

I daredn't make such a suggestion on here.

he said he knew reporting restrictions would not be lifted for another 6 months or so Then I apologise . I was unaware that he said that and didn't see it in the transcript ![]() |

sorry, mm, question was to teynard who seems to be making the suggestion

So it seems only TR named the defendants and the BBC, Sky etc did not?
Maybe some on here need to do some research. Everything he reported was already in the public domain. |
|
By:
^^^^^^ Which is basically the essence of my 9.24 post .
|
|
By:
these polish blokes that were sentenced today had had reporting restrictions too, because
of a previous trial. and like the rape gangs there will still be a load of victims yet to come forward. |
|
By:
|
|
By:
All the defendants had already been named by the BBC etc.
At the last hearing, Tommy's lawyers listed over 300 journalists who had reported on the case including names of the accused and the charges against them. |
|
By:
One of the charges he's been found guilty of is "Causing the defendants (in this case 29 child rapists) anxiety and distress" . Reporting restrictions or not , surely the mainstream media's representatives were commintting the same crime when accosting him en route to the Old Bailey yesterday . Like I said , all are equal before the law !
|
|
By:
no, the jury had not given a verdict.
|
|
By:
Injera - In fairness the other 300 journalists are not considered to be 'Enemies of the State' and therefore there is absolutely no political will to have them prosecuted

What a fckin shambles.
|
|
By:
.............. and there we have it . A total and absolute shambles which , if it was occurring in any other sovereign state on the planet would be deemed headline news by the BBC , ITV , Ch4 etc !
|
|
By:
I thought when TR filmed they had been found guilty and were being given their sentence ?
|
|
By:
They had , Ibrahima , but let's not allow facts to get in the way of a good assassination , eh ?

the jury had not delivered a verdict.
|
|
By:
yaxley lennon stated that he stated on his video that they were innocent
until proven guilty and said he made that clear in his video. |
|
By:
I think , and I may be wrong , the jury had returned their verdict but it hadn't been 'delivered' .
|
|
By:
you are wrong
|
|
By:
Why would the verdict then be changed iyo.

you are wrong And clearly you are never wrong ![]() |

By:
I think he's one of them, Reyno.
|
|
By:
i can be wrong too
the case is well reported, and some facts are clear.. |
|
By:
I'm glad to hear that . I'd hate to think I'm debating a topic with people less open-minded than myself lol
|
|
By:
TR filmed when they were going in for the verdict, still dont understand how a live video could had affected the outcome that was in place.
|
|
By:
which case was it that he filmed on ? The reports don't make that clear
|
|
By:
However , I understand that reporting restrictions only apply to information that is not already in the public domain eg. BBC website .
Ibrahima - that's what I was led to believe . The jury had returned their verdict but the judge hadn't delivered it . you--have--to--laugh seems to know different ![]() |
|
By:
That's even without the 300+ journalists and the broadcasters who'd already reported on it before TR,still no explanation as to why the others aren't in bother.
|
|
By:
Denzil - as I posted earlie , there is no political will to prosecute them . Therefore one can only conclude that this case is politically motivated !
|
|
By:
It's not the case that reporting restrictions cannot apply once names are made public. The restrictions can be put in place after that.
|
|
By:
Thanks for enlightening me on that fact , tobermory

|
By:
reporting restrictions were in place because some of the accused
were on trial in a future case alongside some other defendants. thats why he wasnt allowed to video them and broadcast the video. the jury were still deliberating whilst he was filming, so yeah, they could not see the video live. |
|
By:
|
|
By:
So Tommy Robinson is the only person to have reported on this case AFTER restrictions came in or not?
|
|
By:
That is irrelevent , If the state wanna go after someone for political reasons , they will get 'em regardless of facts or evidence . Today's verdict has proven that .
|
|
By:
I'm only amazed that the Attourney General ruled in his favour last July . Still can't work that one out tbh
