Jackdaw - // The thing is that TR is now in danger of becoming a folk hero, righter of wrongs and a political martyr. I am astonished at the amount of support he has engendered. //
'Tommy Robinson' is a very shrewd individual.
He has created and developed this 'man of the people' persona which chimes with a number of disaffected people who are frightened of what they see as a 'Muslim takeover', and are prey to a right-wing media that plays those fears like a violin.
He will be a 'folk hero' to a small minority who really believe in the 'Muslim takeover', and he makes a lot of noise, utterly disproportionate to his actual relevance to society as a whole.
Fortunately, the people who think he is a 'hero' will never be in a position to do anything to further is nasty xenophobic nonsense.

scooping - // I think it rather heartening, that even a racist thug like him should have the benefit of due process. Thought that was what this democracy supposedly believed in. //
People like 'Tommy Robinson' love to play the victim, but they are equally delighted to accept the British system that they despise the rest of the time, when it admits its failures.
If only he could ever be so honest.

Talbot - // Tommy Robinson is not a xenophobes... You are just spouting ill informed nonsense, andy //
'Tommy Robinson' and his irksome persona is one thing it is quite hard NOT to be informed about, his nonsense is everywhere, because that is how he makes money, by exposure of his idiocy.
You are of course entitled to dismiss what I say as being 'nonsense', but 'ill-informed'? Chance would be a fine thing!!
