Ex-EDL leader Tommy Robinson is freed on bail
« on: August 01, 2018, 11:24:25 am »
Tommy Robinson was freed on bail today after judges ruled it was 'unfair' the former EDL leader was given 13 months in prison during a 'muddled' court case rushed through just five hours after his arrest.
The far right activist, 35, has been in prison for two months after filming defendants involved in a criminal trial at Leeds Crown Court in May and broadcasting the footage to 250,000 people using Facebook Live.
The far-right activist appealed against his 13-month jail term for contempt of court claiming the punishment was 'excessive' and the hearing was 'rushed'. 
Today the Court of Appeal quashed his conviction saying the decision to jail him within five hours of his arrest 'gave rise to unfairness'.
A panel of three senior judges also criticised Mr Justice Marson, the judge who sent him to prison, saying he gave 'no clarity' about what parts Facebook Live video were problematic and ignored that it was deleted shortly after his arrest.

He's a marked man...the Muzzies will be all hands on deck, trying to kill him.

Good. That said, apparently there are "conditions of parole" where he was not suppose to be reporting. That said, I think he took a hero's role in filming outside that courtroom from what I understand. Nobody was suppose to be filming outside there, that includes the BBC and Daily Mail and so on.  The law may be bad but that was what he was in violation of.

I can't believe it took this long for him to be released.    They effed him like a tied up goat.

 I think it was said that no one could report during the trial. the trial was over this was sentencing . And he was not barred from reporting.

I stand with European cousins,, that are wising up to the horrible damage that migration from 3rd world shitholes, is doing to their nations.

The idea for Sweden to "educate Somalis, to not rape the women, is ridiculous.

Likewise in England, the Pakis.

Fortunately there seems to be an awakening. The useless EU and the ineffective multiparty systems are impeding the will of common sense citizens.

People that actually do something useful like Robinson, are disparaged by weak individuals. Robinson is called a "nationalist,," for example.

Frank Cannon couldn't have said it better in reply 5 above.

England is down at the bow, sinking fast.

There's not much time left and unfortunately the system of government there will not help those who want to "save the ship".

Prediction:
Without a serious change in course, in fifty years Britain will have become "Britanistan"...

50? You, sir, are over-optimistic.  I give them 15.  The actions against Robinson are breathtaking in their injustice.

OK, so Britain isn't going down the Muzzie shithole.  Whatever you say, Boss.

How is the US's crime situation? Sometimes, I don't think we should be pointing fingers at others. Whatever you say boss.  Crime rates? Mass shootings? We have our own problems as well.

Believe me, I've seen foreigners respond about the USA when we have, say a school mass shooting or some horrible event like that.  "That's it for the USA, look at that". I just don't think we should be smug in criticizing others.

Biased BBC is a good website I've cited before.... and from reading it, I'd say there are still plenty of right-minded individuals in the UK. They are doing a thread at that blog on exactly Tommy Robinson being released:

R4 Midnight news
Their talking voice said “Robinson was filming within the precincts of Leeds Crown court”
.. that is not true AFAIK ..he specifically asked the police and always remained on the street, not on the steps , not on the doorway etc.

So that kinf of false reporting is prejudicial
