The normalisation of the far-right continues

I wonder if the " Asian " grooming gang up in Court at the time had to pay their costs.

I would reckon not.

Ok he did a stupid thing, twice, but this sentence is all about who he is and not so much about what he did.

Anyone deemed to be far right will be silenced, just look at Facebook, Twitter etc.

 

Calling out racism and divisive rhetoric is not silencing people. Plenty of far-right material is available to digest on social media; the situation it's proponents encounter is that decent people with decent values will always call out these points of view for what they are and no 'Establishment' is required for this to happen. For some reason the 'far-right'  (whatever that is anyway) has decided it is the last bastion of free speech and child protection, whereas the reality is quite the opposite.  They glorify their position by turning these issues into some kind of racially charged point scoring exercise whereas it's a problem for society in general; acting like they do allows the actions of perpetrators to go unnoticed or unchallenged. That's why Steven has got the jail.

What is the relevance of Facebook and Twitter?

Kind of. I had you in such high regard as a purveyor of defending racist halfwits and cat pictures. Where else could I get those things on the internet? Now I'm all sad.

Not defending anyone, just questioning this corrupt government/judiciary system.

Thank you.

Judge says he's done something illegal, puts him on suspended sentence. Does it again, gets the pokey. It's in much the same vein as smacking the wife around or driving while pished. If we're questioning why jeopardising paedophile trials is illegal, then I'm with you. Tommy should have been waiting for the lads outside with big bags of sweets and maps of the playgrounds in the local area. Corrupt governmenty b*****ds.

Poor Tommy was trying to corrupt the judiciary system, that's why he got banged up.

Shocked that the huge Morrissey fan is defending wee Tommeh tbh.

 

There’s a number of decent articles about Morrissey fans who are totally disillusioned about the political and racist views that he’s expressed.

People who have been fans since they started listening to music talking about feeling “betrayed” by his position.

Billy Bragg wrote a pretty good piece recently and the Twitter response is interesting.

Why is it Tommy Robinson in particular who's caused you to question it?
