This is the same Tommy Robinson running for election to the EU which we always being told is actually a dictatorship. Not only is the video evidence there of him campaigning just like Nigel to join the elite career politician gravy train, but he is all over the free press. From far right wing rags like the Daily Heil to the leftist Guardian and everything inbetween. He has already broken a load of electoral laws in giving out free food and providing entertainment but he is carrying on. He may well if he is imprisoned in his forthcoming case be breaking yet another law in even standing for election, so spare us all the innocent Tommy rubbish.
Nobody seems to be acknowledging Tommy and his heavies keenness to shut the mouth of anyone using their democratic voice to protest, or the blatant constant aggressive stance taken by finger wagging getting in your face Tommy and the thugs who surround him. Yes of course people with whom we disagree should be allowed the right to speak but that does not extend to them dictating who the law should apply to, insisting that the right to spread violence, division and hatred are also ensconced within that same privilege.
People have thrown eggs etc at campaigning politicians for years. Not until Prescott the new labour thug puched some bloke back has it now been seen as acceptable to pretend that politicians are OK to rain punches down onto people like Tommy has for years now.
Milo and I am a Dinner Jacket maybe both confused homosexuals with a distaste for their own attractions, but there the similarity ends. I understand your disgust at the whole deplatforming thing, particularly at Universities but you will find the same attitude amongst the very heart of the rhetoric espoused by those that they oppose. There is no respect there in Milo or Gavin or Tommy for any kind of reasonable debate. Like Peterson they throw verbal hand grenades and then feign alarm when people acting on their extremist nonsense go out and harass, bully, attack and murder people they have painted as enemies of the people. They are just as sickening and twisted as the tabloid press.
