    Default Re: Corbyn attacker get 28 days in prison, Robinson attacked and police do nothing.

    Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, had profited from both significant support from foreign donors and crowdfunding from individual donors around the world. The Middle East Forum, a Philadelphia-based think tank, said it had spent roughly $60,000 (£48,000) on “Free Tommy” demonstrations in London last year.

    In a media interview during his failed campaign to be elected as a member of the European parliament, Robinson suggested the MEF had paid £78,000 in legal fees for his ongoing contempt of court case, but the think tank has not confirmed the sum.

    Robinson was also a beneficiary of a “fellowship” from US tech billionaire Robert Shillman that bolstered his salary from Canadian website Rebel Media, where he worked from early 2017 until February last year.
    Robinson has also sought funding from Israeli backers and visited the country.
    In a leaked video where he boasted about scoring drugs, Robinson claimed to have spoken to Benjamin Netanyahu, adding: “I got my Zionist card out and said I am a Zionist and I bought us everything. Shalom motherf***er.”
    Earlier this month, he posted a photo on his Telegram channel wearing a hat emblazoned with the Israeli flag with the caption: “I need your shekels.”
    Robinson has continued to ask for donations from British supporters by claiming money was needed for causes including his MEP campaign, a bus, protests, security and legal claims.

    He received almost £20,000 of donations in Bitcoin alone during his two-month imprisonment last year and in October revealed there was still “a pot in excess of a few hundred thousand pounds” left.
    Robinson portrayed himself as a member of the working class during his attempt to become an MEP, but his family’s home is currently on the market for £915,000.
    Situated in an affluent village, a listing said the home had “no expense spared” and featured underfloor heating, an annex and hot tub.

    Ezra Levant, founder of the Rebel, has been covering Robinson’s ongoing legal case and crowdfunding for activists to travel to Britain to counter “mainstream media” reporting.....

    So what? You appear to be jealous of anyone with a following a bit of money. Robinson was born into a working class community. However his step Dad and Mum worked hard and instilled in him a good work ethic and so he knew the value of work and having got got advice from people he worked for managed to get himself in the property market building up several homes. If he had just stayed quiet he would likely be an Al or an X by now, but instead took the path of speaking out.

    Of course Robinson operates by donations and groups offering him money. Is he supposed to get a job in Tesco's which is not even good enough for you? Nobody will hire him in a regular job now due to the risks and thus he operates by donations.

    Robinson is working class, there is no escaping growing up in a rough community, not knowing your father, and having to work your way from basic beginnings. That is by definition working class. Some do indeed manage to rise up somehow, but you cannot escape yourself or what you are. Tommy Robinson is hardly Chelsea Clinton or the son of Jeremy Corbyn is he now?
