All the usual suspects gloating. Predictably.
But really this is banana republic stuff. He's a political prisoner. He said things the government doesn't like, and he found a large audience, so he's in gaol as an example. A long stretch of it in solitary confinement, apparently.

Didn’t he plead guilty (not before grifting for donations for his defence)?

I love how you can always count on someone to feel sorry for the bloke.But really this is banana republic stuff. He's a political prisoner.

Even with his appalling record of violence and criminality.

I agree that the “ usual suspects “ would be all over this like a fly to sheeeytee but the rest is guff, Stephen Yaxley Lennon is a throbbing pustule of a human being, a rectum of the highest order, a knuckle dragging ape who appeals only to like minded individuals.But really this is banana republic stuff.

Yes.Didn’t he plead guilty (not before grifting for donations for his defence)?
Contempt of court and other offences along the lines of tricking or disrespecting the justice system is punished too heavily IMO, but he doesn't get sentences out of line with anyone else given his long criminal record.

I totally agree with this. TR is a bit daft as he's provoked the establishment. There are people risking the streets that have done much worse than he has. But really this is banana republic stuff. He's a political prisoner. He said things the government doesn't like, and he found a large audience, so he's in gaol as an example. A long stretch of it in solitary confinement, apparently.
It's about time they packed it in so it does is grow support for him. I would say I'm just about holding onto my centre left beliefs but I genuinely think I'd you look back at a lot of the stuff TR has said he's not been wrong about much.
If nothing else it's undeniable he's been subject to a political witch hunt. What's he done? Shown a film and stood on some court steps.
Those mocking him you are mocking your own freedoms going down the toilet friends. You don't have to agree with his politics to agree with his principals. He's given up everything for his beliefs which is more than most will ever do about anything.

Which of these convictions are a result of him "provoked the establishment"?
Assault?
Threatening, abusive or insulting behaviour?
Using a false passport?
Mortgage Fraud?
Contempt of Court?
Stalking?
Seems clear he is not a nice person. Also seems clear that his views are being subject to a campaign of silencing. He was right about rape gangs....it's just he is also a nasty racist. But being 1 thing does not make another thing untrue.Assault?
Threatening, abusive or insulting behaviour?
Using a false passport?
Mortgage Fraud?
Contempt of Court?
Stalking?
From Wiki:
Robinson was arrested again after an EDL demonstration in Tower Hamlets in September 2011 for breach of bail conditions, as he had been banned from attending that demonstration. Robinson later began a hunger strike while on remand in HM Prison Bedford, saying that he was a "political prisoner of the state"
He has a history of being told he can't do one specific thing or he will be arrested, does that one specific thing, gets arrested, then does a shocked Pikachu face and calls himself a political prisoner.

And it is always the same ones in every thread. I recognise that charmer as one who always trots out whatever pro-kremlin drivel they have been fed.Even with his appalling record of violence and criminality.

Unlike his supporters he’s not stupid. He does it because it generates a huge amount of £££ via the grifting.Robinson was arrested again after an EDL demonstration in Tower Hamlets in September 2011 for breach of bail conditions, as he had been banned from attending that demonstration.
