    Just seen this clip on line. A loonatic beating a man with a stick, and who do the police push back? You guessed it. How was that guy not arrested.
    What happened to free speech?
    I was of the opinion that all these anti Muslims were just little racist Englanders but each day I begin to see where they're coming from. Rotherham, Telford, ect.

    While this is a violent reaction. Tommy Robinson's is spreading hate speech. He is not any better than the Neo-Fascists and Jihadists.

    I’m gonna go out on a limb here and guess that if it was a Muslim spreading hate speech at speakers corner and Tommy Robinson turned up with a stick, he’d be accused of being in the wrong too??

    He's not promoting friendly relations with the Muslim community. Why does he not spend more time helping his own community? Plenty of White gangs in England who are doing bad things.

    I'm just going on the video I've watched. Raging, angry men, hitting people with a length of pipe and it's the guy he hits who gets pulled away by police. All you take from that video is how Tommy is a thug??

    He's spreading the truth, but society is now so afraid to speak out against Islam and how hateful it really is free speech is anything but.

    I'm a firm believer in fighting words with words. Hitting people because you disagree with them just isn't right in my head.

    Wouldn't mind seeing the thirty seconds of video leading up to that incident to be honest.

    While NOT CONDONING THE ATTACK (something that always needs to be made clear) - if you're going to have a march and openly call it "anti-" something you can expect a few people with being of the group you specify, it's all part and parcel of being a nazi/fascist/whatever. if it was an anti-catholic march, you'd get the same. If it was an anti-fascist march you'd get the same.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    He founded the English Defense League, the name choice tells you all you need to know what he is about. Football hooligans and Fascists joined the group. The same assholes who rioted at Lansdowne Road in 1995

    Nearly as tired as constantly looking to stir up anti Islam sentiment.
    Nearly but not quite.

    The speech Robinson reading was from an Austrian far rightist called Martin Sellner who has put out the usual tropes about blacks, Jews and also the need for a white ethnostate. Robinson is directly allying with these people and anyone who thinks he's a normal Luton chap expressing some fair concerns about Islam alone would want their head looked at.
