I aint going to speak up for TR/SYL because as I have said before I do not know as much as you do about his history…nor am I bothered either way tbh.
What I HAVE seen and heard for myself of him, is what I form a judgement about.
In that context, he talks a lot of (uncomfortable for some ) truth, says a lot of both what I hear myself from many people, and what I agree with myself…which is sufficient for me to form my opinions…ie ‘speak as you find’‘/make your OWN judgements’’ rather on what you are told, or told to believe by an official body with an agenda.
Now on the other hand there are no doubt episodes and clips out there that you can link, that I am not aware of, where he talks complete boll locks…but I will just concentrate on and form an opinion on what I have seen myself…as ever.
So…he reckons 100000 people attended his ‘British patriot and values’ march yesterday.
Now even if there is a small percentage of ‘ego exaggeration’, there was still a hell of a lot of people there.
Those who are totally sick of how indigenous people are not listened to, in favour of immigrants (legal AND illegal) who want to bring and instil there own values, laws customs, criminality and general ways on us that are both metaphorically and literally foreign to our culture.
But then you get clowns like Franglais who in a very narrow minded way intetpret that attitude as racism as a FIRST option and a default, without any thought. (ref his last post adressed to me personally, over an innocent and light hearted remark I made, coined by a mate…which kinda says it all)
The fact that the march had a contingent of British Black people and British Asians kinda makes a mockery of that old chestnut of shouting racism at every opportunity.
(And to balance…sure, quite a few racist idiot bad apples, as in everywhere.)
For instance I never see any non white participants on history docs featuring ‘The Beer Hall Putsch’ or ‘The Krystallnacht’ march, if we are going to make comparisons to Robinson and Hitler, and to Na zi type demonstrations as these type of people invariably do.
I notice as I said before, not a lot of mainstream media coverage was allocated to this news item, certainly much less to BLM and Palestinian sympathy demonstrations.
This new government has an opportunity to stop the woke and pc b/s, which concentrates on not wanting to offend certain religious groups, along with their pc indigenous Brit ‘offended by proxy’ liberal idiots, and make a better life for British people…AND incidentally also for inmigrants who want to come here, but are prepared to integrate,.and behave themselves…
But alas it is a Labour govt, so we need to wait and see…and hope.
As you rightly say he was warranted for arrest…on some trumped up charge.
Did he run, or just thumb his nose, knowing despite the ruling he has told no lies…who knows…who cares.
Way I see it he certainly has the establishment ‘rattled’ especially when they readily and casually write him off also as a racist or a nonentity so as not to show their concern
If I was him I’d be constantly watching my back, not only in the ‘Moslem ran’ jails they purposely send him to, but if he ever wishes to take a high speed short cut through a tunnel…
The British Establishment do not like people causing a stir…especially from those they see as plebian origin.
