Tommy Robinson

The truth is that if the 'grooming gangs' had not existed, the extremist racists would have found another outlet for their vile propaganda against immigrants, most of whom are peaceable and law-abiding. Those gangs played into their filthy hands,

My DNA is 75% British, the rest is made up of Scottish/Irish and European as would many be exactly the same who were born in this country.

Tommy Robinson highlighted these crimes because they were covered up.

TR highlighted this issue before due process of law had been completed. That's contempt of court.

He did it to draw attention to his own agenda, before the MSM (as some like to call it) could legally report it.

Once due process was complete, the story was all over the - er - MSM.

Just so you're clear on this, Johnno, I think I'm right in saying that all GN contributors would condemn these heinous crimes. No one wanted the perpetrators to go free. And certainly not through the misguided actions of a fanatical self publicist.

Johno You claim to have proof of things but do not produce that proof. You again choose to ignore the request to clarify what you mean when you say most GNs don't know why the EDL was formed. As it would appear you don't know I will inform you.

The EDL was formed as an over the top response to a demonstration by a few Muslims at a welcome home parade for returning military personnel. An action which was condemned by the majority of Muslims in UK. A few racists used this to form an organisation which goes against the very principles our armed forces fought and died to protect.

The grooming gangs are obnoxious and have been sentenced, you cannot condemn a whole race or religious group by the actions of a few.

If you choose to hate a group of people because of their race or religion do not use the suffering of young girls to justify it.

Well said, Oldwoman70! Johno is doing exactly what they accuse the media of doing - twisting the facts to suit their own agenda.

Sadly the Jews fall foul of the backlash from parties such as TR's. By misbelieving the Holocaust and blaming the Jews for just wanting sympathy. They are the party of deniers which is wrong in every respect.

Jews have been the lifeblood of this country ! Shalom.

Johno of course we hate the men in the Huddersfield grooming gangs. The are a thoroughly wicked lot. But we don't hate all muslims willy-nilly. Robinson does. I hope you don't.

I don't believe Tommy Robinson cares at all about those young girls. He is band-waggoning. All Tommy Robinsons cares about is Tommy Robinson. (As illustrated by his angry self pitying rantings outside the Court)

He is a hater through and through. It's in his veins.

You say you are ex-military. Does that mean you are unreasonably influenced the killing of Lee Rigby? Understandable if that's so, but you can't spout your hatred on this website. Just as Robinson can't be allowed to spout his mindless hatred in the wider world.

tickingbird I think I have answered your post as to why I think any Tommy Robinson supporters should eff off of this website.

Gonegirl - well said indeed!

Gonegirl you’ve answered nothing. You’ve reverted to form and expletives and can’t explain yourself.

Blondiescot is following blindly. What exactly did GoneGirl say so well? Eff off?? Baa Baa

Well said gonegirl

Could someone please take tickingbird's crayons away - it's past their bedtime!

Blondie???And then s/he’ll probably thcream and thcream until s/he’s thick ( oh that’s more apposite than I realised it would be )

I think there are people who have come on here as spokespersons for the EDL and other ultra nationalist/racist groups. It is probably part of their role in these organisations to monitor sites such as this in order to generate racial hatred and defend those that propagate it.

I'm pleased to see that they haven't received a great deal of support for their racist views on here.

Blondiescot, GoneGirl, suziewooziewoo - Really? I mean is that it? I haven’t read anything on this thread that justifies telling others that they can’t come on here spouting their hatred and racist views. I haven’t read anything remotely racist. Unfortunately, true to form, you have resorted to abuse and silly attacks. On another thread suziewoozie withdrew as she felt she was under personal attack yet calls me thick!! Oh the irony!!

I don’t think these people who have suddenly crawled out of the woodwork are TR ‘apologists’...it seems much more organised than that.

Did these infiltraters imagine that they would find support and fellow nazis among the right wing grandmothers on this site? Perish the thought!

I suggest all of you crawl back into your little racist slime pits.

Tickingbird - anyone who supports Tommy Robinson is a racist. That’s it really. Go away.

No suziewoozie I won’t go away. I don’t support Tommy Robinson. I support reasoned debate. Mudslinging again you see. Beyond laughable.

You know we periodically get these people on GN who seem to speak for the far right. They largely stay just the right side of the line in order to not get banned, but it is usually crystal clear what their message is, and why they provoke such a big reaction from the regular long term posters.

One or two things will happen. Eventually they will go away, and these posts will cease. Or, and particularly if an election is called their posts will increase in intensity.

We could react in one or two ways.

We could refuse to feed the beast that is the far right, and eventually it will die of starvation, and disappear, or we can try to counteract the racism, homophobia and hate with our arguments. But do we truly think that will work?

I’d rather starve the beast.

OK my message will doubtless be deleted by GN but I’m going to report it myself as it’s obvious thar this thread has been targeted, deliberately invaded by disgusting, ignorant, racist little trolls trying to spread their pathetic message of hatred.

Have you not got the message yet Yobs? Fuck off we don’t want you on here.

From what I’ve seen on TV and read on this thread you are hardly the epitome of white superiority, far from it. Yuk!

Message deleted by Gransnet. Here's a link to our Talk Guidelines.

I have some sympathy with the ‘starve the beast’ approach but the problem is that these racists will see our silence as a victory or agreement. Also I worry how it looks to anyone reading threads with unchallenged racist comments - silence can be seen as silent agreement.

anja ? at least your passion and hatred of the far right might achieve taking this thread down, but be warned they will be back.?
