Tommy Robinson flees to Spain as an asylum seeker ... Edited by GNHQ

I wonder if the upcoming libel case against him is the reason the property is in his wife’s name? I also wonder if he speaks, or will learn to speak, Spanish?
I seem to remember him asking Donald Trump for political asylum last year, which was presumably refused. I haven’t seen him asking Spain for asylum, so maybe he’s just moving there ‘for his own safety’.Who knows?

Apparently he's eligible for an Irish passport. If he has one, he's still an EU citizen, so would have the right to live in Spain. Oh the irony!

We are always being told there are no right wing extremists on GN, but I don't know what else I would call someone who claims to be a suppporter of Tommy Robinson.

I can think of loads, but my posts would be deleted.

To be fair I've only seen one post that's said that they support him, all the rest have been condemnatory.

Quizqueen is a supporter of Tommy Robinson? Well, who would have guessed? ?

He won't be short of English speaking subjects of his ilk there !

Sorry for my ignorance....but who is Tommy Robinson?

A bigoted man. Google him.

Spain’s not far enough.... now if the moon had a flight going
I d help him onto it and even pay his fare
He’s a far right racist and extremely violent nasty piece of goods I think bigoted is not strong enough to describe him more like spawn of the devil

I am a supporter of Tommy but, yes, I do agree, it's quite ironic. Not sure of the truth about his wife's house being set on fire but I see no criticism of that crime on here, if it is true!

Blimey! Very brave of you to admit supporting such a racist and facist. There aren’t many would admit to that.

I’ve asked GN to change the title of this thread before they get sued.

Well done

I didn't see the original title, thankfully, as I'd have been very worried. Baldrick deserting a sinking ship. He couldn't, he's an institution.

Spain has more sense, surely?
But we don't want him back so perhaps we could start a petition to keep him there.

I can't decide should I celebrate because he's gone? Or commiserate with my Spanish brothers and sisters because they have to put up wih him now?

And I still haven't found out why Tommy Robinson is seeking asylum.
biba70, please could you confirm where you got this from as there's nothing in the media at all to support this? I want to know if he'll be claiming refugee status in Spain!

There doesn't seem to be anything on here to suggest his flight is to escape the ravages of Brexit.

But I thought he was against refugees and immigrants?

Can't be so Callistemon, the OP states quite clearly Tommy Robinson flees to Spain as an asylum seeker. So, under what grounds is he seeking asylum? It would be quite ironic if it turns out to be true wouldn't it!

It's a but sensationalist.

He's moving here under the rules of the transition period and hoping to get Spanish nationality before 31st January 2021.

Please, please, Spain, say yes. ?

Bit

Lost my stylus.

There

Oh b****r
Fat fingers.

Spain’s just too close what about Wuhan ?

What right has he, or any UK citizen, got to enter Spain?

Thanks to the brexit nonsense (which he and many other appalling people, seemed to support) we no longer have freedom of movement within the other 27 EU countries.

Own goal!

Still waiting.....

We and he are allowed to do so during the transition period.
Or so I thought.
