"Just to remind you, he isn't a murderer"

He assaulted many people. He could have easily accidentally murdered these people with one punch.

I've seen videos of him punching people out of the blue, and i'm suprised the other person got up.

[spathiphyllum]

"and neither is he a member of a grooming gang."

Yeah.. as far as we know.

[Mamyalynne]

Spath do stop veering off into realms of the ridiculous, it does your opinions no credit.

[spathiphyllum]

Call and response Mamy, i am simply responding to Naomi.

With a criminal list as long as Tommys, i wouldn't put anything by him.

[Mamyalynne]

It's not a game.

[naomi24]

Mamyalynne, //Be interesting to see how this pans out.//

Oh it will pan out …. but he won't be going to the US. My guess is that it will pan out by uniformed backs being turned and eyes engaged to watch being conveniently averted - again.

[Mamyalynne]

I agree about him not going to the USA.

I rarely comment on Tommy but I certainly would not wish his life to be in danger.

[naomi24]

Neither would I.

TR has a huge following in Australia & Canada, where his family would be safer from reproachment.

Sorry I meant “Irony for god’s Sake ANDY irony “
As if anyone cares

I thought it was as odd thing for pp ;-)

// TR has a huge following in Australia & Canada, where his family would be safer from reproachment.//

reproach, reproach for chrissakes

and anyway I think you mean retribution or reprisal ( no not reprise)

and yes it is a game ( to whomever said it is not a game)
who gives a monkey's ya-ya dangling in the wind if he swings or not? (sozza also been looking at Yr of the Rabbit)

[THECORBYLOON]

On Robinson's website it says, "I AM PREPARED TO DIE FOR FREEDOM OF SPEECH"

Does asking for asylum in the US not put that boast in doubt?

[anneasquith]

A publicity stunt, nothing more .

[Peter Pedant]

// Has Tommy made his plea to the President official or just told website InfoWars, does anyone know? //

erm I know I shouldnt inject a drop of common sense into this - - ferment - but
doncha have to be in the country before you claim asylum ?

yeah so all doze people in Mehico - they cant claim asylum until they cross / swim the Rio Grande entit?

I cd be wrong - I didnt do american asylum law at law school

[Peter Pedant]

oh, I do, I read every word.

I preferred: “Irony for god’s Sake and irony “

I thought it had more of the ring of poesy

[naomi24]

//doncha have to be in the country before you claim asylum ? //

The claimant has to be at a port of entry - but he hasn't 'claimed' asylum so, as spath would say, your question is 'moot' anyway.

[Peter Pedant]

moot or not
thx Nigh - oops

dammit I keep on looking at headlines and hey this one says
Tommy Robinson Seeks Asylum In The United States.

I read things on AB and believe them ! that's me I'm afraid

[naomi24]

//I read things on AB and believe them !//

No problem with that as long as you understand them. 'Seeks' doesn't equate to 'claims'. Must try harder.

[jno]

he'd make a jolly good British ambassador.

[Lie-in King]

jno - agreed, I think Peter would fit well in Washington ;-)
