Tommy Robinson

[anotheoldgit]

May be this should be in the TV section, but here goes.
Last night Ross Kempt visited HM Belmarsh. Prison and spoke to Tommy Robinson.
Why on earth did they incarsinate Tommy in the most secure prison of the land when his only crime was commiting a breach of the peace?

[emmie]

does he have previous convictions??

[Zacs-Master]

For his own safety?

emmie makes a good point (yes, he does.....quite a few).

[anotheoldgit]

Not severe ones such as the rest of the mass murders, terrorists, rapists etc. That are inmates.

[emmie]

if he has then that has been taken into account. Not sure i agree with him being in Belmarsh, but i haven't done anything wrong and he so obviously has.

[Zacs-Master]

'was placed in the isolated Contingency Suite for his own safety'

Why did the prison authorities feel it necessary to place him in an isolated contingency suite.

[Zacs-Master]

erm.....for his own safety. Apparently.

[Togo]

In danger from who or what?

[Zacs-Master]

Julian Assange?

/// Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was imprisoned again in July after “aggressively confronting and filming” defendants accused of the sexual exploitation of young girls and livestreaming the footage outside Leeds crown court on Facebook ///.

Oh yes we can't have anyone filming these perverts can we?

[emmie]

from the Muslim terrorists, suspects.... hotheads who want to make a name for themselves.

No we can't, not if those actions could possibly undermine the chances of a conviction.

[Jackdaw33]

I thought he was out now.

[THECORBYLOON]

He was released last September.

[Zacs-Master]

Been quiet lately hasn't he. Do you think his experience has perhaps mellowed him?

[emmie]

unlikely.. ^^

[Deskdiary]

It was stated in the programme last night that all prisoners convicted at the Old Bailey are, in the first instance, sent to Belmarsh.

If you believe that you will believe anything, they will say anything to cover up these Muslim perverts.

[Zacs-Master]

But they weren't covered up. They were, despite SYL's attempts to pervert the course of justice, convicted.

His actions led one of the Muslim defendant's to be able to consider an appeal:
