Going by Robinson's gagging by social media, it would be hard to argue against that.

Or perhaps the left have taken the moral high ground now, making public opinion see the left as the perceived good and the right, the perceived bad?
That's what's happened over the last 10-20 years, but the rate at which it's spiralling out of control over the last couple of years is off the scale for me. We're racing full on into ridiculous political over correctness, where everyone sees themselves a victim or has to create one to feel guilty over, be it ethnic minorities, gays, blokes who like to wear dresses, black millionaire footballers or the 1 on 4 kids who appear to have been diagnosed with a form of autism. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

These things go in cycles. You are part of a backlash against political correctness which is gathering strength over time and will culminate with a Government that panders to YL and his views in order to stay in power. Look what happened with the Brexit farce - that was as a result of a Government pandering to the Right....
As for the Left having a moral high ground, 10 years ago perhaps but not any longer. The Right-wing MSM and social media has done such a good job on JC and the Labour Party that it is unelectable now. JC hasn't helped himself admittedly...
Social media used to be full of videos of cats falling off sofas. Now it is full of TM spoofs and pictures of JC with the IRA. The traditional of people voting for the same party throught their lives is dying, and people are taking more notice of internet-savvy propaganda. It comes from Right and Left despite your protestations about YL being removed. ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

I wasn't referring to you. Donk has been banging on for months about his trial where the sentence was quashed, and has stated that the judge said there was absolutely no way he could have interfered with the administration of justice. Now, despite the fact that the transcripts have been released, which show absolutely fuck all evidence of what Donk suggests, he was still adamant that the judge said what he said. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

Not a flame at all. All you're doing is trying to hide the facts, just like you claim the left do. ____________________ Mpd72: I can categorically say i’m Brighter than that, no matter how I come across on here.

I'd take his sacking with a pinch of salt too because it looks like it was another attack from the Muslim hugging far left "New Statesman", much like the discrediting and silencing of Robinson, which deliberately twisted and put out of context what he actually said. This is why Robinson is now recording his own copy of everything he says with press around.
Quote: | The Roger Scruton scandal is indeed disturbing. Not because of what Roger Scruton said, but because of what the New Statesman did. In order to score a hit against a conservative philosopher cum Tory adviser who has always rubbed leftists up the wrong way, the New Statesman’s deputy editor dispensed with the ethics of journalism, wilfully distorted a quotation, and inferred racism where, to the best of our knowledge, none exists. Scruton’s comments were not particularly shocking, but the New Statesman’s behaviour was.
Scruton had been a housing adviser to the Conservative government. Yesterday he was sacked for his ‘unacceptable comments’ in the New Statesman interview, as the minister of housing put it. Reading the general media coverage of the scandal, and the New Statesman’s promotion of the interview online, you could be forgiven for thinking that these ‘unacceptable comments’ from Scruton included anti-Chinese racism and anti-Semitism. But they didn’t; it only looks that way because of the New Statesman’s unethical sleight of hand and virtual misquotation – usually a huge no-no in the world of respectable journalism.
All those who think Scruton expressed racial hatred against Chinese people and Jews really should read the interview. They might find that they have more questions for the New Statesman’s deputy editor, George Eaton, who conducted the interview, than they do for Scruton. Take the claims of anti-Chinese racism. In his Twitter-summary of Scruton’s comments, Mr Eaton has the philosopher saying the following: ‘Each Chinese person is a kind of replica of the next one and that is a very frightening thing.’ That would indeed be a racist thing to say, playing on the stereotype that all Chinese people look and behave the same. But that isn’t what Scruton said. He said: ‘They’re creating robots out of their own people… each Chinese person is a kind of replica of the next one and that is a very frightening thing.’
So Scruton, it seems, was talking about the Chinese Communist Party and its expectation of conformism from the populace, not the Chinese people. By taking his comments out of context, Mr Eaton, quite wilfully it seems, turned criticism of a tyrannical government into a racist slur against a whole people. But it’s even worse than that. Mr Eaton did not only take the comments out of context – he also changed them, in a small but nonetheless important way. In his tweet, his use of a capital ‘E’ on ‘Each’ – in order to make the sentence ‘Each Chinese person is a kind of replica of the next one and that is a very frightening thing’ look like a standalone comment – is, to all intents and purposes, a misquotation. In the actual interview article, the ‘each’ has a small ‘e’, and is preceded by ellipsis, because it was clearly part of a broader comment by Scruton on the authoritarian nature of contemporary China. A journalist has misrepresented the views of a public figure to make him seem racist – isn’t that more scandalous than Scruton’s strong-worded critique of what he views as Chinese conformism?
What about anti-Semitism? Again, Scruton says nothing in the interview that could be construed as anti-Jewish hatred, and yet the New Statesman infers that he did. Scruton made critical comments about the ‘Soros empire’ in Hungary. He was referring to George Soros, the Hungarian-American philanthropist who funds many so-called ‘progressive’ think-tanks and institutions. Soros is Jewish, and according to some liberal observers, this means any criticism of him is by definition anti-Semitic. This is a perverse idea. Is there a ‘Soros empire’ in Hungary? That’s certainly not a phrase I would use, but it is an indisputable fact that Soros funds various groups inside Hungary and across Europe. The depiction of all anti-Soros criticism as anti-Semitic is dodgy on two levels in particular. First, it demonises and seeks to silence all public discussion of a billionaire and his political interests. And secondly, it seriously harms the crucial struggle against resurgent anti-Semitism by weaponising accusations of anti-Semitism to the cynical end of silencing dissent on Soros and his political role – and this can only deepen the depressing cynicism that already exists towards the seriousness of anti-Semitism. |

I can't imagine for a second the venerable institution that is the Conservative and Unionist Party sacking one of its own on the strength of alleged misquotes alone... More to this than meets the eye perhaps? ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M

"On 23rd May vote for Tommy Robinson and send him to the European Parliament as MEP for North West England."
"They’re laughing at us.
All of them — Theresa May, Jeremy Corbyn, the European Union bureaucrats. 17.4 million of us voted for Brexit, but they don’t care about people like us. They’ve tried to silence us, and they took away our democratic rights by betraying Brexit.
The election on 23rd May is how we fight back. Put me right inside the EU and they won’t know what hit them. They’ll long for the days when it was just Nigel Farage.
I admire what Farage achieved in the past. But at the end of the day, he’s just another millionaire stockbroker who looks down at the working classes. And he’s terrified of talking about issues like the Islamification of Britain. He won’t fight the battle for the heart of our country — in fact he bad-mouths those who do.
I’ve spent a decade fighting for Britain — especially for the forgotten people who have no voice. The elites have tried to silence my own voice, whether it’s throwing me in jail on trumped up charges of contempt of court for my journalism, or pressuring social media companies to delete my Facebook page. As a community activist, and then as a journalist, I’ve always fought for the British people, from the very first day I saw how our armed forces were abused in the streets. Now it’s time to move that fight right into the heart of the EU itself.
If you elect me to the European Parliament, I’ll represent you, the working class of England. Whether it’s enforcing our borders and cutting back on immigration, or taking back our national sovereignty to make British decisions in Britain, or fighting to preserve our national identity against Islamification, I’m on the side of the people. Right now, only 4% of our MPs are working class and it shows."
https://www.votetommy.co.uk/
Would vote for him because I think it would be funny for him to send him to the European Parliament. |

In his own words he has set up several businesses and owns his own home. Also he is funded by donations. How does this make him a representative of the working classes, as by definition he isn't a member? He is just like Corbyn, Abbot etc in this respect without the education.

I agree, it would be entertaining to see him in the European Parliament though. I presume he won't be claiming a salary or expenses from the trough... ____________________ Now - Speed Triple, old ratty GS550, GSXR750M
