What possible interest could the USA have in offering asylum to Stephen Yaxley-Lennon?
The former English Defence League leader, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, could face jail again for interfering with the trial of an Asian sex gang at Leeds Crown Court in May 2018. Two High Court judges found him guilty of contempt of court at the Old Bailey last week – which carries up to two years in jail – for ‘aggressively confronting and filming’ defendants while the jury considered its verdicts.
Dame Victoria Sharp said in a ruling published today: ‘His words had a clear tendency to encourage unlawful physical or verbal aggression towards identifiable targets. Harassment of the kind he was describing could not be justified’.
Ahead of the sentencing on Thursday, Robinson pleaded with President Trump to let him live in America, saying being sent to prison in the UK would be like a ‘death sentence’.
He told the far-right InfoWars website: ‘I beg Donald Trump, I beg the American government, to look at my case. I need evacuation from this country because dark forces are at work.
‘This is a direct appeal on behalf of my family – we love the United States, I have no future here [in Britain]. The country has fallen.’
The prosecution is a show trial, of course, meant to intimidate real English nationalists. But Tommy Robinson is not an English nationalist, he’s the working-class equivalent of a Ben Shapiro or Jordan Peterson. He is a cuck and a shill, and let’s face it, the USA has a sufficient supply of both at the moment.
I don’t recall old Tommy calling himself an American revolutionary, but rather, a Zionist. Let him turn to Israel if he wants out of Great Britain.
