Return of the Yax? Unsurprisingly, Skrill's linked tweets are incorrect.
Yaxley or Robinson or Harris, or whatever he's calling himself these days, won his appeal relating to the charges in Leeds but faces a retrial so it's yet to be decided if he's innocent of those. Still guilty of the charges from Canterbury as his appeal about those failed. So it seems he's not been proven innocent yet.
It's a re-hearing rather than a re-trial isn't it? In front of a different judge? The argument was all about the failure to consider mitigating circumstances and the length of the sentence for what he pleaded guilty to in Canterbury. All the Tommy Robinson apologists conveniently ignore the fact that he pleaded guilty to contempt on both counts.

I've not followed it all closely enough so you're probably correct.
Have to say, from what I've read he seems to be a bit of an odd character. I can't help but wonder if his 'activism' isn't just a way of making a decent living for him these days. A convicted fraudster on a number of occasions so it wouldn't surprise me if he's willing to spend a bit of time in the clink from time to time in order to make a bit of money. I don't doubt folks on the far right are willing to bung him some money and he's done stuff with various bits of the media in recent years which has probably paid as well.
Still a horrible scrote, of course.

As the saying goes:-
Never try to play chess with a pigeon. He knocks over all the pieces, sh1ts all over the board, and then struts around like he has won.
Was going to bite to one of Grim's ridiculous posts and then I saw this. Absolutely spot on.

Not a binary choice though, is it? You don't have to pick one or the other when both are wrong. These gangs of alleged sexual predators (who apparently happen to be not very observant Muslims) were entitled to a fair trial. His grandstanding could have led to a mistrial and potentially guilty men going free. I see Yax has a history of beating up his missus in public as well as the criminal fraud and other various convictions he's had for violence so he's hardly a model citizen, is he? I still maintain that he's more of a chancer than a serious political activist. Apparently his reunion with his (very upset) kids was filmed and immediately released as a propaganda piece. What sort of a toerag do you have to be to use your kids in such a way? The 'Tommy Robinson' sort.

That’s not fascism - you’re thinking of “capitalism”, my mate.
Farage can sit and spout his views all day but there’s no requirement that he should get paid for doing so, and that Joe Public should foot the bill.
If all those brands are happy to sponsor his views, and put their money where their mouth is then they are free to do so. If however what they actually care about is profit, then that’s a decision they have to make.
Unlucky for you that.

Where are these Muslims wanting Sharia Law in Britain?
There are various sources saying 4 in 10 or just over 40% want Sharia law to replace parts of British law. There are 80 practicing Sharia courts around the United Kingdom. While there are undoubtedly lots of different councils and tribunals dealing with Sharia principles, they are not courts of law. It's not clear how many exist, or how many different types there are. To see Sharia in action search "What Life Is Like Under Sharia Law" and "Women and Sharia Law" [youtube]3SPkw-1_rb0[/youtube]
