Presumably he's not going to be on the ballot paper as 'Tommy Robinson' which will confuse a few

Islamophobe interviews Islamaphobe to make comforting video for other Islamophobes?
He’ll be in meltdown when he sees the way the BBC have listed candidates for the North West, look towards the end of the list

hehe

“Put me in the same group knowing I’d be attacked!”
That's how the ballot paper looks, it doesn't even list him as independent, he is just listed under "Tommy Robinson" as in party name. But still at the bottom.

Are you even allowed to be elected under a pseudonym? Or has he actually changed his name by deed poll?
Nomination form requires your real name, but you can be listed as the name you're commonly known by. https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/__data/asse...
Did David Sutch appear as Screaming Lord Sutch for the OMRLP? Oh how we need him now to bring some sanity back to UK politics!

It'll be interesting to see just how many votes he gets in his quest to become an MEP and part of the thing he despises. Of course he'll then blame the Police, or Muslims, or the establishment for his loss. Assuming he doesn't claim the whole process isn't rigged obviously.
I was down on the South Coast last week and popped into a fishmongers in Selsey and a burley looking chap behind the counter had a ‘Vote Tommy’ t-shirt on. I don’t think he will get in but I certainly don’t see him losing his deposit.

Oldham is starting to look like Northern Ireland.
As long as it's only people in the south who want to vote for him he won't get in as he's running for being an MEP in the North West for some reason.

Lots and lots of mill towns with high Muslim populations and high levels of white scroungers keen to blame everything on them. Not sure there’s enough of them to outweigh the more sensible types though. It’ll all be down to turnout on the day. Traditionally that’s very low, so could work in his favour. Many will stupidly think they’re voting for him as PM or something equally daft.

Hi TM - in terms of the "radical muslims" question he makes the distinction only when he's absolutely pinned down on it by interviewers. I stand to be corrected but I have never seen him make the distinction whilst standing in front of a crowd delivering one of his speeches.

In exactly the same vein his crusade against "grooming gangs" is targetted wholly against muslims. Now i don't disagree that the vast majority of those involve din grooming gangs were from a muslim background but the fact that "this" is his chosen crusade does make me think that he doesn't really give a toss about CSE unless its something that supports his "Ooooh muslims" agenda.

He left the EDL because Quillam Foundation agreed to pay him £2k a month. That was a lot of money to TR back then , however he has since found wealthier sugar daddies who want him to continue preaching his islamophobic messages
CD,

Predominantly 'Pakistani Muslims'. Actually this has been quietly stated by Muslims from other countries.

Phil
How does a radical Muslim differ from a normal Muslim, and what defines a normal Muslim.

Unlike the Catholic Church there is no specific leader and different groups interpret the religious texts as they see fit. Surely one mans radical is another mans normal ?

You are quite right the BBC must be stupid as soon are people read the story they will be looking on YouTube for footage of the clash only to find that the BBC were twisting what happened and the result will be a few more votes for Robinson

Just tho other side of the coin. There's plenty of footage of TR followers acting in the same childish manner.

They'll also find videos of James Goddard challenging the MDL thugs to a fight (while running away ... )

And the video of the "Muslim with a gun" which actually seems to be a mobile phone.

Stupid behaviour by the MDL, going out to stir up trouble, but not a surprising reaction to the violent group of supporters Tommy seems to attract.

They're only comment on what apparently occurred was, "Footage posted on social media showed clashes between his supporters and counter-demonstrators in Limeside."

Jessica Swietoniovski. Swietoniovski? Sounds like a Pole to me. Surely there should be some sort of Brexit message in there, at the very least she’s an immigrant. I’m basing that logic on the view that any Muslims referenced on here are considered Pakistani, not British.

Yes, yes, I know she’s a yank, but my point stands.

Indeed. That’s Quite common. For example there are some people who regard Tommy and the EDL as “normal”.

Quick to mention Robinson's previous EDL links yet no mention of the other group calling itself the Muslim Defence League the BBC story reads like Robinson's mob were doing the majority of the unrest when both sides are equally to blame.

Here is the Manchester local version of events.
