Former English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson has failed in his bid to get elected to the European Parliament.
Mr Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, came in eighth place in the North West England region with 38,908 votes.
The far-right activist is a political adviser to the current Ukip leader Gerrard Batten.

I disagree.
How so?
None of the three people you named (two of whom I never heard of) got Trump elected. Trump got Trump elected.
I will not change my mind about this so it is not necessary to try and persuade me otherwise.
They are just a small sample of people who got Trump elected, there are scores of others who are also being deplatformed. You seem to underestimate their importance. Whilst Trump is busy being president, the MSM and leftist social media types are coming up with anti-Trump material and he has better things to do that spend time refuting everything, which is why he needs social media content creators to do this on his behalf, because collectively, they have a reach of 10s of millions, particularly younger people who will be voters long into the future. He scraped through at the last election because the establishment did not fully grasp the importance of social media, now they do and are working to ensure they are the only ones who set the narrative. Once Trump is gone, nobody else of his ilk will be able to use social media to reach an audience because they will be nipped in the bud long before their popularity becomes a threat. In the future you will NOT be able to win an election unless you and your supporters have the freedom to espouse your message on social media. This is a fact.
Farage is becoming like the GOPe.
Brexit wouldn’t let Tommy in. Farage left UKIP because they started fielding candidates like Tommy.
*****************************************
Are Farage and the Brexit Party politicians now part of the problem of willful blindness to Muslim grooming gangs and Muslim erosion of Western culture?
The UK's police force is more concerned about arresting people who post on Facebook than the grooming gangs. I've never heard Farage comment on this abomination.
As Tommy said, it was impossible for him to win once he was deleted from ALL social media. This is the plan they have for Trimp in 2020.
Sorry to hear that...I just hope the UKIP will reorganize or merge with Brexit...
“Farage is a snake who has sold out on every principle other than Brexit. He has abandoned talking about Islam or the encroaching police state and the sinister deplatforming and unpersoning of dissidents”
In other words, he is interested in winning elections and in eventually becoming PM.
Anti-Islam could become state policy by revolution, but never by elections.
Try again, Tommy.
Yeah, well, I guess we will never have a leader who will actually stop the rot. I can’t say how we won’t deserve it if we are too stupid to vote for a man of persona integrity and honesty like Gerard Batten.
“The UK’s police force is more concerned about arresting people who post on Facebook than the grooming gangs. I’ve never heard Farage comment on this abomination. “ I know right? When he isn’t banging on about Brexit he’s busy calling his ex-UKIP colleagues racist bigots and using the same smears that were used against him for years.
This dude has gone by aliases and started life as a soccer hooligan. (Though no doubt he was subsequently persecuted for his political perspective.) Did his vanity cost the Brexit cause a seat?
Indeed Tommy had his social media scrubbed, and banned. He got negative press all the time and the Brexit party only stands for Brexit and nothing else so the voters were torn between the two parties.
Hope he does as Tommy was scrubbed, and banned form the social media, The negative press hurt him from the media and the UKIP voters and Brexit were torn as Brexit only stands for Brexit and the voters were just looking at that and not all the bigger picture.
thanks for the link
They deny it, but there’s still the class distinctions over there. Even Margaret Thatcher took elocution lessons to learn to speak more effectively without the British woman’s typical falsetto tones (of that time, at least). Tommy is a diamond in the rough.
He is indeed, and yes there is still a massive class system there
