Exclusive — Delingpole: A Visit to Tommy Robinson in Belmarsh Maximum Security Prison
breitbart ^ | 12 Sep 2019 | JAMES DELINGPOLE

Posted on 09/12/2019 1:22:27 PM PDT by MarvinStinson

Tommy Robinson is in the same prison cell formerly occupied by Michael Adebelajo – one of the two Islamic terrorists who murdered Fusilier Lee Rigby.

Of all things I learned from my visit to see Robinson that detail was perhaps the most extraordinary: a man convicted for the venial slip of ‘contempt of court’ should end up being given the same treatment as a vicious killer who ran over an off-duty soldier in broad daylight on a London street and then nearly severed his head with a knife.

Belmarsh maximum security jail houses many of Britain’s worst terrorists. Security is ultra-tight.

But the prisoners in the terrorist wing get far greater freedom than Tommy Robinson does: they’re let out of their cells into a communal area for most of the day where they can play pool and other games.

Robinson is confined to his cell from 11 am every day. His only time out of solitary confinement is the hour he gets to spend every morning trudging around a grim prison yard, plus another hour in the cell next door to his on an exercise bike.

Robinson thinks it’s ridiculous having been sentenced for a straight criminal offence — one with no victim — that he should have been sent to Britain’s highest category prison mostly reserved for terrorists and other murderers rather than a category C one somewhere in the provinces.

After his last spell in prison, Robinson emerged seriously malnourished. He had been held in solitary (for his own safety), with his window shut (because Islamist prisoners were throwing excrement through it). And he’d lived on a grim diet of a can of tuna a day because he knew that if he ate any regular prison food it would be contaminated by Muslim inmates out to get him.

Hopefully he doesn’t get Epsteined.

And does anyone know where Assange is now? He’s basically been “disappeared.”

Thanks for posting.

I believe he gets out this weekend!

Remember: “fake news” is required to enact “fake freedom”.

The UK is “fake freedom” at this point. They contorted the concept of “contempt of court” and made up new reasons especially for Tommy, retroactively finding him guilty. It’s a complete sham. Between this ruling and their “hate speech” laws they can imprison you for anything.

His only crime was bringing attention to what they’re trying to hide...mass gang-raping of young English girls by Pakistani Muslim men. But of course, to say it makes you “racist”.

when children want to know why the USA has a Bill of Rights. This man’s plight is the perfect example to prove why.

It’s the mentality of the Middle Ages: vicious killers and other monsters receive far greater leniency than heretics.

If there is anybody I want to see move into America I’d have a hard time thinking of anyone better . Truly a political prisoner in a once great nation on its way to Islamic hell.

Britain is finished. Tommy Robinson and Katie Hopkins can do no more. They should seek asylum in America.

White Britons who support them should do likewise.

I think he has been placed in a maximum security prison to keep him apart from the moslims because the authorities are sh*ting themselves in case anything untoward happens to him while inside. Having been to several of his supporters rallies this year, I think if he were to be killed then anger would boil over - the authorities know this and are afraid what might kick off.

I hear you. It still makes me angry though. Sure, lower security prisons probably couldn’t protect him. The fact that somebody live-streaming on a public road gets arrested, with a GAG order on the arrest, then, for a non-violent “crime”, goes to a place with the worst criminals - along with those that want him dead. So the only thing to do is put him in solitary.

For anyone to believe that is JUSTICE is remarkable.

Immigration to the U.S. probably would not be easy or quick for him, because he has a criminal history in the U.K. and an immigration violation over here. I don’t recall the specifics offhand, but the details shouldn’t be hard to find with a search.

Must beg to disagree. This is America, not disarmed & spied upon Britain. The Orwellian nightmare is theirs, not ours.

Muzzies in America don’t have anywhere close to the numbers they need to assert Sharia control as in UK, Germany, or France. Yes, there are muzzies in the Deep State, chief among them John Brennan. And muzzies are assumed to vote as a bloc for Democrats, but their self-imposed isolation from “infidel” society limits their influence in government.

Gun grabbers are neither invincible nor immortal.

Ihlan Omar and Rashida Tlaib are IMO Godsends. They show the true ugly face of Islam and their fanaticism & hatred are turning off millions who would not otherwise be part of opposing the culture war against America.

Then there’s the subject of guns. Brits boast that they have no gun culture, which makes them morally superior to us “bloody Yanks”. But disarmed and helpless to muzzie attacks they are, and they are jailed for acts of self defense or merely criticizing Islam. Fascist lockdown in UK.

We have the 2nd Amendment which no doubt is under assault by the fascist Left. But there are hundreds of millions of firearms dispersed throughout the population and attempts by the Left to minimize the percentage of gun owners in society and then to act on that, will result in unintended civil war.

Red Flag laws are insidious and will be used to settle scores and punish Trump supporters. It is class warfare of the worst kind.

But many millions more gun owners than Harvard-Yale estimates are out there, armed and increasingly aware that our weapons & our right to possess them for use in defense of our lives are the only thing that gives the gun grabbers pause.

I often cite statistics in blue states NY, NJ, CA, WA, MA, and CT which show that laws requiring registration of so-called “assault weapons” have been disregarded in the 90th percentile in those states. None of those governors including the white-hot NRA-hater Andrew Cuomo have mobilized their state & local police to go out and start banging on doors.

Since there’s no Federal registration law & national licensing of owners (which Lyndon Johnson tried & failed to get in 1968), door to door is the only way. Yes, there’s talk of freezing bank accounts & seizing children but even those have to be a matter of law.

In other words, we’re not virtual slaves like the Brits. There’s a huge unknown out there in America consisting of millions of gun owners and skilled sportsmen, and hundreds of millions of firearms the whereabouts of which cannot be determined.

I’ll bet the Israelis would welcome Tommy in a heartbeat.

Tommy Robinson is a HERO for exposing Muslim rape gangs, in a country that suppresses speech in both the citizenry and the press to protect the vile Islamic culture that engenders the gangs — in a country in which one political party welcomed tens of thousands of barbarian savages to establish a beachhead for furthering their sick, twisted medieval ideology.

I look forward to Tommy being released from prison and coming here to refuge in America, the land of the free.
