UK anti-Islam activist 'Tommy Robinson' charged with harassment of two men

Prominent British anti-Islam activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon has been charged with harassment causing fear of violence to two men around the time of the nationwide riots last year, prosecutors said on Wednesday.

"We have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, 42, with harassment causing fear of violence against two men," a Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) spokesperson said in a statement.

Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson, is currently in prison over a separate contempt of court issue but is due to be released next week after winning a bid on Tuesday to trim the 18-month sentence.

The CPS said the alleged offences were committed between August 5 and 7 last year — when riots broke out at anti-immigration protests in towns and cities across Britain following the murder of three young girls in Southport, northwest England.

Yaxley-Lennon, who describes himself as a journalist who exposes state wrongdoing and counts U.S. billionaire Elon Musk among his supporters, was accused by some media and politicians of inflaming tensions at the time of the riots.

I guess it’s time for the UK to LOCK HIM UP again, until he learns not to speak out against the government.

But look at the bright side, the UK doesn’t have Gulags...yet.

The UK’s Deep State is sending a message...

Totally political prosecution because he revealed that the UK government allowed islamic rape gangs to groom UK girls.

The UK will be openly under sharia law in 9.5 years. It’s already subservient to sharia.

I predicted that the UK Deep State would prepare new charges against Tommy Robinson, now that’s he’s due to be released from prison. It was an easy prediction.

I just didn’t think it would be this soon.

I feel like this guy could be let out of prison, walk through the front gate and stand at the bus stop and just be arrested for loitering. Two years back in jail for you!

The UK is roughly 7% Muslim now. In 9.5 years, I’m guessing that number will rise to 11% or so. That might not sound like much, but it’s enough to make your prediction come true (unfortunately).

Dr. Peter Hammond did a study on how Muslims behave as a percentage of the population. The tipping point occurs once Muslims reach around 5% of a population.

At 5% they start to demand more and more, and threaten organized violence. The threats become real at around 10%. Then when a weak society starts to surrender.

The US needs to sanction the UK and its top people as hard as it does Russia and its top people.

What happens in the UK is often copied by the US.

The UK government says that there have only been isolated occurrences

It only happens where there are Muslim men

How convenient that they only charge him on the day he’s supposed to get out of prison.

To paraphrase Mark Steyn, the UK’s government is evil.

Really? American’s allowed many Jan 6th people to be locked up. One example. Let the FB get away with Waco, let them murder ranchers in Oregon. You let them kill kids at Ruby ridge. The list is long. I’d say there’s lots to fix before you worry about someone else.

Evidently “fear of violence” is worse than actual violence in the UK.

Reuters is trash. Storied history, now less than a ruin, it has become a mask for devils.

Tommy Robinson wasn’t even in the country at the time the riots happened. The UK legal system is no better than what one would expect to find in a banana republic.

What more can you expect from Perfidious Albion?

If you don’t know that name go ogle it and understand what it means.
