Orwell’s Nightmare: Articles About Tommy Robinson’s Arrest Rapidly Scrubbed From the Internet
The Gateway Pundit ^ | May 25, 2018 | Cassandra Fairbanks

Articles about the arrest and subsequent imprisonment of independent journalist and activist Tommy Robinson are being rapidly scrubbed from the internet after the British government put restrictions in place banning any reporting on the matter.

Robinson, 35, was arrested on Friday for suspicion of ‘breaching the peace’ while livestreaming to report on the trial of a child grooming gang and will now have to serve a prior 13 month suspended sentence for a similar offense.

Articles from the Daily Record, Birmingham Live, The Mirror, RT and even Breitbart News were all taken offline in the hours following his detention.

I won’t be safe here long, soon the FBI will pick you and prosecute you for something even if they have to make it up if you hold a political position that they agree with.

Hate to burst your bubble, but it is already happening here. The IRS targeting is only the top of the iceberg. Read up on Howard Root and many others being subjected to the strong-arm tactics of Obama's DOJ and FBI in the last 8 years.

To PDJT, please call their PM and ask for him and his family to be immediately transferred to the USA, otherwise you’ll change the deal.

If he’s murdered in jail they’ll see a “breaching of the peace” alright.

Heaven forbid if the British people find out their government allowed Islamic immigrants to groom their children as sex slaves. Cannot have that. Obviously, only people with something to hide actively promote censorship.

There is a UK-wide gagging order and media outlets have been forced to delete their articles.

This is tyranny.

D@mn Straight!

The word is that they did post it and were forced to take it down. The link to their story goes to a blank page. And the tweet I saw that had this link no longer seems to exist.

Yep. Down the rabbit hole. Let the games begin.

Worse than the Soviet Union or communist China.

This was what HRC would have brought us to right here, had she been elected.

Now, these powerful elites are really angry and annoyed that in their view, President Trump made them delay their plans for 4 years.

England is no longer a free country. The gangs of muslim thugs are afforded protection on the level of that royal family and no one dare speak ill of it.
