balanced enough reporting i taught. 

Considering it was the BBC it wasn't quite the hatchet job I expected however the usual tactics were at play they picked the people they interviewed to look clueless and that witch in studio trying everything to trip batten up but he did well and spun it straight back at her , I like him ....fair play to the Dutch lad for telling them to stick it :laugh: I'm sure there was better structured interviews that have ended up on the editing room floor though.

Tommy Robinson is not far right, but as far as i am concerned he's not far wrong either.

You need 4 million to make change they are trying to stifle the movement. ...violence will push lesser people straight back  into the hand of labour/conservative ....disarm your enemies with a smile I

Tommy Robinson has won his appeal against his conviction for contempt of court offences and is set to be released on bail.

The far-right activist was jailed for 13 months in May after broadcasting a Facebook Live outside Leeds Crown Court regarding an ongoing criminal trial.

But he will soon be released from prison after judges found his conviction was 'flawed' and rushed.

The 35-year-old will be released on bail and there will be a re-hearing on the charges after the conviction was quashed today.

The appeal that his team won is against his denial of due process and the speed at which he was convicted. It will now go back to court before a fresh judge.

  • He has admitted contempt of court.
  • He has admitted he was in breach of reporting restrictions.

As this is has been admitted in court he's at serious risk of being re-imprisoned and possibly for longer depending on the finding of the new judge. The contempt conviction wasn't unsound (he has repeatedly admitted guilt in court) it was the speed at which he was convicted as the appeal believed he was denied due process.

TR's now free on bail to prepare for his upcoming legal challenge.

I don't think there's a hope in hell he will be re-convicted, they knew he was going to be released on his appeal day it was just a saving face exercise to keep him in until now.

He's served four months (?) and it'll depend on the new judge's interpretation of the evidence, I suppose. He will have to go through it again but he'll get a fairer hearing. The only stumbling block I can see is that he's freely admitted contempt and breaching reporting restrictions and he's still on a suspended sentence from his previous conviction for the same crime.

This is essentially a do-over and it will depend on the new judge as to whether four months served is sufficient penance for what he did. It could theoretically be a longer sentence depending on how that judge rules.

I wouldn't crack the champagne just yet...

      Saturday 27th an armed man attempted entry to a synagogue outside of San Diego, California. According to eyewitnesses he was armed with an "AR style assault rifle" and 3 people have been injured and one has been confirmed dead.
      AR15's are illegal in California. The shooter was engaged by the synagogue's armed security which in this case was an off duty border patrol agent. The shooter fled the scene and gave himself up to LE.
      The narrative of this story began as one of gun control but has quickly shifted to that of a hate crime now that more details have come to light. The article is from CNN but pretty factual with what's known at this time. The shooter has broken numerous laws and the bad guy with the gun was stopped by a good guy with a gun.

      It's official. American socialist icon Bernie Sanders has officially declared that he's running for commander in chief in 2020. He's raised around $5.9 million from more than 220,000 donors in the first 24 hours, which has trumped even the Donald at this point. Many of those donors are set up for recurring donations that are set to net $600,000 a month.
      Last time around there were allegations of hamstringing as despite Bernie's popularity with the American electorate as he conceded to Hillary Clinton despiting winning many of the primaries by a large margin. Looking at Hillary's disasterous performance in 2016 it'll be interesting to see whether Sanders remains an independent candidate or goes full Democrat as the group whittles itself down to a frontrunner.

      Quite hard to watch 
      I don’t think I could have sailed away or drove off after watching this without intervening in a lethal way

      Hello,
       
      I am a university student from Plymouth and I am conducting a research project with the aim of better understanding attitudes towards lynx in the UK, now that a reintroduction is seemingly ever more.
       
      I believe that the attitudes of deer stalkers and hunters are important and will provide a valuable contribution to the study. I also believe that it is important that your views are represented as you are a stakeholder group who may be affected by future reintroduction.
       
      If you could take the time to complete my survey I would be extremely grateful, it should take around 5 minutes. The data collected will be treated with the strictest of confidence.

      Thank you
