    Fair amount of outlandish claims there...

    outlandish is certainly one way to describe them

    spare us this manly bull****. Tommy ran up behind a fellow england supporter and punched them in the back of the head. He normally travels mobhanded. He has no interest in a fair fight with anybody.
    Saw that video, it looks to me the guy turned to confront Robinson and got smacked at the last second. But taking you at your word, the latest video is completely at odds with your statement, he single handedly confronted some feral kids who were attacking an elderly couple. Are you saying this was out of character for him, or something else?
    What would you say if a video of him ignoring this confrontation and walking past it surfaced?
    I get it that people don't like him, I'm not a supporter either.

    you're thinking of a different incident. the one you are thinking of happened when he was campaigning. The one i referred to occurred at an england game. He ran up behind him and sucker punched him. Tommy and his mates thought it was terribly amusing. Tommy is scum.

    Yes. The guy spat on him. Look it up rather than swallowing everything mainstream media tells you. The video is out there.

    He is a horrible little toad but was right in that incident. The fella deserved to be floored. Same as this incident. To be fair to him he has a pretty decent strike

    not hard to punch somebody in the back of the head after running up to them. Not something to be proud of.

    Didn't look to me like he caught him in tbe back of the head from what I remember. Maybe was a different incident. I don't want to be defending him anyway but sometimes even a little dose like him can be in the right

    if you dont recall him running up behind somebody and sucker punching him in the head then you are thinking of a different incident.

    nope, definitely no sucker punch here https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/tommy-robinson-punch-victim-told-16477309

    tommy is a thug but somehow that doesn't stop you supporting him.

    Yet SYL when interviewed never mentions being spat at. Whys that?

    He claims the man the man he punched to the ground  confronted him twice before he lashed out. 
    One man, in a green jacket, appears to turn around and shout something in Robinson's direction. Robinson then walks up behind the man and hits him with a right hook - sending him sprawling to the floor.

    Video here where SYL himself explains that the guy got lippy with him, no mention of spitting

    Anyone else notice that people who go on about the unreliability of MSM usually get their sources from Twitter or Facebook or some other proven liar source. Just link the source you are relying on instead of telling people to look it up.

    Actually ye are right, I'm not sure where I picked that up. What was the official reason he thumped him?

    Harassing him and his wife.

    and of course we should always take the word of a thug with convictions for assault and fraud. perfectly natural to sucker punch somebody walking away from you. though of course i am sure you will deny again that he sucker punched anybody.

    What I've read he sucker punched him, but the other guy 'harrassed' him by calling him a fascist. Doesn't justify suckerpunching him.

    But would you never believe the word of a convicted thug ever again? Can they not change? Are they incapable of acts of heroism?

    Because the guy said nasty things to him.

    We only have SYL's word for that, nowhere in the vid is a woman to be seen.

    Well did you see the interview from the old man afterwards? He was clearly happy that Tommy had intervened, in fact they had tried to reprimand the aggressive youths themselves, that's how incensed they were.

    No point arguing with the keyboard warriors on here, you know they are the types who wouldn't intervene when seeing an old couple or a child being abused! They went back into there shells for a week or two after the cops charged the thugs as they got highly embarressed, but have decided to re-appear on here. But they won't live that. Down for a while. :)
