    A brilliant opportunity for far right wankers to feel oppressed. Fuck them and everything they stand for. I don't for a moment believe that this dickhead cares about child abuse, he cares about race.

    What race?
    Race as an issue.

    We have an Asian grooming gang epidemic in the U.K. and it gets v little coverage - that is not bullshit or a brexiteers opinion its a fact. Tommy is a little too radical for me and people do interpret the things he says a little too literally but I don’t think what he done was that bad and good on him for broadcasting it

    I think it does get coverage.

    I think people like Yaxley-Lennon just want to pretend it doesn't to feed their own desire for attention.
    Are any of those links for this specific trial?

    Also proof that there is a serious problem especially in the north of the country, aren’t 85% of child grooming attacks carried out by Asian males?.
    I highly doubt that. Can you link to any reliable sources with facts that show this? More likely to be 85% of current suspects in the public eye are Asian males.

    And that’s from the independent, as opposed to the sun, daily mail ( right wing newspapers LOL )

    These type of paedophilic rings tend to be Asian, what I am not saying is 85% of all peaophiles in the U.K. are Asian.

    Glad you edited that... It does seem to be a very particular issue it seems to Pakistani men. There was another case recently involving a mother being imprisoned for sending her daughter to Pakistan to marry a much older relative. This is a cultural thing that is utter anathema to most in this country, and has to be be dealt with - unlike it was by the police in Rochdale. Bit please, don't let that bellend "Tommy Robinson" be the voice against it.

    I should add that child brides are an issue in many places other than Pakistan (Islam is a common if not overreaching theme it seems), and there were many other issues at play regarding the grooming gangs.

    Can't get any clearer than that. Indeed he was lucky he didn't get the maximum sentence.

    Wouldn't surprise me if it was a deliberate attempt so as to be seen as a 'martyr'.

    Yes, indeed. Many would be shocked to know that 200,000 children, some as young as ten, were married in one particular country in the last 15 years. Step forward the US of A and take a bow. https://independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/200000-children-married-us-15-years-child-marriage-child-brides-new-jersey-chris-christie-a7830266.html

    Bad, but not quite as bad as the headline would have you believe.

    Eight-seven per cent of the minors who married across the country between 2000 and 2015 were girls, with the majority either 16 or 17.

    You need to listen to what he is saying and doing without prejudice. I know it's trendy and politically correct to hammer him however he is speaking and being listened to. The real danger is people dismiss it what he is saying as racist, because it isn't and he isn't a racist. That is lazy. Also it brings no parity to any debate or addresses any points he is raising, everyone rightly was disgusted when they watched the BBC programme about Rotherham and rightly so. Now that's faded from memory why are the media not attending the courts where the accused are standing trial and giving us updates of the days events? Why are we not as a nation saying treating kids this way is unacceptable?

    I genuinely don't see how a man doing this is vilified.

    Because he's so blatantly motivated by his hatred of Islam... Crikey I'm almost violently atheist. I am agaisnt the death penalty but anyone who touched my girls I'd kill personally... And would encourage others to do the same... However, he's a fucking prick.

    What's barely mentioned is the victims, the most vulnerable in society. Same victims that the Jimmy savills and Cyril Smith's of this world go for.

    I saw the documentary about Robinson, he's clearly intelligent and knowledgeable, but can't seem to tackle the actual issues.

    Why do we when his entire behaviour is based on his own prejudices? If he cares so strongly about child sexual exploitation then where have his protests been towards the church? Towards mp's? Towards innumerable paedophile problems involving non Asians/Muslims over the years? And as already pointed out, towards his own edl mates not too long ago?

    Yes we are saying treating kids this way is unacceptable and have been as long as I can remember. Can't see how you've missed that other than for effect.

    Because there are reporting restrictions on the trial(s) concerned, which other media organisations are abiding by. Once verdicts and possibly sentencing on that case and any associated cases are in, THEN they can report on it, but not before. His attempts at pursuing his own personal agenda are putting the prosecutions at risk, and might mean that the victims don't get justice cos they can't face the ordeal of having to testify again at a retrial. He was explicitly warned by the judge when his suspended sentence was handed down NOT to pull that kind of stunt again, so he's either an idiot or trying to make himself some kind of free speech martyr, when in reality he's just being a twat.

    This is what he judge said when TR illegally filmed inside a court during proceedings.
    "This is not about free speech, not about the freedom of the press, nor about legitimate journalism, and not about political correctness. It is about justice and ensuring that a trial can be carried out justly and fairly, it's about being innocent until proven guilty. It is about preserving the integrity of the jury to continue without people being intimidated or being affected by irresponsible and inaccurate ‘reporting’, if that’s what it was".

    She gave him a suspended sentence. He later attempted to film outside Leeds court, in breach of the terms of his suspension.

    Having said that the prison has a legal duty of care to protect him from attack whilst in prison, just like they do towards other potential targets, without prejudice as to whether or not they are seen to "deserve" it.

    Leaving TR aside, why are most of these trials kept quiet and why could they be jeopardised by reporters outside the courts? I thought that usually the police want as much publicity as possible, just in case there are more victims. You only have to look at other high profile cases like Rolph Harris, Max Clifford and even Cliff Richard, where the BBC went out their way and broke the rules to cover and publicise the investigation (helicopter filming the police going in and reporters, reporting "live" from his doorstep), even though there was no case brought in the end.

    The kids might end up in more danger now - if his actions do lead to a mistrial then the people involved could end up walking free.

    Looking at the comments of the judge that just convicted him, he wasn't actually "attending the courts where the accused are standing trial and giving us updates of the days events" he was videoing himself screaming "Muslim rapists" etc at the accused (before they've been convicted), presumably to the delight of the morons that look up to him.

    I genuinely don't see why you wouldn't vilify a man repeatedly doing this.

    We have an Asian grooming gang epidemic in the U.K. and it gets v little coverage - that is not bullshit or a brexiteers opinion its a fact. Tommy is a little too radical for me and people do interpret the things he says a little too literally but I don’t think what he done was that bad and good on him for broadcasting it

    I think it does get coverage.

    You did not mention this specific trial though. You wrote: " We have an Asian grooming gang epidemic in the U.K. and it gets v little coverage - that is not bullshit or a brexiteers opinion its a fact".

    I proved your "fact" was, in fact, wrong, by showing you that it does get coverage.

    The problem is that like many people on other social media platforms, too many people get their "facts" from right wing websites and facebook pages. The OP's link being a prime example, where the right winger spouting off "forgot" to mention the suspended sentence. As with certain other threads, people change tack suddenly after being proved wrong. Your credibility is improved by recognising when you have been given wrong information, not diminished.

    Others have explained why the current trial has restrictions placed on it. I have had my opinion changed after reading what has been written. I was wrong because I had not looked at the information properly.

    You are correct that there is undoubtedly a serious problem, and the large majority of groups attacking vulnerable youngsters are of Asian (mainly Pakistani, in fact) origin. This link makes interesting reading, and if Yaxley-Lennon had been outside one of the trials of Type 2 abusers, I might believe that he could have a motivation beyond hatred of Islam and Asians.

    Because he IS being racist. As others have said he's only turned up at non-White trials and he has done no ''reporting" just hung around like a bad smell shouting racial insults.

    Maybe more should be done to raise awareness but not like that and not by him.
