Of course there are different standards. He is being used as an example to silence any dissent and to create a narrative i.e. whites are just racist idiots.Tuan_Jim wrote: ↑09 Jun 2018, 10:31Is it that simple?danconnollyeire wrote: ↑09 Jun 2018, 08:31Eh?

The state was happy to look the other way for decades as grooming gangs raped girls, many of them underage, on an industrial scale.
But Tommy Robinson, livestreaming outside Leeds Crown Court--that the state cannot abide.
Five minutes to try, convict and sentence.
How many potential spree killers are on the UK terrorist watch list again? 25,000. Where are they?
On the street.
Different standards are being applied here. The reasons why are not simple.
I would of agreed with that statement maybe years ago .but i don't agreed with British law anymore . the people of this country have voted brexit nothing has happened .so i dont belive that is why he is in jail.

Tommy Robinson was found guilty by a jury.
He did not get found guilty by a jury .i don't know enough to talk about it .but that is not true. And if any one has been to court before would all agree you do not want judge looking and only deciding your further.

Anthony Small wasn't.
We have trial by jury and it's a great system. Do you think we should let you dish out sentences from your own prejudices via an internet forum and without having a clue about the facts of the case ?
I don't.
And horse.. "The West is evil" ?!
Oh please.
It's certainly done some evil things - but let's not pretend there is any sort of moral equivalence between our government and ISIS and the murderers it inspires. The fact that Small got a fair trial - that fact alone puts this country on a different ethical planet to any Islamofascist movement.

Why contempt of court matters?
By Dominic Casciani, BBC home affairs correspondent
Contempt of court is the crime of ignoring the court and its constitutional role in making sure that justice is done.
Robinson was convicted of contempt for interfering with a trial in Canterbury.
His attempts to film defendants on that occasion could, the judge said, have "prejudiced" the jury, leading to an unfair verdict - and he was warned he'd go to jail if he did anything remotely similar again.
Why couldn't we initially report Robinson's arrest and jailing? Reporting restrictions are a long-standing part of the British legal system. In this case, the judge ordered a temporary media black-out because he feared reporting Robinson's conviction could influence the jury in the very case Robinson was targeting.
This is not some new form of censorship directed at Robinson. These are rules that apply to us all, equally. If he is unsure about that, he's now got time on his hands to read a copy of Essential Law for Journalists.
Robinson was already subject to a suspended sentence for a contempt charge related to a separate case in Canterbury.
The judge had warned him then he should expect to go to prison if he committed further offences.
Robinson was given 10 months in jail for contempt of court, and a further three months for breaching the previous suspended sentence.
Judge Geoffrey Marson QC initially imposed restrictions for fear that reporting his arrest would prejudice an ongoing trial.
What are you talking about why would a jury have to agree with the courts bail conditions. The court set them .there not up for decision. I've been around the justice system to know.

I'm not defending our behaviour. We, France, the USA - we've all done some very wicked things AND we'll probably do more in the future. Good for you pointing out our/their many moral failings.

You seem to be suggesting that Tommy Robinson was somehow "thrown in to jail" like he was 'disappeared' in to a van in some Fascist banana republic, or a knock on the door in the night like in the old Commie states.
He got what he deserved after due legal process - and if you're claiming he didn't then it's you that is talking nonsense.

He wasn’t arrest or convicted by the state. The state doesn’t have the powers to send someone to prison. Judicial courts do. Only conspiracy theorists would think the state send people to prison.
