.... in London for a separate pro-Donald Trump event, but after that event many of the Trump supporters made their way down to Whitehall where another crowd was forming for a "Free Tommy Robinson" rally.
The event was emceed by Raheem Kassam of "Breitbart" in London, who has been a close associate of "Mr. Brexit" Nigel Farage.
An early speaker was leader Gerard Batten of the United Kingdom Independence Party, the leading party of Brexit buoyed by this week's rising polls numbers in the midst of the controversy over Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit sellout.
Batten spoke about an arrest of a protestor at a May "Free Speech" rally in London being held without charge, a British citizen with a "European Arrest Warrant" on him on cooked up charges.
Then Batten moved onto the matter of Tommy Robinson and his arrest asking questions:
"Was he really in contempt of court? Did he really breach the terms of his suspended sentence and is 13 months fair and proportionate sentence for his offence if indeed he was guilty?"
He went on to say:
"But in my view Tommy Robinson has been in prison much more for who he is and what he says rather than what he is supposed to have done.....he has now become a symbol of the opposition to so much that we know is rotten in our society...a real criminal is someone who preys upon the weak and defenseless.
Tommy Robinson is somebody who has chosen to defend the weak and the helpless...the suffragettes broke the law...Mahatma Gandhi broke the law, he was arrested and convicted 13 times...Robin Hood broke the law...who's side would you rather be on, Robin Hood or the Sheriff of Nottingham?...Who's side do you want to be on now, Tommmy Robinson or the political establishment?..."....

You cannot imagine how close that idiot came to death by firing squad. Ill bet security is laughing about it now— I assure you.
Some politicians would do anything to silence opposition to The Invasion of The West by hordes of homicidal savages.
Political prisoner.
That photo is yet another example proving that we have the most beautiful women our side!
I find myself not caring about this guy.
Free Tommy Robinson.
UK and USA, people are asleep. Anyone saying things to wake them up, it just annoys them.
Tommy is a hero. Hero’s aren’t asleep during times like these.
This man, probably among others, has been jailed by the British Government for peaceful protest and (maybe) civil disobedience. But it gets no media coverage here.
Yeah, free speech is so passé.
I do and Congressman Gosar does since he spoke at the rally.
After seeing our own government treat the Oregon and Bunkerville protestors, along with the Hammonds the way they did (Thank God Trump pardoned them this week as in the Hammonds) I learned to care whenever anyone is railroaded in a kangaroo court often without proper legal representation like Tommy Robinson was on May 25th in Leeds.
I agree - he broke the law. Just like the old man in England who shot at the intruders with his shotgun - he broke the law too. But hey - at least we have healthcare that is similar to England now. And someday we can have sensible gun laws and speech laws like they have too.
