Mirror ^ | 28/7/20 | Matthew Dresch

The former EDL leader said he was looking into permanently relocating his family after an alleged arson attack on his wife's property a few weeks ago.

Mr Robinson is thought to be in Spain after he told his followers he would be unable to attend a protest in the UK if he returned due to a change in quarantine rules.

Tommy Robinson has done his level best and paid the price. Arm chair quarterbacks judging him disgust me. He has a family to protect as well. I hope he does whatever he feels he needs to do to keep them safe.

I agree as well. Kudos to him for seeking to keep his family safe.

The enemy doesn't understand or respect reason, tolerance or negotiation. Force -- applied quickly, persistently and with the objective of nothing less than total victory -- is the only thing they understand or respect ... the only thing.

So true. Tommy Robinson has done his best but the UK is commiting suicide by leadership and there is nothing to stop it. The Muslims are taking over.

I would guess no one who supports his politics disagrees with him leaving. Leftists however would mock him for this, heck they’d mock him if his family were killed. It’s what conquerers do.

Pres. Trump should offer asylum to Tommy Robinson and his family, and let the wokesters howl.

He might as well.

He has no future there, except in a graveyard.

If Maoist are trying to burn down his house one shouldn’t be surprised if he takes steps to avoid it happening again.

Sherwood Forest is occupied with a homeless encampment. That leaves crossing the channel or taking refuge in the Hebrides. Spain is warmer than the Hebrides, and France is full of bad poets.

There is a time for that.

He might be better served heading to Poland or some other Eastern European country.

Who ever thought we’d see this day?

Indeed he might, but maybe the language is harder to learn.

Most people who already saw it are long dead. Brexit comes too late to definitively save the UK. At most it allows for a running start. But Tommy is a good man. Pity to see him go. He might have been useful.

Maybe he would have stayed if he was allowed to defend himself with something more than a turkey baster.
