Zia Smith you fucking weirdo
@Zia Smith I'm more interested in finding your address. I'm hoping to meet you very soon...
@Ian Murray LOL!! You assume much young Jedi. You know what happens when we A.S.S. U. M.E. don't you? Regardless, male or female, I can't help but think it to be a lively chat...
@Ian Murray Try me.
@Ian Murray Besides. Aren't you a believer in women's equality? Sexist neanderthal...
How about the fact that the sentence that sent tommy to prison, has been ruled illegal.... did you report this channel 4 ?
No it hasn’t.
mikael englund lol the only thing fake is Tommy Robinson’s name.
Tommy Was And IS!! Highlighting a Very serious and Threatening Problem to The UK and The WORLD!!! Allan's SNACK BAR!!!! FREE TOMMY NOW!
@Will Derby No that's a lie.
@Will Derby Just because media parrot the same thing doesn't mean it's the truth. The judges involved in that part of the "case" say otherwise.
A court judge said there would have been no way he could have affected the trial seeing as it had concluded at an earlier date.
The muslims he spoke to respectfully outside court had already been convicted. He couldn't have possibly unhinged any proceedings...
Just to correct. The verdict had already been reached, but the defendants or Tommy didn't know that as they were arriving that day to hear the verdict.
@SamS If you look at the judgement that wasn't really the angle they charged Tommy on. It wasn't about releasing restricted information by reporting, as he didn't do that. It was by being there reporting 'in general' - but the main contempt was intimidating the defendants and causing them anxiety.
You might hear this linked trial thing in the media a lot, but it didn't play a major factor, as the verdict had been arrived at, and he didn't release any information. The trials went ahead as planned. Many times main stream media has released information that blatantly broke the restrictions and actually collapsed the trial, at huge expense and distress, such as in the Milly Dowler case. Only fines we issued for that which set a precedent. If they wanted Tommy locked up they had to take the intimidation route.
I studied the case for a university project, that's why I know the details. I'm neutral, and I'd say that this was extremely rough justice for Tommy. And he has no chance of appeal as it was the first ruling by a new High Court judge. No chance her peers will overrule that decision. They had to find him guilty or Tommy would be able to sue the state for wrongful imprisonment, which the couldn't face... So he was found guilty before this re-trial started. It's not a good moment in our rich legal history.
A breath of intelectual fresh air ....good comment ... what you say is fact what C4 say is wrong as it omits context. Why is it far right to object to organised child rape by a clearly defined group of adherents to a Middle Eastern Faith?
GREAT COMMENT LORRAINE
Makes no difference. The reporting ban ends when the court says, not Alias Tommy Robinson.
Nobody should ever be jailed for standing on a sidewalk in front of a courthouse unless the government is tyrannical.
That is objectively not what he was arrested for
Big Pun No. He was arrested for endangering the trial of a group of rapists by breaching a judicialy imposed Reporting restriction, making it harder for them to be convicted for the disgusting crimes they committed
He was previously given a warning for doing the exact same thing, he broke that warning and pleaded guilty for contempt of court
He was NOT "standing on a sidewalk in front of a courthouse".
He harassed people entering the court and livestreamed it, which is Contempt of Court!
+Tom Langford
He wasn't endangering anything, they had already been sentenced.
You don't arrest people for reporting on that unless you really hate basic human rights
Tetemovies4 They hadn't been sentenced.
But didn't Tommy just talk about details that were already out in the public domain due to the national press?
He did nothing more, nothing less.
Yes.

They were trying to slience him!
And now it’s going to happen again
Very underrated film
This comment hasn't aged well. The retrial showed that Tommy WAS rightfully imprisoned.
Nope. He got out on appeal under a technicality, pending a retrial. Retrial happened, still guilty. Back to chokey he goes! 👍
Looked a bit uncomfortable reporting that mate. Is it because you missed most of the story out to keep your job?
Stuntman Mike...Words Well Spoken My Friend...Words Well Spoken.
Contempt of court is usually settled with a fine , not solitary confinement. End of story.
Christian Dowell It was the second time he had done it. Since he was under suspended sentence it was inevitable he would be jailed. As was explained in the film.
@@iangascoigne8231 so why was he released early!
@@del2665 And you are a liar!
ruth bashford He was originally released on appeal on a technicality because it was deemed that the Judge hadn’t followed the correct procedure. Then it went back to court and he was sent back to prison to serve his original sentence as he should. If he’d done this after the time period of the suspension had expired he may not have gone to prison at all. I don’t even know if he’s still in prison if he has been released early it will be because of good behaviour. Not because of some imagined miscarriage of justice. If prisoners behave unless it’s a serious crime it’s rare for them to serve more than half their sentence. As I said in my original comment, if you watch the film it’s all explained. But since you obviously worship at the alter of St Stephen Yaxley-Lennon you won’t believe it.
@@del2665, this is a slander. Yes, he broke the law (nothing really serious) but in these days it is almost a badge of honor since so many criminals (slander is a criminal offence) walk around free and write nonsense on You Tube..
Instead of protecting him because he's telling the truth, they lock him up, twisted world

fucking OOPS
At 6:33 the journalist claims that "there was never a media blackout on Robinson's conviction, in fact it took a real journalist to fight for the restrictions on Robinson's case to be lifted"
Isn't this statement self-contradictory? If there was no blackout why would anyone need to fight for the restrictions to be lifted?
Are you gullible? or just one of the dumb down masses?

@@stoufer2000mi5Agent. Hes not even getting arrested. Like actors. Fools believe anything.
He received a sentence for "commiting journalism".
That's a tshirt, babes. That's not what actually happened.
CONTEMPT..... OF..... COURT....
There was a court order not to report prejudicially on an ongoing court case and he reported prejudicially on an ongoing court case... he confronted the accused (no thanks to Tommy Robinson they have now been found guilty) and called them child rapists on a live facebook feed. This has now been judged to be true by a court of law, but at that time was prejudicial!
That is CONTEMPT OF COURT!
Tommy's actions could have easily led to a conviction of these paedophiles being overturned.
@@alexc1105 He asked them "how did they feel about the verdict". The Convicted rapists going in to face sentencing answered back that they would rape and kill his mother.
The case had ENDED
He was sentenced to 13 months without having access to his own lawyer and without a jury.
It was a Contempt of Court hearing where he pleaded guilty. No trial required.
He had a barrister of 16 years experience in defending serious crimes such as rape and murder.
So someone can be sentenced to 13 months in prison without a trial if the offence relates to Contempt of Court? I highly doubt that is true.
If they pleaded guilty at the hearing, which he did, then yes. There is no need for a trial, pretty obvious really.
Well if someone pleads guilty then a trial is still required.
Nope, not at a Contempt of Court hearing.
This is not me taking position on anything, just asking questions:
1. The media, BBC among them, had already reported on the crimes and named all the defendants, despite the reporting restrictions
2. There are several other recordings of the proceedings outside this court on the very same trial at earlier stages far, far more aggressive where defendants are named, shown pictures of, and where protestors are screaming in anger at them as they walk in. And the police is present. Why is this okay, while Robinson's rather mundane footage is problematic?
3. Is it the media's responsibility to prevent the jury from being prejudiced when the cost is a limit on free speech (yes, restrictions on reporting is a limitation on free speech) - this would never happen in the US. Following this logic, it would be impossible to have *any* trial with prominent figures. It would be impossible to have had OJ's trial.
4. isn't it problematic that someone can be arrested and have the media being prevented by government to report on it?
5. How often are people given a 10 month sentence on contempt (not counting the 3 months from the previous sentence)?
TrailersFromHell the trail was already concluded. The rapists were already found guilty and were turning up for sentencing.
Stuart Oswald nope, the case was and still is active.
Number 4 is my biggest concern, they jailed him in secret. Why but more importantly how? Who gives these powers to the judges, I think laws need to change.
Danny Brook nope. The video explains this
you do understand Tommy was very biasedly reporting on it? cool, so this is the problem he is publicly reporting on a court trial with an obvious bias that can influence the jury and if it seems that that the jury have been influenced by material outside of the evidence given to them the defendants can claim that they have been given an unfair trial because it is outside information not directly pertaining to evidence provided in the case. Tommy has previously been done for contempt of court he knows how it works. this law has been the case for years and years without much slipery slope it maintains that every case is fair and the jury is impartial while the case is ongoing. he plead guilty
Tommy is a legend!

Une légende vivante
Beaucoup d'entre nous en France aimons sont travail
Malheureusement il très compliqué de trouver ces vidéos traduit en français pour que je puisse les partager 😕
I'm not a fan of the guy but this is disgusting... How can the media be allowed to do exactly what he did ?
Nothing Tommy said prejudiced the trial
When adult males of any colour or religion rape a child, it should be on the front page of every newspaper everywhere. Cliff Richard was all over the press and he didn't even go to court. Tommy Robinson is not the issue here for me. The protection of child rapists (of whatever religion or colour) disgusts me. The council and police in Rotherham and Rochdale covered up what was going on for 40 years and yet still nobody is allowed to talk about it. D-notices are served to not prejudice the case? Why? I don't even like Tommy Robinson, but why are we not protecting our children. The press have totally missed the boat on this one. Tommy Robinson isn't the issue here. The silence of our press and total failure to protect our children is. The protests won't end on this one in my opinion and the UK media are as much to blame as TR himself. The left are screaming Nazi and racist, the right are screaming martyr and champion of freedom of speech....Nobody is talking even 1% enough about the fact that children are being repeatedly raped....Keyboard warriors all....conscience nobody.
yeah it's not like the BBC was heavily criticised for that or anything, nah
I only put Rotherham and Rochdale in as examples and I never mentioned race or ethnicity, which doesn't interest me at all. You say you and Tommy as if we are one and the same? Personally, I don't see colour or religion, only good or bad and there are plenty of both in all societies. I only care that the press are avoiding issues that people really care about, leaving more extreme people to be the voice of said issues. I'm not on anyone's side. I only care that children are in danger and not enough is being done to highlight the fact, or to protect them.
Tommy was sent to prison for using words
True words
God bless you Tommy Robison He's standing up for his Country the Sovereignty of his country and it's Citizens ! 💜💜💜💜💜💜

Absolutely right.
He also make Christian look bad with his islamophobic act
Yeah.....good man
Fake news
Take your meds.
Go check their sources
Phuck Geues He was arrested at Leeds crown court for “contempt of court” because there were reporting restrictions on the case, the cross eyed spastic mentions only high profile trials have “reporting restrictions” how is this a high profile case, these types of trials happen on a regular basis it’s nothing new so I ask again how is it high profile? It looks to me that originally there were no reporting restrictions as the trial was happening in the first place not until the trial ended that they would put restriction on just to arrest Tommy Robinson
A one sided story of course, but what do you expect from Channel 4. No fair debate of course, just Channel 4 and their stooges. The same old same old!
That's why it's called fake news my friend.
It had nothing to do with freedom of speech:
watch?time_continue=366&v=jys7jbVccrU
Does your head in the way they are struggling to tell it as they say it is by law and trying to make it look like the law itself isnt flawed in any way
Same with right wing outlets, no debates same old same old
Yes it's very strange how much they hate the guy feels like we live in Russia the way they try to shut him up and lock him away
I thought the grooming gang had already been found guilty and were there that day to be sentenced?
Yes, so did I. Therefore it wasnt contempt of court
Yes they had ,So this guy is fake news
Sentencing is still part of the trial, dipshit.
Exactly disgusting how he’s been treated , shame they don’t treat the scum bag pedos the same way
@@OneThousand98 whether sentencing is part of the trial or not tommy cant jeopardize the verdict when its already been giving, dipshit.
Perhaps the word 'News' should be removed from 'Channel 4 News'?
Replace the word News with Brainwashing for weak minded betas
shameful propaganda
Looking at the comments, I would say to CH 4 reporters that they deserve the kinds of comments they get. You have lost on the world stage.
because it was easier to put one man in jail rather than the hundreds he is accusing of all the terrible stuff they have done
20 years to bring pedephile gang rapists and 20 minutes to sentence a man who makes a facebook video outside a court about them, you really think that people will be ok with that? Tommy is a real hero, support from France!
Now for your next video: Tommy Robinson has been released from prison & this is why.
They never made that video, can't think why!
Stephen is now back on trial and there is every chance that he will be back in prison in no time. He nearly jeopardized the trial and nearly brought about the release of the paedophiles, which is why I find it ironic that you lot are supporting him. Do you also want to see the paedophiles released?
@@TheTruth-uy4kp Thats just not true. He was filming outside the court case and live-streaming it openly breaking the law which says that judges, defendants and witnesses cannot be filmed within certain parameters of the court.
The uproar would have been big, but it would have only been down to Stephen himself. For the defendants would have argued that everything was biased against them and that they didn't get a fair trial. Everything would have been thrown out, the victims wouldn't have seen justice served with orders of a new trial at the expense of taxpayers, the victims and the public in general. As part of fair trials, we don't allow broadcasting of certain cases so as to not bias the jury. Forensics do't matter so long as it looks like the jury is being biased.
Stephen didn't "expose" anything. He merely broke the law. The people who exposed it were the victims and the Lawyers who worked tirelessly to see that this was put to a stop. This also includes the judge who imprisoned Stephen.
I seriously suggest you watch this video. It's obvious that you far right people just don't know how the law works. Also, you do know that the ring leader in this case was a Sikh right?
He did exactly what all the mainstream reporters have done to him outside his court case with reporting restrictions, mainstream news was daily comentating online when they shoudlnt trying to demonise tommy, tommy had cameras in his face as he left his court case whilst being asked about the case, with reporting restrictions, will itv reporters get solitary confinement?.. No..anyone exposing mass rape gangs is a hero, sort ur fukin head out lol
Far right ahahaha. This guy must work for bbc
Well, now you've have time to look back at what you presented here, which you framed as being a well research and unbiased look at the case. You know see what you did? a) you failed to look at what paragraphs of law related to what information can reporting be restricted on... The law clearly states that if it's in the public domain then it can't be restricted... Tommy knew this as he had legal advice to avoid contempt, so he only talked about things already in the media. You could have just watched the livestream. b) You didn't investigate the actual case, Tommy didn't plead guilty, he wasn't given a chance to enter any plea, and it's highly unusual to be arrested and sentenced to prison within 5 hours! Everyone knows that! Especially for reporting, which no one has gone to prison for since WW2! Surely you can look back at this now and see what you did? The case was thrown out on appeal and the prosecution described as a 'fundamentally flawed process' by that judge. c) then you turn this into freedom of speech issue, which isn't what I see anyone doing, it's about law. Tommy knew the law, and followed it. He says in the livestream several times that he understands why they couldn't try 29 defendants at once. He got, we get it. Don't act like his supporters are so stupid that we think it's just not being allowed to say what you want...
Then we have the matter of the retrial... where the contempt came down to intimidating the defendants, not the actual reporting at all. And they took a line clearly out of context to use. Just watch the livestream, Tommy didn't threaten anyone! We have eyes and ears! If you don't see how bad a piece this was now, well, maybe there's no hope. But this will be looked back on as disinformation, poorly researched, but well prejudiced and biased.
Not looking good for channel 4 news in the comment section is it. 😂😂😂
Not one bit 😂
Cuz normal people don’t care, and it’s only steven’s supporters here, haha
So how come 7 other reporters live streaming outside the court and filming the defendants walking into it were not arrested too ?
They were not prejudicial, and remained impartial!
GalacticWoman One reporter (an independent sihk man who's report is on youtube) actually called them "rapists"... didn't even use the word alleged which Tommy did. They also recorded during the trial and not after summary, again unlike Tommy who filmed on verdict day so could not have influenced that outcome.
Fact of the matter is Tommy has a huge audience in comparison to the others so needs shutting up according to the knobs of society.
Now that this has been highlighted though, the sihk reporters video has been seen over 30.000 times. Still no arrest. So all the Tommy haters saying he got what he deserves..... I call bullshit!! He's been treated unfairly and victimised otherwise others would have been arrested. FACTS... VERIFIABLE FACTS TOO.
GalacticWoman ruclips.net/video/PsMWABPp7eU/видео.html
The people arguing they were not being prejudiced I don't think have looked at the evidence or the other streamers, they have made there mind up and just like the media wants will stick to there opinion even if better information arises to prove them wrong, pointless exercise mate even showing the guys name and link to his video won't be enough to change there mind. He was arrested for breach of the peace anyway not contempt of court as the jury had already made there decision so this video is misleading and incorrect, his appointed solicitor wanted him to plead guilty as believed this would likely lead to only a fine.
Noneofurbusiness ! How is it "predjucicial" (prejudicial*) when there is irrefutable evidence that there is a disproportionate amount of Muslims in rape grooming gangs? And also, irrefutable evidence that the state and the police were complicit in covering up this fact. That's not prejudice, that's POSTjudice.
I don't trust any of this.
I don’t trust a guy who harasses people outside of mosques
Louis Young Don't!
Why not? Cus it doesn’t fit with what you want to believe?
I worked in the courts a long time ago and we had many people jailed for contemt of court, but never did I see or hear anyone getting so long for said offence.
Having seen this vid a year later to hear yesterdays verdict. It is now more clearer than ever that there was no contempt of court as there weren't even any reporting restrictions - none at all! Nor was there any disruption of trials as they were actually all done before Tommy started reporting and even so the information was already in the public domain before Tommy as well. Furthermore to the anxiety accusations, well there were no such behaviours from Tommy to cause such a thing let alone it being after the trial to make sense of things (not!) Neither was he on any court property as he was walking along a public footpath whilst doing what he was doing as a reporter. Case concluded!
What a disgraceful propaganda piece! It tries to suggest impartiality but intentionally ignores key aspects: while the jailing of Tommy Robinson *could* be seen as in line with a harsh interpretation of contempt law, the length of the sentence and the summary way in which it was imposed are clearly evidence of bias. It can also be argued that contempt did not *have* to apply and that while Robinson took a risk here, his behavior does not necessarily have to be seen as contempt, which reinforces the idea that his sentencing ws unduly harsh and evidence of bias.
There is no misunderstanding at all. This was political.
Tommy Greetings from Poland.
American here! We are with you Tommy ❤️
Does the UK allow / respect free speach? So what did Tommy actually do that compromised the trial? He didn't report details of the trial.
it does allow free speech(not in the same manner as the US though) however as was outlined, Tommy attended as a reporter - and as such was subject to the same constraints as other reporters who were also there. Had he kept his mouth shut for a little while longer, this whole situation wouldnt exist.
He pleaded guilty. if you or anyone still think he's innocent you are beyong stupid.
New Thought interesting. Have you ever heard “Miscarriage of Justice”? You live in the La La land. You are too innocent to this real world. Kid. The world is way darker than your unicorn imagination. child rape gang leader 3 years but report it 13 months? do you feel innocent now?
Miscarriage of Justice?
He was already on a suspended sentence for Contempt of Court then did it AGAIN!
New Thought Since he wasn't allowed to call his own lawyer and made do with a court appointed one who told him to plead guilty so he could get out and get his lawyer to work things out, I would perhaps say it was a set up.
Sounds like propaganda to me!
Channel 4 News BS at its best. Prove that he pleaded guilty... you can’t. Lie No 1.
He pleaded guilty thinking he would get a fine like all other journalists for the same offence. That part of his character, belief that justice must prevail, is why so many people love him.
Emilovius He didn’t plead guilty, that’s why he appealed and won the case. You’re confusing this with the first case. Here’s a link that’ll help you understand. ruclips.net/video/Nui1dITSJYM/видео.html

Lies, propaganda, slander......welcome to channel 4
“Lies, propaganda, slander” welcome to Steven/ Tommy talking about Muslims and the Quran.
Let’s be honest, that’s not why they jailed him, he challenged the narrative, raised issues which were being suppressed and paid with his liberty, his marriage, his two businesses, 7 houses and his reputation, re manufactured by the state to misrepresent him as a classic far right racist, rather than a non-political simple working class lad and critic of a specific religious ideology and the special treatment it received in his town and across the country, which lead to widespread victims. This case, regardless of your politics, should be taught in Journalism school, to show the clinical assassination which occurs when you challenge the official line. It is frightening how many haven’t even watched Mr Lennon’s Oxford Union address, let alone any of the excellent documentaries like Silenced on RUclips or the Tankz, Anything Goes podcast. So many podcasts where he utterly destroys the fake strawman persona which the media has projected onto him. You’ll hear, “ EDL fight eachother”, but be never told that Tommy and many others were physically fighting real bonafide fascists, which is where one of his assault convictions comes from, literally, punching a Nazi. You’ll hear, convicted fraudster, but they won’t tell you, that when he refused to work for the intelligence services, they forensically investigated his whole family’s finances and found one had slightly exaggerated their income on a mortgage. They then threatened his pregnant wife with prison, if he didn’t accept jail, to silence him. There are so many dichotomous views like these, such as his family being doxxed by a lawyer, who hired a man to serve papers on him, who threatened to mince his children, on video. The police did nothing. The law society did nothing. But the story was reported as, Tommy harasses historian. You can’t quite imagine the Machiavellian evil which has twisted the public’s view of his beliefs and behaviour.
The trial was over you fools . They had already been found guilty and was there that day for sentencing. So how could’ve of collapsed a trial .He only reported information that was already published on the BBC.
Swift justice for the victims by jailing the man who reports on them? What about swift justice for the people who cover it up.
#CivilWar
Channel 4 have completely missed the point on this one. The anger and support for Tommy isn't about what happened on that day in isolation, this sentiment has been building for years, and this incident is just a trigger. It's building precisely because of the way Channel 4, and ALL other mainstream media organisations have such a "liberal" agenda. You're ideologically driven, to the point where vast swathes of this country feel they are unable to even mention concerns they have about current social issues without being shouted down. How else could no one, and that's literally no one, in the entire establishment and mainstream media, not have seen the Brexit vote going the way it did? Why, because you're totally out of tune with the electorate, because you won't let ordinary people voice their opinions, because you're so certain you're right. Continue to ignore and shut down, it won't end well. You need to be a lot more responsible - you're actually causing the issues here.

You're obviously quite ignorant of how the judicial system works in our country. Lennon committed two crimes and now faces justice. Long overdue.
TMan786 That's fine. But as I said this isn't just about Tommy's arrest. Did you not get that from what I wrote?
The reason why to experts failed to predict the results of the 2015 General Election and the EU referendum is because many people in Britain long ago became very wary about volunteering their true opinions to strangers. That's the kind of country we've become.
WOW! Just listen to these desperate establishment liars!!
No he did not plead guilty. He was not asked to plead!
And then channel 4 have the gall to accuse others of getting basic facts wrong.
And when was defending civil liberties solely a right wing cause.
Jesus, what are we becoming?
of course no reporting restrictions on the like of Rolf Harris and others who had to endure a scrum of reporters on the way in to court
Those cases are one trial and one verdict at the end.
This is THREE trials dealing with the defendants from the same case. Once all THREE trials are concluded the reporting restriction is lifted.
Fred Bloggs No, they will still only report what the government will allow them to report.
It had nothing to do with freedom of speech:

A friend of mine told me aboutl Rolf Harris 9 months before the British media were even allowed to write a word about it. MY mom refused to believe me until it made trial. :(
So, yes, there WAS reporting resrictions, you cockwomble.
And how did all the reporters work for Max Clifford? For a PR person, he was a complete tw*twaffle.
1. The trial was over the verdict was given. 2. He wasn't taken to a police station and properly processed (illegal). 3. The judge witnessed the alleged contempt and then took the case. 4. He was denied access to his chosen lawyer and his lawyer was lied to and told he wasn't needed (illegal). The first thing his lawyer would've said would've been to request a recess to prepare a defence.
Further to my 4th point it is likely although can't of course be proved that his court appointed lawyer probably said "because of who u are I'm not going to bother defending u so u may as well plead guilty" or at least that's what I am alleging😀
Due process - the judge can't have bias...
These horrendous crimes that these men carried out should have been all over the news with every reporter on the planet there filming and reporting on the monstrous acts of child rape that these men committed.
IM sure certain people were more than happy to see Tommy jailed rather than those evil monsters getting their sentences.
He never pleaded guilty and his solicitor was told that he would be released. You got the basic facts wrong.
Can't get more Fake propaganda than this
True true but what is real propergander?
Why is it propaganda?
Far as I can research, it's all perfectly true.
@@1wwc45 in light of the recent information that has come out do you still think this?
What is fake about it? Instead of namecalling provide sensible facts.
@@1wwc45 PMSL.
Lies by omissions beyond belief.
There were actual threats yelled at Tommy right in front of the police and they did nothing, but then arrest him for breaching the peace. Curiously, all while the judge can be seen watching the arrest together with a bunch of policemen from the courthouse.
Also using your arguments about the legality of things, one could also argue that all the convictions done in the soviet union were all perfectly fine, because they followed their own laws...
In Tommy's case, there were clearly abusing certain laws in order to get him to shut up. Have you seen the testimony of one of the whistle-blowers about these child-rape/prostitution-rings and their protection by police and politicians?
This is what happens when you show the state for what it is. They will go to any lengths to shut you up.
Wow! You all in the UK can get charged with contempt of court when your not even inside of the building???
Oh look, it has been 2 weeks and NOW you are reporting!!!
+First Last
Can you actually cite what you are saying?
Specially rapist being freed?
All's well that ends well. The criminal is in jail.
The like/dislike ratio is sooo satisfying to see though
infowars does a better job of reporting the news.
PUT UP true news
Sure, if you’re a fruitloop off your meds it does.
@@OneThousand98 No, your just sitting in your bubble. Ow how I'd love to be as ignorant as you, honestly It would be a lot easier.
Hilarious
It’s ran by Zionist shill bags 😷☝️🇮🇷
Must be hard as a tv channel to make a video about something like this and not about the actual problems that resulted Tommy to appear at the 1st place right?
This didn't age well.
Why in the UK when the Rolf Harris trial. There was a circus media before, during and after the trial. Why didn't all those reporters go to jail? This Canadian very perplexed.
And cliff riichard raid. BBC same smear merchants .
#freetommy
I'm not from the UK so maybe that's why I'm ignorant of this, but how can you be arrested for contempt of court when you're outside of the court?
Lies and twisting the story is one of the biggest reasons people who can think for themselves will never believe you.
"Welcome to so what, our show which spreads disinformation about the important issues that you need to be brainwashed about, for our benefit"
What part of that was disinformation???? Ur just mad that facts aren't on ur side
The right-wingers feel lost without the daily fake news of Britain First which has finally been closed. The majority of Tommy's followers are illiterate (can't even speak their own easy language properly 🙈😂), mentally naive and culturally clueless, yet they think they're the solution to this issue with their selective morals... they probably have a Jimmy Saville poster on their bedroom walls. 😂

Bye bye Tommy.

Actually it was Johnny Rotten and Glen Matlock.
Nature Wins when are you coming out?
Government propaganda
Absolutely sad how he has been treated,. There is no way anyone from England can ever say anything negative about America...
The girls who were raped were children God bless and keep Tommy Robinson safe
They can sugar coat and explain it all they want ...
But at the end of the day, no man should be arrested, sentenced, sent to prison, within 4-5 hours without anyone knowing what happened him...
Hes with a gang? Any proof? Which gang?? Gimme names or youre lying!!
He’s held in a wing of Hull prison run by non-Muslims. (Watch recent interview with his cameraman). The treasonites know if he dies in prison he’ll be a martyr, they just want him silenced and off the streets.
That's how contempt of court works in our country. If you don't like it move to another country. Try supporting British values moaner.
EyeAmBatman If he's an idiot like Tommy why ever not?
EyeAmBatman When his lawyer phoned the courthouse to find where Tommy was, they were told he had been released, so they didn't go there. Lie, upon lie.
This is poor reporting. Robinson didn’t state anything on his live stream that hadn’t already been put into the public domain by the BBC. He was very careful to refer to the defendants as “alleged rapists” instead of just “rapists”. At no point did Robinson enter court property, he remained outside. He was informed by police at the scene that he was allowed to film. He was arrested under the false charge of “breach of the peace”, not contempt of court. The judge that sentenced Tommy also bore witness to the alleged crime which is not allowed under U.K. law and should have voided the trail. The length of the sentence handed to Robinson was unprecedented in comparison to the actual “crime”. And most importantly the Jury had already reached a verdict, this was a sentencing hearing to determine sentences only, it’s pretty hard to influence a jury that have already declared their decision. I’ll be the first to say I don’t necessarily agree with everything Robinson says or believes, but regardless of your opinion of the man this was gross misconduct at best. I’d like to think that you have missed out this information entirely by accident and therefore am hoping that you rectify your mistake at your earliest convenience. We wouldn’t want anybody thinking that this was some kind of biased propaganda now would we, channel 4.
He committed his second contempt of court.
TMan786 if you say so pal
TMan.....so according to you he should be being 'hung by the neck' in public......is contempt of court 'worse than' rape, or CONCEALING the harm/rape of girls
Nicely worded
Well said. Nothing in the article was actually untrue - except "the Far right" bit, but it is being INCREDIBLY selective with the facts and with the narrative. MSM is dying. RIP and good riddance.
“ Journalists like me” Ha!Ha!Ha! Thank God for real journalists like Tommy Robinson. The bravest man in Britain.
You wouldn't dare put the head of Sadiq Khan on a pike and put it into a corner of a building as a warning to Muslims, Remainers, the Media such as channel 4, BLM and Climate activists, would you?
13 months was a bit harsh they wouldn't do it to a Muslim.
This is worse than the Cathy Newman interview..
You lot need to study English contempt law, Jesus fucking Christ... Tommy Robinson's been running his gob for years, nae problems, then gets done for jeopardizing criminal trials.The biggest irony is that if we didn''t have laws like this, aforementioned Muslim child molesters' trials could have collapsed, and they wouldn't have faced justice. Tommy Robinson risked keeping Muslim child molesters on the street, and if you're too dumb to understand that, you're a fucking eejit.
AntiSatori Records There were other journalists there too. Why didn’t they suffer the same fate? If you can’t see that Robinson’s imprisonment was purely political, it’s you who’s the ‘eejit.’
Dr Watson I know the channel 4 is super left wing but on this video I think they covered it rather unbiased like. Facts and laws are clear and Tommy already being convicted of this, he seems pretty silly to be honest to even attempt it.
Dr Watson: Did you notice, the direction in which the information was heavily slanted; Example: Tommy Robinson is no stranger to jail. Mortgage Fraud, Passport tampering, ect. Leaving out any suggestion that he was hounded by UK authorities, it is not like anyone was defrauded of money, during the mortgage irregularity, or that for him to go to the US and give a speech, on the effects of Muslim migration, that he had to resort to using a dodgy passport.
The political establishment, of the UK, has been subverted by people with a deep understanding of human behaviour, the mind, and the psyche, the people funding their work, getting it into the press, schools and politics are the Islamist's, be it Quatar, Saudi's, United Nations, Muslim Brotherhood ect
Neuro - Linguistic - Programing is a way of understanding people's behaviour patterns, and then influencing their behaviour. As a way of gaining power over them or others. You see the press at it all the time; with their constant attacks on Christianity and never publishing anything that is critical of Islam, rather what they do is the opposite; misnaming Islamic Terrorism so as to prevent people from picking up on the meaning of the attack, it is not these acts were carried out by some bad people who happen to be Muslim, no they are the result of people believing in a bad religion, who carry out the instructions given in that religion. It's the same case with the Muslim Gangs of Mass rapists, targeting children, not Muslim girls, no it is the daughters, sisters of the Kafir, that they rape. (Kafir a Muslim term for unbeliever.)
Lie.
I don't notice you devoting a whole video to the subject of the grooming gangs ... smh :-(
Remember, grooming gangs is a government term to hide what is going on. Gangs that rape small children over and over again, is the term.
Oooh ... sorry ... Mr Pedantic ... smh :-(
Danny Loftus how many Pakistani Muslim grooming gangs are there? It’s only a “huge problem” because they’re not white. And what difference does it make that they’re related. The far-right need to learn to hate the act of grooming more than they do the nationality of the minority that do.
Stop using the sanitised term "grooming gangs", to do so is to play the politically correct language game to avoid the problem. The term is RAPE gangs. Their crime is mass repeated rape, gang rape, and false imprisonment of minors.

Bye bye Tommy.
Bye bye.
Bye bye Tommy.

He tried to warn you all and you called him racist for speaking the truth. Shameful.
I've listened to a lot of what he's said and I can't really see much evidence of racism.
I think this may have just backfired on Channel 4, they have shown there hand and will now never be able to fight in court there right to report on anything the courts or government tell them they can’t, because every time they do this will be thrown at them it shows and for cowards they are
What is the old saying? ‘Never let the truth get in the way of a good story!’. What do they teach these freaks at journalism school?
@Anglo Commando yes they try to hide the fact that muslims are slowly wipping us whites out for good
Is that what they call people that oppose rape gangs. Right wing. Looking at the comments here he's a hero
He speaks the truth, people see him as a racist without listening to what he has to say, sticking up for Britain’s problems, proud to support him🇬🇧
Wrong
Very Wrong.
A proud British man who is sick of seeing our once great nation being took over by isis supporters/members. They are not wanted here and do not belong here
Not one mention of the judge that witnessed the whole thing and then took the case on.
So what,he still did break the law. You break the law,you will be punished. Nothing complicated about it.
Blockchain Bot.
He chose to act in that way, then when charged with contempt of court he chose to plead guilty.
Bsonsyrup I didn't know that about UK contempt law - could you point to the source of both the law and that the judge in question notified the police?
He did not break the law at all and never has only been persecuted. Look up the last 100 contempts of courts in the UK everyone did it 100 times not just 2 like tommy and all got away with it or nothing like 13 months. He is politcal prisoner
If people bothered actually doing some research into the law & legal procedures (instead of just believing half baked rumours they hear on the internet) they would learn that it's actually NOT 'illegal' for a judge to preside over a 'contempt of court case' in which they have been the witness to the contempt of court being committed.
"Fringe of the right"....when's the last time you heard any mainstream media outlet (US/European) describe someone part of the "fringe of the left?"
Wasn't that a human rights lawyer, we all know we're they stand.

@@danielnielsen1977 I agree with your words. I do not know about the United States but I know the United Kingdom is finished. It’s slowly happening all over Europe, Germany and Sweden especially.

Once you know who Channel 4 is run by, this kind of propaganda makes sense. (hint, its the UK government)
It's not.
Norton I go on then, who is it run by?
TheCausation tell me more!
This is what happens when a country does not have a bill of rights recognizing freedom of speech.
It doesn't matter whether you like him or agree with him, what matters is when did speaking become a crime?
This is brilliant. Arrest the Guy shining a light on the peodophiles while the real criminals walk the streets.
This news has reached every corner of the Internet, as you say, but not on mainstream media
After the Jordan Peterson interview i think most people consider Channel 4 to just be propaganda.
Not trying to govern free speech but arresting and charging people for making comical jokes and skits online. The system has gone absolutely psychotic, they're actually thick. They think they are wise but by proclaiming to be they'e become stupid to the nth degree, that thing with Dankula on their part was pathetic.
You don't speak for "most people". Do you?
Its ran by the ex editor of the Guardian, what do you expect.
james gaskell Amen! Grossly biased to one side
Almost nonone even heard of Channel 4 outside of that shithole called Britain before the Peterson interview. That's all they were after anyway... exposure.
Let's report it as a misleading video.
Just go watch the video right after this where they backtrack almost everything...
