Tommy Robinson arrested over alleged assault at London train station
Independent5 days
Robinson's arrest was inevitable following another cycle of violence, fleeing, and fundraising. The far-right grifter allegedly knocked a veteran unconscious, fled to Portugal, then launched another crowdfunding scam. This serial criminal faces multiple charges yet keeps exploiting his gullible supporters' wallets. Robinson has always been and always will be nothing more than a thug.
Robinson's ability to leave the country despite being a wanted suspect is a failure in border security. While Robinson deserves the presumption of innocence, his ability to fly freely to Tenerife reflects a humiliation of our policing services. Full CCTV footage must be released to the public in order to end speculation — whether it shows self-defense or assault, transparency is essential.
