The Spin

The judge's verdict proves what supporters knew all along —Tommy Robinson was targeted for his political beliefs, not terrorism. Police conducted discriminatory political persecution, spending millions to destroy him through endless harassment. This rare moment of judicial fairness exposes systematic bias against those challenging establishment narratives on immigration and free speech.

Robinson's acquittal, which even the judge hinted at being based on a technicality, exposes the dangerous mainstreaming of far-right extremism in British politics. His ideas about "two-tier policing" now echo through Conservative and Reform UK rhetoric, while his anti-immigrant views find support from billionaire Elon Musk. This verdict legitimizes a figure whose conspiracy theories constantly threaten minorities.
