[Politics] American ALT-right blogger refused entry to UK

[daveinprague]

Yeah, why not the just have it on the moon. There are no laws there.

What would be the benefit to the country of a speech or yet another interview with T.R. being made in London by these people be? Why would it be necessary?

 

[Withdean11]

Its not ok. However, what benefit would they be by having an interview with Tommy Robinson? An interview they could and did hold in Austria, or could have done via the internet. Do you believe that every undesirable on the planet should be allowed in on the basis of people getting through the net?

I believe in free speech and believe that if a harmless independent journalist wishes to interview Tommy Robinson they should not be refused entry due to her desire to interview Tommy.

Free speech? There are documented pieces of her 'free speech'. Do you mean hate speech?
She could of course gone directly to Quillan organisation. Strange they didnt.

ps..your Freudian slip was noticed

I don't think she should have been let in. Like I joked about earlier. This is us being tough on immigration. Why do you care some much about this American coming over trying to cause a stir?

I don't think many of the people who are outraged at this would be so outraged if a hardline muslim blogger was coming here to interview a conservative Imam with a chequered past.

Shame, another money making operation suffers a blow.

And nothing of any value was lost.

Exceptional (well maybe not) manipulation.

An applicant was allowed entry after an in depth interview and assessment (one small part of which you choose to select to suit yourself). Certainly a bad decision with 20/20 hindsight. Many others in genuine need are rejected for every one, right or wrong, accepted.
Not exactly a trumpeted from the rooftops, roll out the red carpet and the band hoorah that you pretend to but in your world it'll do I guess.

Dear Tommy. So good they named him....................... several times.

Amazing how they stop a 22 year old and a 25 year old under section 7 of the terrorism act and rascism act (if though a religion is not a race) and allow 400 jihadis walk through customs without blinking. It is also amazing how our countries establishment does nothing to protect our children from grooming gangs up and down the country and suddenly gets offended when homophobic comments are made about a religion in Luton. The irony of it all.

do you genuinely think i dont know that ?

It wasn't a post of yours I was responding to.

Plenty of people do confuse these things, and I am not getting annoyed about it. I wasn't exactly doing this in a fit of rage.

you stated that you would point out to alfred mizen that you can be asian without being muslim , i am asking do you really not think i know that ? its irrelevant whether you were responding to a post of mine.

I answered too hastily, presuming you were responding to the "denomination" bit, and forgot I had made the other comment.

No, I didn't think you didn't know that. It's just that any Muslims I know abhor what has gone on in the sort of case this is about, and you seemed to be the main person making the point about Asian/Muslim.

Overton window.

I don't see how the concept of the Overton Window mean that the tories are left of centre. With accusations that the window has moved to the right for UKIP and Trump and left for Saunders and Corbyn I don't see how this is affecting the UK Conservative party who appear to me to be going about things in the way they always have.

Could you add some more information to your explanation?

Really, a load of fuss about feck all isnt it. A couple of foreign political agitators who want to boost their youtube income have been denied entry to the country. Good. What do people crying about it feel they have lost out on exactly?

no one's said they're losing out on anything

It's the emboldened right. After they scraped through an undemocratic referendum they now feel that anything that is anti- liberal, far right or in this stupid Canadian woman's case or this angry teenager type ,Tommy Robinson character just plain antagonistic, should have carte blanche to ride roughshod over the laws of our land and if spoken up against should be shouted down with cries of undemocratic behaviour and whining about not being able to say anything when in fact they never shut the **** up.

Your time machine needs readjusting and you should read carefully any links you comment on.

The news is from 16 months ago. All Mosques cancelled his visits.
