In a very short verdict hearing three of Britain’s most senior judges including the Lord Chief Justice Lord Burnett, released journalist and human rights campaigner Tommy Robinson from imprisonment today.
According to Ezra Levant of the Rebel Media channel, The judges decided not to quash the conviction for contempt of court imposed on Mr Robinson at a hearing in Canterbury in 2017 but released him from prison on bail pending a re hearing of the highly contentious Leeds contempt hearing.
I’ve not yet seen any written judgement from the judges but I would assume that the decision to let the Canterbury conviction stand may well be down to the fact that there were no procedural irregularities in this case. The Leeds case, as many will know did seem to have a lot of irregularities and it is this case that has been ordered to be re-tried.
Tommy is free. He has had a terrible time of it whilst in gaol and he’s probably going to need some time to recover from his ordeal but the important thing is Tommy Robinson, a man who has fought for the rights of many, including that of my family and myself, is now free. It only remains for me to paraphrase and adapt the words of Dr Martin Luther King Jr and say:
Free at last, free at last, thank the Almighty Eternal One, he’s free at last

The Leeds trial was so fundamentally flawed as to amount to a complete stitch up. The Judge in that farrago got a complete hammering, dressed up in the language of legal propriety of course. I am profoundly grateful for the commendable and heroic work of Ezra Levant, grotesquely accused of being a Nazi by far left Antifa loons outside the court when it was over. His tweets gave an accurate blow by blow account of the original “trial” and the appeal. So good to have alternative truth sources, instead of the usual hackneyed spin diversions and deceits, especially that which comes via a state poll tax. Happy day.
