So the spitting ain’t being charged with attempted murder . What happens if the guy has covid . BBCWorld are a bunch of fake clowns
White Christian paedo got Madeleine McCann
He does not normally need an excuse !
So it's OK to spit in people you don't like faces ? I'd better compile a list before i venture out !
I absolutely hate the lemon Yaxly twattly. He is a far right fascist. Though spitting really is a trigger for a lot of people. I full understand why anyone would act violently to it.
BBC news don't let this scumbag take away from the real issue in barrow. elliewilliams needs justice and focusing on a tw*t like yaxley lennon and not the huge anger and fear in barrow is wrong in my opinion.
the guy is an ignorant pest but to be fair punching someone for spitting on you?
Spitting is disgustIng. Did he hit him?
Again. Seems to be a habit. Not nice getting spat on but knowing him it was a lie and looking at the footage it was very much over the top. He needs anger management.
Spittin man lifted as well
Can't stand Robinson but he had a right to defend himself on this occasion. The bloke who spat at him should be the one in a cell for assault.
I’d punch someone who spat at me. Doesn’t mean I’m a fan of Robinson.
Hahaha bad bellend
Isn’t it about time we stopped giving any air time and recognition to this violent racist pig?
BBC paying for Tommygun legal defence. BlackLivesMatter
The persecution of this bloke is becoming quite sinister. Being 'gobby' and calling out the industrialised grooming of children and commenting that it is quite often carried out by Pakistani origin networks, is not a crime.
whoever spat in his face , tell him nice one from me , good lad . everyone in the uk should do the same until he gets the message .
Name just one thing he made up?
If someone spat at me then they would also get a right hook aswell.. Spitting is also a criminal offence
It’s awful what keeps happening to him. It’s almost as if he’s brought it on himself or something
Oh well
That’s it, I’m no longer paying the licence fee.
Course you jumped on this story
I’d probably bang someone out for spitting at or anywhere near me. We’re in a pandemic. Where’s your report on the peado that touched his daughter up? scrapthelicencefee
BBC with half the story again. Never trust the BBC even when it’s someone you don’t like. Go and look for the truth. Left or right, they are playing you.
Just a reminder that Belly Mujinga, a ticket officer in London died after being spat on. Her family never got justice. 'Tommy Robinson' is a known racist lying scumbag. So i wouldn't believe a word he is saying. Throw him in prison & throw away the key 👍🏽
Didn’t piersmorgan class this as attempted murder , or does that view change because it’s tommy .
Throw away the key. Parasite
Strange how he always has a contemporary excuse for his outbursts of violence.
They should just save time and keep him in...
Why was he over 200 miles from home? Surely that's a lockdown breach.
Why is he newsworthy?
Another stupid scenario of agitators (in this case law enforcement) to create disharmony in the community. PsyOp Unify TheMediaIsInOnIt
Notice he’s always a hard man when he surrounded by his goons?
FREE ARE TOMMEH
I hope he busted the spitters mouth
Booo!
Neo nazis are gonna love this. Creaming their gammon drawers
While police are allowed to kill people & nothing happens
Is Spitting Man related to Spider-Man?
Wouldn’t it save everyone a lot of time and effort if they kept him in this time?
I wonder what kind of assault it was? A good kicking a slapping, Or something in between?
I would have done the same thing with no fucks given, pandemic or no pandemic!
back_the_BBC Isn't it about time waxley-lemon had his citizenship revoked and dumped on an island in the Atlantic? He can't stay out of bother and is a drain on our society
Always the victim...
Somebody spitting at you during Covid 19 pandemic? That’s a dangerous assault.
Great news!
He is a magnet for trouble it seems. We should deport him.
Every fuxker there seemed to have mobiles with them the amount of videos I saw of covid spreading silently and prolifically..... I'm sure if it did happen someone would have filmed it. Funny that no such video has surfaced yet.
Poor guy. Trouble just follows him around, doesn’t it?
Great news. Man is a total bellend! Its gonna b a great weekend.....
Moment so in UK for self defence you can be arrested?😱
I had tommeh down as a swallower not a spitter
Didn’t report about the man who assaulted his daughter has been arrested then
Funny how never gets reported him outing grooming gangs
As much as I hate this chump, I dislike spitters possibly even more.
The guy isn't only vile... But very stupid
You are promoting a domestic terrorist. Why is this news
I am looking for a serious relationship, a woman to become my best friend, companion, passionate lover. I think i have a lots to give. I am a kind, caring easy going man. I'm quite active, love swimming .follow back let's get to know each other better .
The only thing Tommy Robinson stands for is, Tommy Robinson the sooner people realise this the better. He is not a people's hero he dont give a duck about anyone else but his own ego
Tommeh arrested again. He seems awfully interested in “child grooming” JustSaying
Should be given a medal not arrested! Spitting in another’s face is a disgusting act
So what was spitting if not a assault. You have the write in this country to defend your self. No matter who they are.
He's obviously got 'issues' shouldn't he be given some psychiatric help.
