Tommy Robinson Reports

Tommy Robinson is appealing his oppressive sentence for contempt of court.

The trial judge threw the book at him, which was outrageous. But the prison has made it much worse — putting Tommy in solitary confinement. Not even the trial judge had contemplated that.

This hearing is an opportunity for Tommy’s top-flight “King’s Counsel” — a title given to only the most senior barristers in the UK — to make the case that the sentence is too harsh.

And I just learned today that the three-judge panel will be chaired by Justice Sue Lascelles Carr, who is the Lady Chief Justice of England and Wales. She’s the most senior judge in the UK.

For better or worse, the courts are taking Tommy’s appeal very seriously.

Tommy has now spent more than 150 days in solitary confinement. It’s outrageous that his judicial review of his prison treatment was not accepted by the courts. (That was a challenge to the way he’s actually being treated in prison). But in a way, that makes tomorrow’s appeal more convincing — there’s no way the courts meant that Tommy would be subject to nine months in solitary.

Follow my live-tweeting of the proceedings from the courtroom, and to film short videos before and after the hearing, and during any breaks.

I am now inside Courtroom 4 at the Royal Courts of Justice, which is the court of appeal. It's a fairly large courtroom. There are about 20 people in the public gallery. There are also nine people (including myself) in the seats reserved for the press.

It looks like there are six lawyers on behalf of the crown prosecutor -- I'll have to confirm that. That's a shocking amount of judicial resources dedicated to a vendetta against a political activist. But that's nothing compared to what's happening at the prison, @HMP_Woodhill.

Tommy Robinson is now on the video screen. He is in a small room, with a desk, presumably at the prison. He has a beard. A court clerk tests the audio connection and it's working.

My purpose is to keep Tommy’s many supporters around the world informed of how the appeal goes. And, just as important, to challenge the lies that will surely be told by The Guardian, the BBC state broadcaster and other hostile media about Tommy.

(Luckily, I can type faster than any of them, so for every lie they tell, I’ll be able to tell three truths!)

If you can help defray the cost of my journey, I’d be grateful. Between the flight and the taxis, it will be close to $1,000 Canadian (or about £500). I know it sounds crazy to fly seven hours each way, plus cab rides, to report on a court case. But I simply don’t trust the mainstream media in the UK — do you?

If you can help me defray the costs of my airfare and taxis, I’d be very grateful. Thanks.

WTF is he being held for? This is absolutely outrageous. The monsters behind this need to be jailed for the rest of their miserable corrupt lives.

The Marxist LibLabCon state is obviously very concerned that Tommy Robinson knows how to shine a light on their Britain-hating so that have to break him. Top marks to Ezra, Rebel and others for fighting this vital battle.

Where is that darling of the leftist Hollywood elite and (alleged, purported) international human rights lawyer, Amal (Mrs George) Clooney? I’ve not heard a peep from her about this appalling abuse of the judicial system to silence and imprison a British citizen exercising his (non) free speech (aka lawfare). Why so silent, Ms Clooney?

I honestly hope that the judge does the right thing and let’s Tommy off because if she or he doesn’t,then it will show that they don’t care about Real justice at all. They only care about kissing the government Ass
