I’m so relieved. They’ve released Tommy Robinson on bail. Amazing. I’m going to celebrate by having a new swastika tattooed on my fucking face!!! Well how else would you celebrate a victory for the nation’s finest neo-nazi? Though I’m not sure we call them such any longer. Not sure its allowed. Even if they are. But as I don’t know what else to call the leader of the ‘English Defence League’ I’ll stick with that originally selected. Nazi scum. As was shouted at him outside the High Court yesterday by the ‘anti-racists’, which I only put in quotes in case any of them are card-carrying Labour supporters and thus can only really call themselves ‘anti-racists-for-selective-races-and-ethnic-minorities-only’ in the light of the anti-semitism rife in hard-left ideology. Isn’t politics difficult to fathom. Because the anti-racists should in theory be anti-anti-semites, but the lefties among them lost an ‘anti’ somewhere along the path, probably in Islington, possibly in Venezuela.

You following?

The English Defence League is the latest version of the one-time National Front. That was banned and, like a phoenix (wearing Doc Marten boots and sporting a shaven head) from the fire, came the British National Party. Then, after that worthy body was proscribed, up sprung the EDL. Same ideology… basically ‘Paki-bashing’ in one of its many forms and Jew-hating, but names changed for legal obligations. And Tommy Robinson is their new leader. A Nick Griffin with 2 eyes. A thinking man’s Goebles.

I’m actually quite interested in what this ‘League’ is defending us Brits from? I didn’t know we were at war or under attack. But that’s just my higgorance, I’m sure. And they’re actually defending British CULCHAAA and way of life. Morris Dancing, fish’n’chips, seaside ‘ats, light’n’bitter, Ford Cortinas and the Church’uv’Inglund. Even though, since the pubs started opening on Sundays, they don’t go any more. If they ever did.

I remember in the early 70s, the National Front recruited ‘members’ at West Ham and Chelsea. From their hard-core, ultra-violent hooligans. And the hook-line was no more ‘politically ideological’ than ‘join us and we’ll guarantee loads of fights’. British culture.

Tommy Robinson is as British a working class, cor blimey Mary Poppins, name as you’ll get. Which is why he chose it instead of Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, his real name, which is rather poncey and stupid. And he was sentenced to 8 months for contempt of court, to which he admitted.

And this bastion of British… evil bastards has been defended by Steve Bannon, by UKIP, by all the mid-to-far rights from Nigel Farage to the Grand Imperial Wizard of the KKK. And he won his right to appeal. Because 8 months is a bit strong for normal contempt. But I actually think he should have received 8 years just for who he is and what he represents. Which is pure evil.

Happy belated (blame Lila, obvs) Thursday
