Tommy-knockers bringing the old UK up to a bit of the old Ultra-violence! And the author of "A Clockwork Orange" [wikipedia.org] is no doubt rolling in his grave. But here it is, as reported in the Telegraph [telegraph.co.uk], out of the Old UK, slightly pre-Brexitt.

Tommy Robinson is already a hero to America's alt-right. Now the far-right figure is aiming to woo Australia with a planned visit that has already provoked a backlash.

The former leader of the English Defence League is scheduled to tour Down Under next month, alongside Canadian Gavin McInnes, the leader of the far-right Proud Boys group.

Mr Robinson – born Stephen Yaxley-Lennon – is on bail after being charged with contempt of court. He was arrested in May and is accused of broadcasting on social media from outside Leeds Crown Court about an Asian grooming sex trial that had strict reporting restrictions placed on it.

Wah??? Asian Grooming Sex Trial? In Australia? What are they NOT telling us about the Land down Under, where men whimper, and women thunder?

But more than that: Remember, remember, the Fifth of November, the Gunpowder Treason and Plot. I know of no reason, that this treason, should ever be forgot. Unless you were pathetic criminals shipped off to Van Dieman' land and now suck up to the British Imperialist Monarchy. What losers! Catholics always trying to undo the fine work of Henry the VIII!
