Anybody follow him on Twitter?
He retweeted that odious prick Tommy Robinson yesterday.
I no longer follow him on Twitter.
-
I noticed that as well.
I know last year his tweets showed him as a staunch brexiteer but this is a different level :(
-
Really? That's odd.

I noticed that as well. I wonder how he squares this with his vocal admiration of Bruce Springsteen?
-
From hero to zero in one tweet. Quite impressive!
-
I find that disappointing, as I did Paul McGrath's tweet about Martin McGuiness. I won't be unfollowing either though.
-
Then he's a ******.
-
He actually re-tweeted the Andrew Neil speech from the other day but yes, he could have chosen a better source to re-tweet it from obviously.
-
Anyone seen his series of interviews with the Villa View guys on YouTube? Well worth a watch.
-
I thought Tommy Robinson was a reformed character these days or am I wrong? Must admit haven't heard from him in a while.
-
Has said tweet been deleted now?
-

Seriously if all he tweeted was the Andrew Neil speech people need to calm down. He probably didn't even spot the source.

Reformed into what?
-
I quite liked 2-4-6-8 Motorway. Shame.

I think he did briefly work with the Quillam foundation but the fact that he popped up in Central London mere minutes after the deaths last week to gain exposure for his views would bracket him alongside the likes of Farage and Hopkins once again.

I'm sure we've all accidentally retweeted a far right fascist. It's not that difficult to see the source of the tweet.

He might not even know who he is, or the name might not register in the time it takes to retweet. The nature of twitter is you retweet something you like, you don't necessarily spend time clicking through and double checking the source. It was a good video, widely shared. The source was unfortunate but hardly warrants a hysterical reaction.
-
I can't see the Tweet, unless I'm looking in the wrong place. Maybe someone pointed out the source, and he has deleted accordingly. He's spent a fair bit of time abroad and been ill so entirely possible he might not know who Tommy Robinson is.
Well, that's me trying to give him the benefit of the doubt anyway...
-
Whilst I know who Tommy Robinson is, the name didn't immediately register with me when I read this post and I had to double check who he was. I think it would be pretty easy to innocently share from a source like that (it's not the same as sharing posts in the name of BNP, Britain First etc)

No, he's still a horrible racist ******.

"Hysterical reaction". Where? I just stopped following him because he retweeted a right wing c**t. He's since deleted it.

No, he's still a horrible racist c***.
He's not racist, he just has genuine concerns about immigration, and brown people, mostly the latter really.
-

Reformed into what?
I am out of the loop clearly but I thought I saw him on Newsnight saying he had left whatever group he was a part of - ie the far right one. But if I am wrong then so be it. I was never much interested in his views.

left one, joined another, left them, briefly joined a group that actually wasn't completely racist and then left them. I don't think he's affiliated to anyone right now so he's preaching his own special brand of racist bullshit.

I always thought it funny that he refused meat in prison because it was halal. Then on his release went to Nando's to celebrate...who source halal meat.
-
Okay well thank you for enlightening me. Let's not go overboard about Gregory though. Is he really racist for retweeting something credible but from a crap source?
-

If you really want to be depressed, read some of the comments.
-
He spoke a lot of crap as Villa manager.
Stands to reason he'll let himself down via any other means of communication.
-
apparently Gregory is proper upset about Chris not following him anymore and deleted his tweet immediately
he has now tweeted a photo of himself holding up a home made banner with 'he'll be back' written on it :)
-
Tommy Robinson never heard of him, so ive educated myself by reading the posts on this thread.
-
Can't believe for one moment he is racist, as he was manager to an arab team in Israel not so long ago.
Saying that he does come out with some populist crap when discussing life.
-
I quite liked 2-4-6-8 Motorway. Shame.
Same here. Thought he was Glad to Gay as well.
Saw his band at The Odeon on New Street back in the late 70's with Stiff Little Fingers supporting.

Truely horrifying. Open hatred. How long before people start putting muslims' windows through , do we reckon?

He used to bust chiffarobes but Mayella Ewell fucked him over. He never really recovered from that.

What's a chiffarobe?

Ashes, hopefully.
-
What's a chiffarobe?
A chifforobe.
A wardrobe used by slags in the deep South.
-
Thanks Peter. I get it now. A chiffonier. I need to get out more.
-
What's a slag? And why is south deep?
-
A slag is a woman, or man, of some ill repute who have become separated from metals during the refining process.
South is deep because the many inhabitants taken from various parts of the world left a residue of a knowledge base, and humility unseen or unrivaled anywhere else across the globe.

I loved Baldrick but the muddy ditch stuff bored me. Shame.

Cool. Does that mean I can unite with him and 'make the best of things'?

Thank you for comprehensively disembalming my questions.

"Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon, known by the pseudonym Tommy Robinson and also going by the names Andrew McMaster and Paul Harris,..."
Never heard of him, so did a google. Why the fuck would you have 4 different names? Dodgy.

I changed my name to Major Major Minor Diminished Suspended and then to Mani Di Presso before settling on Lead Kindly Tenebris Light.

I've just been reading "A Good Ride" by Irvine Welsh and am considering The Juicer for my next monicker.

It's late so may be way off course but the word 'futmch' has made me think of the young ones.

Also brings to mind a 'Ford Tippex' from the same episode.

Irony of all ironies.
Young twat of clearly Irish descent waxes lyrical about why it was no surprise who carried out the attack.
Were the 70's 80's and 90's erased from his history books.
Maybe if he spoke to some of the older generation, he would know what it was like to be a wrongly accused terrorist, because of what other people have done.
