THIS Saturday, May 7, fascist Tommy Robinson, aka Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, the former leader of the violent and Islamophobic English Defence League, will be returning to the streets of Telford in Shropshire with his supporters.
Yaxley-Lennon is continuing his attempt to use the appalling grooming cases in the city to stir up division and claim — despite all the independent evidence to the contrary — that it is only the Muslim community who is responsible for such acts.
This is a horrible and cynical ploy by Robinson to use the victims of abuse to promote his own agenda. Let’s be clear from the start that he cares absolutely nothing for those who have suffered.
