THE BRITISH INQUISITION
The English Rights Campaign has published a number of items on the British Inquisition since this blog was created. Over the years, a number of people have fallen victim to the politically-correct thought police, who have grown ever more extreme in their zealotry.
Recently, Tommy Robinson was arrested and imprisoned. He was arrested while he was reporting outside a court where a number of Muslims were awaiting the jury verdict for alleged grooming and rape offences (to put it generally).
When arrested by a number of police officers, Tommy Robinson was told that it was for breaching the peace. His team were unable to locate him and were informed by his lawyers that they had been told that he had been let free. His team had attended the police station where the police denied knowledge of his arrest.
After many hours, there was a tip off that Tommy Robinson was listed to appear in front of the judge who had been presiding over the rape trial. He had not been released, but was in fact now charged with contempt of court. The judge sentenced Tommy Robinson to 13 months in prison, and Tommy Robinson was immediately dispatched to Hull prison where he remains.
The judge then imposed a D-notice gagging order on all reporting of his actions and of Tommy Robinson's plight.
Had not his team been tipped off, then Tommy Robinson would simply have been disappeared.
This disgraceful state of affairs led to worldwide protests, from even as far away as Israel and Australia. Angry protesters demonstrated outside Downing Street. And rightly so.
Given the international furore and its futility, the D-notice was revoked.
This episode is a reminder of the extremism of the politically correct, and that British justice has been respected due to the jury system -- and not because of the judiciary.
It will be seen if justice will prevail, or if the government manages to ignore the national and international outrage.
