so Tommy Robinson's out let's talk about it my name is Sham Sharma welcome to
The Sham Sharma Show hello hello and welcome welcome to another edition
of The Sham Sharma show thank you very much for joining me today thank you very
much for watching I appreciate you all right so Tommy Robinson has been
released on bail he was arrested outside of the Leeds combined court after
filming a trial of a grooming gang according to reports he was handed a
13-month sentence within six hours of his arrest for violating a suspended
sentence which he had received for a similar offense in Canterbury last year
the problem came when Robinson started filming live outside the Leeds Court and
he was trying actually still very hard not to be on court property who's trying
to be outside of the court property while filming it and he was still
arrested and sent to only prison now the chief justice Lord burnett has ruled
that the case period because there were technical flaws in his sentencing the
first time around he said we are satisfied that the filming of contempt
made in Leeds following a fundamentally flawed process in what we recognized
were difficult and unusual circumstances cannot stand in essence what he said
that the five hours from arrest his sentencing at the Leeds Crown Court was
a bit rushed also Robinson wasn't apparently told
what part of his activities were potentially prejudicial to a jury which
means that he doesn't really know what exactly he did wrong however even though
he was let go on bail he is still convicted in contempt in the case back
in Canterbury last year his bail conditions also ordered that he does not
approach within 400 meters of the Leeds Crown Court now let's be very clear
about one thing here what he did was not very smart because just a year ago he
was convicted for doing something very similar in Canterbury and he was clearly
told that he had to stay away from doing an activity like this in the future and
just a year later he goes and does something very similar to that now he is
shining the light on a very crucial issue an issue that people like to skirt
around but still it was an unwise move and he does have the tendency to be a
little reckless having said that though I completely understand the frustrations
that he has as well the media and the general public narrative has
treated him pretty unfairly in my opinion you know they've always painted
him as a Nazi and as a Nazi sympathizer but but we need to remember something
that this guy was the leader of the English Defence League which was gaining
a lot of popularity among working-class people so he could have if he chose
stayed the leader of that movement and had a considerable amount of influence
but he realized that more and more sort of right-wing extremists and more and
more Nazis and Nazi sympathizers were associating themselves with EDL and were
coming to EDL events and he was having trouble and he was failing to remove
these people or keep these people out of the EDL and its movements and he has
himself admitted that because of that failure he left the EDL and again he's
one of the few sort of Western right-wingers that are fine to be
surprisingly reasonable he's not part of that crowd that's like oh if you're not
from with the West essentially you're useless you don't matter to us he
actually makes a very conscious differentiation between the sort of
Hindus and the Sikhs and the radical part of Islamic society he doesn't just
run with the all Browns and all Asians are bad rhetoric and for that he has my
appreciation because he recognizes the fact that Hindus and Sikhs by and large
have seamlessly integrated into any Western country that they've migrated to
they're fully integrated and they're fully woven into the fabric of the
societies that they moved to and even with the grooming gangs he makes that
distinction as well because you don't see a lot of freaking sukhwinders you
don't see a lot of freaking Manjits or freaking Ravi's and Rahul's
in those grooming gangs but again he has the tendency to be a little reckless and
to fly off the handle a little bit I remember there was a case where he
suggested that all the Muslims living around a particular mosques were
potentially enemy combatants which again is not the smartest statement to make
and not the most well thought-out statement to be making so I remember
there was this case where he apparently went to Rome because there were multiple
reports that within this migrant colony in Rome a lot of female journalists were
being attacked and harassed so when he went to that site apparently a lot of
migrants started threatening him with violence as well and after continuous
constant threats he apparently turned around and punched one of the migrants
in the face and then the Daily Mail turned around
and published a headline saying far-right thug tommy robinson punches a
migrant in rome while filming in an apparent no-go zone not just that
twitter apparently decided that tommy Robinson's twitter account should be
suspended for tweeting a statistic that actually originated from the Quilliam
Foundation which is a Muslim run group this statistic was about Muslim rape
gangs
which is again funny because Twitter is happy to let accounts related to
al-qaeda lashkar-e tayyiba and Isis run for a very long time and
again like I said before he brings light to a very important issue and the issue
of grooming gangs it is an issue that most of British society and an
overwhelming majority of the British media just does not want to focus on
because it is a very uncomfortable truth even when they cover instances like this
they called these grooming gangs Asian grooming gangs but what is this what
what is this for what white it's like apparently there's a bunch of Chinese
people and abundant Korean people a bunch of Hindus and a bunch of Sikhs
walking around in these gangs which is not true the cold hard fact is that
these grooming gangs involve men of overwhelmingly Pakistani origin and he's
one of the few people that is focusing on this very important and very
uncomfortable issue and because he focuses on this issue so much and
because he brings so much attention to this issue he has become a sort of a
thorn in the side of the popular narrative in the public discourse and
that is why this narrative exists against him and it is a very serious
issue I mean look at Rotherham just go search the Rotherham scandal in
England on Google and it makes your blood boil
and he also focuses on the problem of radical Islam and Islamism and this is a
problem that afflicts both India and Britain very seriously so again I'm
happy that he's out he is an important voice that needs to continue to keep
talking about these things because these are very important issues that in public
discourse and in the media nobody really wants to talk about but he also needs to
remember that the media and the public discourse is very highly skewed right
now and I have a little tiny piece of advice for Tommy as well now look some
of your conservative friends and some of your right-wing friends are probably
going to tell you that this is some Eastern heathen mumbo jumbo but try
meditating it works all right guys thank you very much for watching today's
