Oh Tommy Tommy - DEPORTED

He told his adoring followers that he was bankrupt, skint, and unable to stump up the money he now owes in legal costs and damages following his failed defence of a defamation claim from a young Syrian refugee about whom he made a series of highly creative, and totally untrue, claims. He failed to show up at the High Court recently. But the efforts of Stephen Yaxley Lennon to cover his tracks have been less than successful.


Lennon, who styles himself Tommy Robinson, may claim to be on his uppers, but has managed to pony up sufficient money to pay for himself and his three children to fly all the way to Cancún. In Mexico. No slumming it on a cheapo to Alicante or Malaga for him. But this was a campaign destined to develop not necessarily to his advantage.

What may not have occurred to Lennon is that his range of previous convictions includes an attempt to enter the USA on a false passport. For this, he was banned from the States, and may well have been put on a watch list. This would not have been a problem, had he restricted himself to somewhere like Spain or Greece. But it would be in Mexico.


And so it came to pass that Lennon and his party landed at Cancún, where his passport was examined, his identity confirmed, and the authorities declined to allow him entry to Mexico. Worse, he was duly nicked, held in detention and informed that he would soon be on his way back to the UK. Because he was being deported as a security risk.

So any thought of relaxing on that long white sandy beach and dipping his Plates Of Meat in the azure blue sea went straight out the nearest window. And, characteristically, Lennon was soon playing the victim. “I find it hard to live in England … can’t open a bank account … can’t rent a house”. Cue nanoviolin. “It’s half term [Easter break, actually] so I get my week’s holiday with my children. I’ve landed at Cancún Airport … I’ve been arrested”.


There was more. “I’m being deported as a matter of national security. You speak about Islam, that’s all I fucking done … what are my convictions?” That false passport incident, assault, contempt of court more than once, mortgage fraud, drug possession, and a stalking order, for starters. Try again. “I’m a journalist”. Yeah, right. Pull the other one.

But quite apart from the entertainment value, Lennon has provided an excellent public service. Had he rocked up in Benidorm or Fuengirola, few in the UK security agencies or the legal profession would have noticed. Now, with his no-show at court, the flight risk is obvious. And the chances of his “bankruptcy defence” working are vanishing.


Nick Lowles of Hope Not Hate has toldSo Stephen Lennon (aka Tommy Robinson) is awaiting deportation from Mexico after being barred from entering. He now says that his ex-wife is on her way out to link up with their kids, but one eyewitness has told me that she was on the flight out to Mexico with him”. Looks more and more like a sham separation.

Stephen Lennon can count himself fortunate if he still has a valid passport next month. His decision to shoot his mouth off may well have constrained the limits of his liberty for some time to come. Moreover, he can forget the UK’s departure from the EU as a way of escaping across the Channel with no comeback. That will just bring another deportation.

Lennon’s wild west show was for a time, but not for all time. Just rejoice at that news.

You know that advert with the "you've been tangoed" strap line... that's the "Strong Borders" karma slapping the hateful racist goblin round the face and into the next month.

On another note... can we not remove his British passport while he's sill in the foreign clink and make him stateless? You know, like they do to other criminals... who are not white. Better still use Patel's new laws to do it without telling him so when he gets back here - he'll have to fuck off again.

And on a final note... hahahahahahahah.

So now Lennon's an Undesirable Alien.

Oh my aching sides.

Too much to hope that the Mexican Authorities lose his paperwork for a few months. A salutary stretch amongst the Cartel Prisoners seems an appropriate fate for the noxious tick.

Is it very wrong of me to hope that any travel insewerants the criminal micromind has taken out will decline to cough up?

Anyone else find it odd that Tommy Ten Names gets arrested but they don't take his phone off him?

Squire Neil
Given where he'd probably hidden it, I imagine they preferred to leave it where it was.
(PS Is that why they call them 'burner phones'?)

Mr Larrington said...

Even better, the polis were waiting for him with handcuffs drawn in the baggage reclaim area of Manchester airport.

I can’t help feeling that this is a bit of, a sort of, maybe, a mid-life crisis, or not crisis, losing eight stone is a good thing but maybe he’s had, it’s just a juncture in his life. The trouble with being a professional racist is that you are in the public eye and therefore if you do things like this, it has to be scrutinised. I mean, I feel sorry for him, it must be awful.

Mr Larrington said...

If Tiny Tommeh Ten-Names lost eight stone he'd no longer be visible to the naked eye and what a good idea.
