The truth? Robinson is NOT a hero.
He’s a convicted CRIMINAL, a purveyor of HATE, and a DANGEROUS figure fueling Islamophobia in the UK.
Here’s why…

Contempt of court for spreading lies about a Syrian refugee, Jamal Hijazi.
Courts found him guilty of endangering lives and undermining justice.

But this isn’t his first rodeo. Robinson has been convicted of assault, fraud, and more contempt of court charges.
This pattern shows a man who thrives on chaos, not justice.

Robinson built his brand on one thing: hating Muslims.
He calls Islam a “disease,” peddles conspiracy theories, and blames Muslims for the world’s problems.
His rhetoric isn’t free speech—it’s dangerous incitement.

Yet, people like Elon Musk now paint him as a victim.
Musk calls him a “political prisoner,” ignoring the harm Robinson has caused.
Does Musk really care about what Robinson says, or do they just have something in common… HATING MUSLIMS?
