I
am no fan of Ezra Levant and Rebel Media but what is true is true.
Tommy Robinson who has been vindicated by the Chief Justice of the UK
was tried in just a few hours and endured 2 months of his 13 months
sentence in conditions that no rapist or murderer (or indeed,
terrorist) would ever have to enjoy.
Meanwhile,in New Zealand we have our own problems with a hostile media and the suppression of free speech.
Where the hell are the human rights organisations, like Amnesty?!

Robinson: I Was Kept in Solitary Confinement 23.5 Hours a Day,
Excrement Pushed Through Windows
2
August, 2018
Tommy
Robinson has described a Spartan existence in prison in an interview
following his release, claiming he was kept locked in solitary
confinement for 23 and a half hours at a time and had to subsist on
one can of tuna a day.
The
activist was bounced into prison to serve two consecutive prison
sentences for contempt of court within five hours of an arrest for an
alleged breach of the peace in May.
The
decision was defended at the time by a number of left-liberal talking
heads and legal commentators, including the pseudonymous ‘Secret
Barrister’, but quashed on August 1st in the Court of Appeal by the
Lord Chief Justice, who ruled that the sentencing judge had moved
with unseemly haste and deviated from proper due process in a way
that was “much more than a technical failure”.
Robinson’s
time in prison appeared to have a taken a serious toll on him in the
interview, conducted by his former employer at Rebel Media, Ezra
Levant. The Luton native appeared gaunt, hollow-eyed, and slurred his
words.
He
told the Canadian he had only seen his wife and children twice, for
an hour at a time, in all the time he was behind bars, and spent
almost all his time in solitary confinement.
“They
moved me from HMP Hull, which was a 7 percent Muslim population, to
the most densely Muslim-populated prison in the country,” he
claimed.
“I
had threats every day… I couldn’t have my cell windows open
because they would be spat through or shit put through, so I had my
windows shut all the time,” he said, describing how he struggled
with the recent heatwave as a result.
Asked
if he knew why he had been moved from Hull, he said the authorities
“gave no reason, but I know why they did it — because what they
then did is they used the excuse of my safety [to] put me straight in
solitary confinement.”
Robinson
described this confinement as “23 and a half hours a day, locked in
a room [with] a blue mat… and then for thirty minutes a day they
open the door and you walk into a cage… small, and you walk around
the cage on your own, and then they open the door and lock you back
in.”
The
Englishman appeared visibly disturbed while recounting his
incarceration.
“If
every prisoner had that… If that was the sentence for prisoners…”
he began, falteringly.
“It
was the fact that every other prisoner’s cell door opens at 8
o’clock in the morning and they’re out of their cell working,
having football, playing pool, and then they get locked up at 6
o’clock at night,” he finally explained.
“And
then I think, I haven’t done anything — but because they’ve
brought me to a Muslim-run prison, they’ve used the excuse that
this is why they have to [keep me confined].”
Robinson
said he could not eat the food which was sent to his cell in case it
was poisoned — having been prepared, he said, by Muslim prisoners,
who would goad him by asking “How’s your dinner, Tommy?”
He
instead subsisted on a tin of tuna a day, as it came sealed and he
could be reasonably sure of its safety, plus some fruit.
Levant
said that Robinson, who looked far leaner than when he went inside
two months ago, had told he had dropped fully 42 pounds — around
three stones, or twenty kilograms

Robinson
became emotional several times when describing the toll the
experience had taken on his family, and when thanking those who have
supported him outside prison.
He
is also concerned that, while his original conviction has been
quashed, the appeal judges ordered his hearing to be reheard, meaning
he could be sent back inside — a move he believes has been designed
to “mentally break” him.
“Tommy
knows that he was messed up… I don’t think he even knows how
badly,” commented Levant after the interview.
“I
think his health has been permanently affected, and that was on
purpose,” he added.
