A thorough examination of the Tommy Robinson saga.
There's a lot of #ShillScreeching and I'll provide a couple examples of the most common ones I've come across so far.
Shill: "Tommy was re-arrested for a previous crime." - that's a lie he was arrested for "Breaching the Peace."
Shill: "but you don't need to be convicted of a crime while on suspended sentence" - this, explained below, is worse than a re-arrest.
Provided for you here is the image I made for shearing on social media, but also I provide it in full written format as well. just in case Steemit pots the image too small to be read.

There's an inherent problem with that: it sounds even more like a dystopic police state.
An unlawful court order was issued upon Tommy - barring him from reporting on criminal acts by a particular group. Various excuses as to why this shouldn't be permitted were made such as the claim that it would create targeted hatred or incite hatred. Excuses aside it still boils down to "You're not permitted, as a reporter, to report on things that we don't want you to." This edict was only made legal by the creation of unlawful laws.
Tommy violated that court order, was charged, tried, convicted and sentenced to jail.
Tommy was later released early on suspended sentence.
When he then went back to reporting on the details of criminal acts, he was picked up by police who charged him with "breaching the peace." He was not charged by a grand jury, not tried or sentenced for this crime: simply by edict of a judge, without having been found guilty of a criminal act WHILE on suspended sentence, but by edict alone: had his suspended sentence redacted.
Edicts were handed out by a court which were artificially made legal by the creation of fundamentally unlawful laws which were not voted on and established by the elected legislative bodies: but by un-elected bureaucrats.
Those edicts were used to attempt to blackmail a private citizen, barring him from informing the public as to the truth of criminal acts. When he refused to be comply with that act of extortion: he was arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to jail, but later released as a further show of force and warning/threat. When Tommy again refused to comply with being blackmailed by the state and once again began reporting on the truth of criminal acts: the state made good on it's threats and has now incarcerated him.
-He was not indicted for a crime while on suspended sentence,
-He was not tried for a crime while on suspended sentence,
-He was not convicted of a crime while on suspended sentence,
That a suspended sentence can simply be redacted, without the aforementioned legal processes involved: at the arbitrary will of the state when they wish to inflict punishment on someone for failure to comply with their extortion scheme - is despicable at best and despotic at worst.
