Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon…

Always worth pointing out that his Urist McNormalguy pseudonym is as much of a lie as everything else dribbling out of his mouth.

He used to own a tanning salon in Luton

I thought he hated brown people

What is it with right wingers changing their names? JD Vance is another one. James Donald Bowman is his real name. Why did he choose to change his name while keeping his first 2 initials and why the hell did he choose to change his last name to Vance? Weird fascist people stuff i guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

FYI, Tommy Robinson was the name of an infamous football hooligan. Stephen Yakity-Sax wanted a more macho name, so he appropriated it.

I want a journalist (or anyone) to ask him on camera if Elon Musk’s dick tastes like Trump’s arsehole.
