Tommy Robinson boosts smear campaign against Scottish father

A Scottish father has been smeared online after he stood up to an anti-migration protest in his area. Among those smearing him is the notorious racist agitator Tommy Robinson:

Far right thug Tommy Robinson was one of the highest profile Twitter accounts who pushed this video, falsely accusing this innocent brown British man of filming children in a park and now making him fear for his life.

Any comment @elonmusk? Are you ok with this? https://t.co/d4pJot7tSC

Smear and loathing

The man Robinson and others smeared was the 43-year-old Quroum Beg – a fourth-generation Scotsman.

Beg staged an impromptu counter-demonstration against an anti-migration protest, which swept through his area. In response, the protesters targeted Beg with racist abuse.

As STV news reported:

Mr Beg said he was made aware of an approaching demonstration in the nearby streets while he was at the park with his family.

All of those in the park, including Mr Beg, left the area. After returning his children home, he then made his way back to the park to stage a counter-protest.

Beg told the protesters:

I’m not afraid of you, keep on walking

The police advised Beg not to engage with the protest, with the father subsequently walking away to sit on a swing. It was at this point the protesters began accusing Beg of filming children in the park, chanting “get him out”.

In other words, they didn’t like being challenged, and they resorted to the grimmest untruths to attack the man.

Robinson labelled the fourth-generation Beg an “invader”:

The tweet remains up at the time of writing, having gained 141k views. Robinson also has many other posts labelling people of colour “invaders”.

Beg has faced harassment since, telling STV:

These false narratives affect everything people do and their day-to-day lives.

It affects their families and everybody around them. People need to think if sharing these narratives online is something they are proud of.

I haven’t been able to sleep since then. People are sharing things all over the world, so I worry about people recognising me without seeing the full context of what happened around it.

Robinson

Robinson has form when it comes to smearing people of colour to further his fascist, far-right ideology.

Famously, Robinson lost a libel case after he told lies about a Syrian refugee – who was also a child no less, and who had suffered a vicious attack.

Robinson recently lied about his libel loss, which is what you’d expect, isn’t it, because the guy’s a f*cking liar, isn’t he:

Tommy Robinson was allowed to rewrite history completely unchallenged in a friendly interview.

While discussing his libel loss over the Syrian schoolboy, Tommy fired off a series of claims that simply don’t stand up to scrutiny:

This isn’t even the only person of colour Robinson has smeared this week:

We know the woman in this video (who was rescuing the seagull). So we’d recommend you remove this post and apologise for your anti-Muslim, racist tirade.

As Maddison Wheeldon reported for the Canary:

One of Britain’s self-styled “patriots” shared the video, with many claiming the woman was catching the bird to eat it – parroting the same racist theories that falsely accused immigrants in the US of eating pets.

However, Mubarak was actually doing a good deed in rescuing the seagull that had fallen from a roof. More footage shows her working with other locals – white locals, for the record – to reunite the gull with its mother.

Robinson also incited white riots earlier this year; the sort of thing these ‘anti-migrant protests’ inevitably turn into:

I wrote this – I think he’ll struggle to make a case for his income or reputation being damaged given that his income is reliant on him begging for money on the back of doing racist things https://t.co/qDEz7AnWt7

Problem

Tommy Robinson and the racist sh*theads he stirs up are a scourge on this country.

To be clear, people aren’t wrong to feel like Britain is broken; they’re also not wrong to think that they’ve been shafted, or to acknowledge that their circumstances keep getting worse.

They are wrong to blame people of colour for the problems caused by the rich, though. And they’re especially wrong to spread lies as soon as they face any sort of pushback.
