Tommy Robinson’s been arrested in Canada and everyone made the same joke (and it’s simply glorious)
Tommy Robinson – AKA Stephen Yaxley-Lennon – has been arrested in Canada on his way to do a podcast tour, with footage of the far-right activist being handcuffed and led to the back of a waiting car going wildly viral.

The far-right activist was released on Monday but has been ordered to stay in the country and hand in his passport.
And it wasn’t just his arrest that made people’s day better, it was the reason why – on suspicion of an immigration offence – and these people surely said it best.

I’m hearing he’s been arrested for being an illegal immigrant. Is this true? Because if it is, the Lord of Irony will be spaffing himself into a mummified husk right now. https://t.co/O6AXszoWaf

Good to see Canada demonstrating zero tolerance on radical extremists who violate their immigration laws. https://t.co/F2nUpMTpOM

Stephen Lennon (AKA Tommy Robinson) has been arrested in Canada on immigration violations. It appears that he entered the country claiming he had no convictions …..whereas of course he has loads.
He will claim to be the victim, but the truth is he lied. Simple as that https://t.co/ZLbUisIzZC

I love the very polite and most archetypal Canadian police detective in the lumberjack shirt. https://t.co/lcJMV8ShAp
