Trump State Dept welcomes violent criminal and fraudster who tried to enter US with false passport
Of course, to be allowed into the USA with a conviction list that long, and specifically for breaking US immigration law, you don't just have to be Northern European white, you have to be an extreme-right rabble-rouser. Only true soulmates of Trump can get away with that.
MPs condemn hosting of Tommy Robinson by Trump administration
The far-right activists trip came amid calls for the US to be included in a probe into foreign interference in UK politics
The hosting of Tommy Robinson by the Trump administration has been condemned by British MPs amid calls for the US to be included in a probe into foreign interference in UK politics.
The far-right activist, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, is being feted in the US, where he met figures including a political appointee at the Department of State in Washington DC and a congressman.
The visit has prompted questions about how Robinson a former member of the extreme-right British National party and a leader in recent decades of street protests that have often turned violent was able to overcome a previous ban on entering the US.
Given his criminal convictions include for fraud, violence, drug possession and attempting to enter the US in 2012 using a false passport it is highly likely that US authorities will have intervened to allow him to enter on a discretionary basis.
