Tommy Robinson threatens to ‘punch head off’ former Sikh ally

Tommy Robinson is a far-right agitator who’s led street movements like the English Defence League (EDL) and Unite the Kingdom (UtK). While Robinson’s propaganda has shifted over the years, the common throughlines have been Islamophobia and the fear of migrants. As these prejudices aren’t unique to white Brits, there are some people from minority groups who have thrown in with Robinson and his ilk. Now, one of the Sikh men who supported Robinson in the past is being warned to watch his back. Short story: Bobby Singh, who twerks for Tommy Robinson, is now being threatened by Tommy Robinson. “If I personally see Bobby Singh, I’ll personally punch his fucking head off.” pic.twitter.com/CKsdzy0Npv — Mukhtar (@I_amMukhtar) June 7, 2026 Robinson’s ex-mate Bobby Singh — who is he? Bobby Singh is the co-founder of Love Your Postcode, a real estate and property management company. Recently, Singh attended the far-right Unite the Kingdom rally (as Mukhtar highlighted in the video above), where he voiced his support for Robinson. He’s also reshared anti-Muslim posts from Robinson like the following: Because the above comes from Robinson — a known bullshitter and far-right propagandist — most people would ask themselves: Is this AI? Was it staged? Did it happen recently or years ago? The other thing to remember is that sometimes Muslim people commit crimes. This is true of every group. But smear merchants like Robinson give the impression that Muslims are uniquely bad by only highlighting crimes committed by them. Either Singh is willing to turn his brain off when he sees Islamophobic content or he lacks critical thinking skills. The controversy surrounding Singh Singh has now attracted controversy because of a TikTok panel in which he asked viewers to vote one “if you’re in support of the Singh” or two “if you’re in support of Henry”. From context, it’s clear that the men in question are the murderer Vickrum Digwa and his victim Henry Nowak (most baptised Sikh men have the surname ‘Singh’, but Digwa does not). The video attracted greater controversy because at one point another man asks to change the vote, stating: Can you put a 1 in the comments if I should piss on Henry’s grave, and a 2 if I should shit on his grave. Singh has since claimed the backlash is a ‘character assassination’, and that while he was on the TikTok panel, he doesn’t agree with everything that was said. Bobby Singh has RESPONDED to the live TikTok video circulating online. In it, he shared a panel with someone who asked: “should I shit or piss on Henry Nowak’s grave?” The video also shows him agreeing that “Henry is wearing a turtleneck, so he means trouble,” and endorses… pic.twitter.com/V5Vo7xP5Ky — Sydney Jones (@SydneyJones_) June 7, 2026 Regardless of whether Bobby Singh made the worst comments or not, it was clearly in poor taste to ask viewers to vote on which man they backed. Digwa murdered Nowak with an illegal weapon, and then he fooled the police into thinking Nowak was the aggressor. Digwa’s actions, then, contributed towards a situation in which Nowak was handcuffed while bleeding out (with the other factor being police incompetence). Dis-unite the Kingdom Ironically, Love Your Postcode says the following about itself: Our commitment to community cohesion and philanthropy is interwoven with a passion for business, inspiring others to lead with confidence and a sense of social responsibility. We say, ironically, because co-founder Singh attended Robinson’s Unite the Kingdom rally, this now-yearly event isn’t committed to “community cohesion” at all. We say that because it promotes “remigration”. Speakers at the first event included the Dutch Generation Remigration. The Canary wrote this about the group: Well, they’re the leading proponents of ‘remigration’, which is the plan to mass deport migrants and their descendants from European countries. We’re not quite sure how that will work in Britain given the continuous influxes of populations we’ve experienced since the Roman Empire, except we are sure, obviously – they’re talking about deporting Black and brown people. Generation Remigration did not attend the 2026 UtK event. No doubt because key member, Eva Vlaardingerbroek, was banned from entering the UK earlier this year. Robinson has kept the ethnic cleansing torch burning, anyway, and regularly posts about “remigration” himself. Take this from 12 May: Invaders and their offspring, tormenting and brutally attacking our people in Europe and filming it “for fun” and to assert dominance. Remigration and de-islamisation can’t come quick enough. You’ll note Robinson calls for “remigration” and “de-Islamification”. He’s doing this to make it clear it won’t just be Muslims who go. You’ll also notice he’s not saying something like ‘deport the non-indigenous Brits‘. This is because the in-group currently includes all white Europeans. This won’t last, of course, and we only have to look back to 2016 to see when the far right was actively hostile towards continentals — most notably Polish people. Clearly, to anyone smart enough to read between the lines, Bobby Singh isn’t in the in-group, so why was Robinson promoting him before this latest controversy? And why was Singh promoting Robinson? Singh and Robinson: Bedfellows To Robinson, there’s an obvious benefit to tolerating a guy like Bobby Singh. Specifically, he can point at him and say: “See, how can I be racist when I’m best mates with this guy?” The answer is obvious, and it’s that in this case, the two are friends because of racism, specifically racism against migrants, which seems to be Singh’s beef if his retweets are anything to go by. In modern Britain, establishment politicians like Nigel Farage warn ‘All migrants are bad‘ and their supporters hear ‘All Muslims are bad‘. Inevitably, this becomes ‘All Black and Brown people are bad‘, because believe it or not, the white rioters shown below aren’t the best at identifying cultural signifiers; they just see a person’s skin colour and lose their minds. Dozens of bricks being thrown pic.twitter.com/VwPXkfZlmR — Taj Ali (@Taj_Ali1) June 2, 2026 Unless you’re a white British man, a guy like Robinson will always always turn on you at some point. But for some, their desire to punch downwards overrides their instincts for self-preservation. To be fair, what Singh said was obviously grim, but Singh isn’t the only Sikh man facing backlash from the far-right. Sikhs at a London remembrance march describe their fears and report a rise in abuse following Henry Nowak’s murder. https://t.co/Zl3K65O6Kq pic.twitter.com/WB5y5UwmnD — Sky News (@SkyNews) June 7, 2026 Nigel Farage has retweeted JD Vance’s tweet, calling British Sikhs “mass invasion of migrants.” Like I said the other day. Look how quickly they turned on the Sikh community. pic.twitter.com/1eGb1WYbnb — Mukhtar (@I_amMukhtar) June 6, 2026 In-fighting Known white supremacists like James Goddard are repeating the following: Deport the Sikhs It should be noted Robinson is still defending Sikhs despite a significant proportion of his far-right followers turning on them. About 535,000 Sikhs live in the UK (around 0.8% of the population). The Sikhs aint taking over our towns or cities, or even the UK for that matter you fucking moron. They integrate and add value, they love, respect and do fight for our country. Sikhs are not… https://t.co/bv5Qa4IUwp — Tommy Robinson (@TRobinsonNewEra) June 4, 2026 You’re a disingenuous shithouse. Fuck you and your framing. Nobody said we should “give up our homeland to Sikhs”, own it dickhead. — Tommy Robinson (@TRobinsonNewEra) June 4, 2026 Lest we forget, Robinson literally calls for “remigration”. Clearly he doesn’t actually respect Sikhs; he’s just using them as cover for his Islamophobia. What this shows, anyway, is that it’s impossible to maintain tactical positions on the reactionary far right. There will always be those who are willing to go further, and they will always find themselves arguing from a stronger position because the logical end point of this ideology is a patriarchy of indigenous whites. An odd one One final thing to note about Bobby Singh is that he’s not completely deluded about the white supremacist movement he’s attached himself to. In a video which appears to have been filmed at Unite the Kingdom, Singh said: And by the way, just for the record, just for the record, lads. If they do go back and you ask me to go back, I wouldn’t have a fucking issue…There is no greater honour than going back to a country where it’s your real people of your colour. So what I’m saying is, mate, I’m patriotic, but if you ever want to say to me, ‘Bobby, your time’, I’m more than happy. It’s not good that Singh — or anyone — feels this way. Every British citizen who isn’t 100 years old grew up in a multicultural country. The problems we’ve faced since then don’t arise from that fact; they arise from rich people stealing all of Britain’s wealth while blaming minority groups as cover. Speaking as a white Briton, believe me, skin colour is no indicator of individuals being “your real people”. The people I have the least in common with in this country are the white identitarians who line up behind Tommy Robinson. If such people ever take power, I’ll be doing everything I can to move to a country that doesn’t treat skin colour as the defining characteristic. Although Bobby Singh may not have an issue, you have to assume foreign countries would object to us banishing millions of European-born citizens into their territories. This might surprise people who think the British Empire never ended, but we actually don’t have the right to dump people wherever we like. This is especially true when it comes to nuclear powers like India and Pakistan. The few It’s important to re-emphasise that guys like Bobby Singh are a minority of a minority. Most Sikhs don’t support a movement which will inevitably come for them. At the same time, most would never willingly volunteer to be deported to a country they weren’t born in. Singh being ex-communicated from the British far right was predictable. The same thing will happen to every other person who isn’t a member of the core inner group because this movement is only heading in one direction.

Why are so many Democrats going quiet on climate change?

As the midterm elections approach, something strange has happened: Democratic politicians who once talked about climate change as the defining crisis of our time now barely mention it at all. The phrase has begun disappearing from their speeches, social media posts, and podcast appearances. The main exception is Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, a Rhode Island Democrat who has given some version of his “Time to Wake Up” speech on the dangers of climate change more than 300 times over the past decade and a half. He’s accused “climate hushers” of pushing the party to stop talking about the overheating planet. If you had to pinpoint the moment that “climate hushing” began, the 2024 presidential election would be the obvious contender. After President Donald Trump beat former Vice President Kamala Harris in all seven swing states, Democrats were left scrambling to figure out where they went wrong. One popular theory was that they were too busy harping on social justice and planetary problems at the expense of everyday concerns voters cared more about, like the rising cost of living. Whitehouse, however, sees global warming as a piece of that conversation, rather than a distraction from it. “Climate change is right now raising costs for families across the country through higher property insurance premiums, grocery and electric bills, and health care expenses,” Whitehouse said in a statement to Grist. The idea that talking about climate change is a liability for Democrats has become conventional wisdom. Last year, the Democrat-aligned think tank Searchlight Institute issued the advice “Don’t say climate change.” A recent op-ed in The New York Times concluded, “When it comes to climate change, for now, it might be better to say nothing at all.” An early draft of the Democratic National Committee’s autopsy report of the 2024 election, released under pressure in May, posited that messages about climate change and shifting to green energy “created anxiety among workers in traditional industries worried about job losses.” “It’s very zeitgeisty to assume right now that it’s really important not to talk about climate, or that Democrats have paid a political cost for talking about climate,” said Matto Mildenberger, a professor of political science at the University of California, Santa Barbara. But there’s no hard evidence that discussing climate change hurts Democrats in elections, Mildenberger and other experts told Grist. If anything, it rewards candidates with a modest boost among voters, studies and surveys show. The basis for thinking that Democrats should avoid the subject comes from polls asking voters about their top priorities: Climate change ranks number 24 out of 25 when Americans are asked which issues will be very important to their vote, according to data from the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication last year. That’s mainly because other concerns have risen in importance, with liberal Democrats more concerned about things like protecting democracy, government corruption, and the treatment of immigrants than before the 2024 election. It’s a logical leap, however, to assume that talking about climate change is a political liability simply because voters don’t name it as one of their top issues. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse speaks during a Senate Committee on Finance confirmation hearing in 2025. Andrew Harnik / Getty Images Some commentators argue that you can achieve climate action just by getting Democrats elected, regardless of whether they’re bringing it up. But deemphasizing climate change as part of their political platform could have long-term consequences: Without real discussion of it, you lose momentum for action and send a signal that it’s not important. “You actually need to have conversation and attention to an issue to slowly build the coalition and policy work necessary to address it,” Mildenberger said. In effect, Democrats are ceding rhetorical ground to their opponents, he argues, even as polling shows that Trump’s agenda — blocking the construction of wind farms, scrubbing public information about global warming from government websites, and pulling the U.S. out of the Paris climate agreement — is broadly unpopular. “All of this is, frankly, doing the service of the fossil fuel industry, ultimately, because it’s helping climate delay,” Mildenberger said. Whitehouse has argued that Democrats are “poll-chasing,” parroting what voters say they want to hear with bland, backward-looking messages. “Many Americans don’t believe Democrats are fighters,” Whitehouse said. “The best way to shed that label is to actually step into the arena and fight. Our climate messaging has long been terrible, but it would be malpractice to shy away from a fight with Central Casting villains (the fossil fuel industry climate denial fraud and dark money corruption operations) with such high stakes for the economic well-being of American families.” As people in the U.S. struggle with rising costs and surging gas prices, oil giants are raking in billions from the Iran war, a dissonance that Democrats could tap into. Matt Burgess, an economist at the University of Wyoming who studies how to find common ground on the environment, agrees with the broader sentiment that Democrats alienated voters on cultural issues and lost sight of concerns around affordability, and that progressive messaging about climate change was a piece of that. But he said it’s wrong to assume that climate change is a losing issue. “There are lots of different lines of evidence that suggest that climate change as an issue overall helps the Democrats and hurts Republicans,” Burgess said. A study he co-authored in 2024 found that in a hypothetical world in which climate change hadn’t been an issue in the 2020 election, Republicans could have gained somewhere around a 3-percent swing in the popular vote, enough to hand the White House to Trump instead of Joe Biden. “If you have any issue that moves the needle a little bit in your favor in a super-close election, it can make the difference between winning and losing,” Burgess said. Exit polling suggests there’s little reason to believe that climate change was a problem for Democrats in 2024, as opposed to other issues playing a larger role. Swing voters considered “U.S. efforts to fight climate change” a reason to support Harris over Trump by 21 points, according to a survey of 5,000 voters from Navigator Research just before and after the election. Trump won by large margins on inflation, the economy, and immigration — concerns that were top-of-mind for voters. “The very simple version is, Trump winning those voters won the election,” said Bryan Bennett, who runs the independent consulting practice Loft Beck strategies, advising Democrats and progressives, and who directed the post-election survey in his previous role at Navigator. Harris, in other words, didn’t lose because she mentioned climate change a few times, or even because Democrats passed climate policies under the Biden administration. Federal investments in infrastructure and manufacturing projects were, on a county level, linked to a very small improvement in the vote share for Harris, an analysis from the Center for American Progress found. If anything, the problem was that voters didn’t know enough about the federal government’s involvement to give the administration credit. Read Next The planet is overheating. Why is the news looking away? Kate Yoder Even if climate change is not an electoral problem for Democrats, they might have other reasons for staying quiet about it. The media ecosystem now is fractured, with many people getting their news from TikTok, YouTube, and podcasts as opposed to traditional news sources, meaning that it’s harder than ever for politicians to make their preferred narrative heard, Bennett said. In recent years, the Democratic Party has gotten more serious about “message discipline,” the practice of sticking with a central message, to try to cut through the noise. “So much of the oxygen in the room is taken up by, ‘How do Democrats deal with, and how do progressives deal with, talking about the economy in a way that really meets voters where they are?’” Bennett said. “And I think that inherently detracts from basically every other issue, regardless of whether it’s a good thing to talk about or not.” The Democratic politicians who are still mentioning climate change have tended to do so indirectly, arguing that clean energy is “cheap energy” and tying it to rising electricity bills. Polling suggests that voters have an appetite for more: Last fall, 41 percent of those surveyed by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication said they wanted political candidates to talk about efforts to reduce global warming more often, almost double the number who wanted to hear about it less. The trend of climate-hushing could stem from a misperception: Studies show that politicians and the public at large tend to vastly underestimate Americans’ appetite for taking action on climate change, from carbon taxes to expanding renewable energy. “We have this tension where, I think, empirically, talking about climate change provides a net benefit. It’s a very small net benefit, but it is a net benefit,” Mildenberger said. “But we have a discourse that somehow says that it’s this massive cost.” This story was originally published by Grist with the headline Why are so many Democrats going quiet on climate change? on Jun 8, 2026.
