      He should be charged and put away for a long time for this. It’s vigilantism and reckless.

      Although “He was previously seen eating a chocolate bar and shouting at a large naval carrier” is a great line.

    2. At best this is criminal damage, which with endangering life can get a life sentence. If the CPS want to get cute they could also charge him with attempting this:

      https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Vict/24-25/100/section/17

      >Whosoever shall unlawfully and maliciously prevent or impede any person, being on board of or having quitted any ship or vessel which shall be in distress, or wrecked, stranded, or cast on shore, in his endeavour to save his life, or shall unlawfully and maliciously prevent or impede any person in his endeavour to save the life of any such person as in this section first aforesaid, shall be guilty of felony, and being convicted thereof shall be liable to be kept in penal servitude for life

      (that law has never been used, apparently)

    3. Who is Danny Tommo and why is his name everywhere all of a sudden? Feel like I’d never seen the name before until a few weeks ago

      Sounds like he’s skirting very close to attempted murder with that. What a stupid dickhead.

      Imagine what would happen to him if that dinghy sank while the French rescue worker was still on board and couldn’t be rescued by their colleagues.

      Can we designate him and his “Patriot” Platform as terrorists yet? We arrest grannies for holding signs yet he and his thugs are parading around unchallenged.

      If he carries on this sort of nonsense it will undoubtedly go too far and he’ll end up getting charged for something. I sincerely hope that nobody gets hurt in the process.

    7. Isnt this the same stupid prick who sunk his own boat? Hating the RNLI until he needs rescuing lol, what a bellend.

      This guy is a ticking time bomb waiting to happen. He’s absolutely going to go way too far with one of his stunts, cause serious injury or worse to someone and end up (back) in jail.

    9. pppppppppppppppppd on

      I much preferred not knowing who this numpty was a couple of weeks ago. Sounds like he needs to be locked up.

    10. Reminder that this thug was so stupid that he went to prison for kidnapping the wrong person. The judge’s sentencing remarks sum it up quite well for those who want to look

    11. >Daniel Thomas filmed himself on a live stream appearing to slash a dinghy carrying a rescue worker in the middle of the English Channel.

      Not that it would make it better, but note he did not attack an immigrant dingy or boat. He did not try to stop people coming to the UK – again, this would not be okay if he did.

      He specifically attacked a person who was not breaking any law or any rules. They were trying to save lives.

      And he put their lives at risk. Those people could sink. They could drown.

      And he filmed it. He gloated about it.

      This should be jail time.

      If he’s not stopped now he will get someone killed.

    12. The fact he hasn’t been arrested yet boggles the mind! Yet if someone’s gran sits with a sign against genocide they get dragged away. We are going backwards as a society.

      This idiot is going to be arrested and his goons are going to protest over ‘two tier policing’, aren’t they?

    14. Artificial-Brain on

      Considering he’s openly doing this on camera for the world to see there’s really something wrong if he doesn’t go down for this

    15. Imagine the hatred some people have on fellow human beings that they try to actively cause them to drown. 

    16. The longer he’s allowed to do this, without being arrested, the more encouraged other twats will be to follow suit. There isn’t any possible excuse you can give, for deliberately sinking a boat in the channel while someone is onboard.

      Just no hope for the human race while wankers like this exist.

    17. Those who support him really do not want to admit their endgame is just letting migrants drown. All the ‘We will send them back to France!’ is just a lie they tell to make them seem more reasonable.

      Those who volunteer for the RNLI are the absolute best of us. They risk their lives every day to help those in need, and they do it all in their spare time. It’s one of the things we should be most proud of as a nation, especially given our maritime history. Tommo and his ilk that attack life boats are cowardly scum, and the only place they belong is behind bars. They’re terrorists, plain and simple.
