Labour Deputy Leader Tom Watson is furious Tommy Robinson's YouTube channel is exploding in popularity and he's demanding Google CEO Sundar Pichai ban him immediately.

"I have written to Google CEO @SundarPinchai calling on him, as a matter of urgency, to remove the YouTube page of Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, aka Tommy Robinson," Watson tweeted on Saturday.

While Watson's trying to use accusations of "racism" and "Islamophobia" to get Tommy Robinson banned, he's also trying to use accusations of "antisemitism" to oust the leader of his own party, Jeremy Corbyn:


This guy is a real piece of work.
