Far-right activist Daniel Thomas slashes dinghy in Channel with blade while rescue worker onboard

Danny Tommo is a man of the people so we should leave him alone!
For examples:
His quotes after he went to Belfast:
What I’ve witnessed in Belfast has given me the inspiration to realise that when everyone gets involved who’s committed, a change can be made. We are going to produce a patriotic army of thousands and thousands of English and British men that are done with protesting, done with walking down roads, and want to make a difference.
He started the Patriot Platform which publicly organised the Portsmouth mob but guess the police are too busy arresting the obviously more dangerous grannies who dare to hold up signs.
Maybe retract your last paragraph?

He was arrested after the fact for one specific action he filmed himself doing, and the blow up of this on social media and the news. My point is that he managed to bring together many masked and black clothed men together, which seemed to surprise the police, whereas he has been acting in plain sight the entire time so maybe they are not focussing on these true acts of terrorism that's been happening all across the country for some time.
When I hear about this stuff it stinks of gestures - "vice signalling" - rather than any genuine desire to do anything. He wants to look like a big man waving his knife around, so he waits until any risk of conflict is over, then whips out his tool and uses it ineffectually... but oh, by that point someone has got back in the boat, and he demonstrates he's still willing to endanger them.
I bet his followers don't see it like that though - bet they see this as brave, masculine and sending a message.
Cunt.
The noise of escaping air was audible, and Thomas shouted: “This is England. This is not France any more.”
Thomas had presumably recently updated his slogan.

In January 2026, Thomas was one of 10 British nationals banned from entering France for engaging in anti-migrant vigilantism with the group Raise the Colours.[13]
I saw a video where he was talking about this. He said something along the lines of "we headed back to shore and ran out of fuel then, um, you know." Then switched topic and totally moved over that part.
I would find it hilarious if the RNLI had to tow their boat back to shore. But it shows how dumb these people are.

Do you think reality has kicked in for him now?

The guy endangered a worker, he’s a violent thug.
I hope you mean attesting these terrorists.
I have a few thoughts.
-For the small DIY boats that are a risk. This doesn't look like one. It looked more like a professionaly built craft. Perhaps it's stolen or bought on the cheep but traffickers don't like cutting into there profits for safety or sustainability.
-it doesn't look like anyone is on it other than someone in full rescue gear. There is something on the floor but it doesn't even look like life jackets. Where are the migrants?
The best way to "stop the boats" is to allow asylum applications while not on British soil. So they can take a ferry or a plane. It's a catch 22 if you are in France but want to get to the UK.

Attempted murder, or reckless endangerment?
