I know Thom - I wont lie, I have never met him but we had interactions in relation to some forums we were both involved in. Mens clothes forums and the murky world within.
I have an awful lot of stuff to stay about Thom, however I am unsure if I can be bothered. I will say this though, he is a cunt.
I used to co run a forum called The Greenwich barber which was at it's core blokes talking clothes but as most things do it had genral sections and other chat was prevalent.
I want to say this thread is an exact mirror of a few threads on TGB. The Brexit thread, politics thread, Jeremy Corbyn thread. All hijacked by Thom and his passive/aggressive insults, his boring far right tropes dressed up progressive thinking and his continual use of Sarah Haider, Sowell et al. Exactly the fucking same. It is like a mirror.
The posts by intelligent people pointing out the inaccuracies of his points and opinions and how is he is a racist islamaphobe (dont ask for evidence Thom as my insults will insult you) and his deflection and straw man arguments in response.
I recal once Thom phoned me, I was on the M5 as it goes heading into Birmingham with my wife and kids. He was blubbing and snotting down the phone as some lads of another forum had bricked his windows (I know, I told you it was murky). I reassured him, told him to call the police and it would be Ok and a few years later I find myself the victim of his hilarious Insta stories as I called him out as a racist Islamophobia. Fat Brummie Dan eating scratchings I think was his angle. I never actually saw them. Thing is he was factualy correct in some ways, My name is Dan and I am fat, well portly or stout, and I do like scratchings but I am from Dover. Anyhoo. Where was I. I am not sure if I am honest. I am rifing this, not really planned it.
Ok - I have some screen shots and stuff to post if I can - I am a bit of a luddite if I am honest.
He did an IV with Albion a few years ago - I think that is a cycling thing, anyway he did the full Ratner as he's a twat.

You can find the IV here - it has been archived, or deleted, I am unsure.
This is the pertinent bit.
"The future of the steel industry in the UK is increasingly uncertain, with stiff competition from foreign imports. What’s your view, and the view of the people you work with, of the challenges facing the steel industry in this country?
Of all the political discussions I find myself in, the steel one isn’t one that particularly engages me. As long as the steel is made here in Sheffield and the production of the Mamnick products employs people who have since become friends, then I’m happy. As time has gone on, I have become increasingly proud of the job I do.
Full fucking Ratner - twat.
I'll just wack a few images up and you can hae a look - featuring another twitter account he had.
In short, and has been mentionjed he is an odious twat with a set of values that Enoch Powell would blush at. I am adamant he sets himself up at a computer with a big fuck off Tommy Robinson flow chart at the ready to respond to all these accusations, questions and outright disbelief that is leveled at him.
He is like terminator - he wont stop - he is unstoppable far right evil that has no off switch - ban him and ban his IP address.
Oh - he also took to hijacking other peoples accounts soit looked like he has support - mods may want ot consider that.
Right - I am going to look for your grand tour threads and monuments threads - you do have those don't you?
