British anti-Islam activist Tommy Robinson was cleared on Tuesday of committing an offence under counterterrorism laws by refusing to give police his phone PIN, thanking billionaire Elon Musk who he said funded his defence. Robinson, 42, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, has become a flag-bearer for some British nationalists and one of Britain's most high-profile anti-migration campaigners.

He was stopped by police in July 2024 as he drove through border security at the Channel Tunnel train terminal in southeast England.
Prosecutors told London's Westminster Magistrates' Court at a trial last month an officer had become suspicious because of his demeanour, he was driving a high-value vehicle, a friend's silver Bentley, and was heading to Benidorm in southern Spain having only bought a ticket on the day.

Robinson, 42, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, has become a flag-bearer for some British nationalists and one of Britain’s most high-profile anti-migration campaigners.
To state his former name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, is a tell the writer is severely biased against Robinson.

>> British anti-war activist Tommy Robinson
Islam is a war plan
Charged with terrorism for not unlocking his phone. Guy knifes a dozen on a train, no terrorism charges.
> Tommy Robinson was cleared on Tuesday of committing an offence under counterterrorism laws <
This is just a pause, I’m sure. The British Deep State will certainly take another crack at Robinsin. As Stalin’s secret police chief Lavrentiy Beria famously said:
“Give me the man and I will give you the case against him.”
And remember...they claimed “these laws will never be used against regular citizens”.
Yeah...until they do when convenient.
Get the Muslims OUT of western countries.
I can’t believe how messed up the UK is now. Check this out, threatened with arrest for being “openly Jewish”. Welcome to Nazism in the UK

the so-called journalist is dead naming Tommy. I thought that was one of the worst things you could do? It is for the trans community, so why not the rest of us?
We’re at war. He knows it, we know it and HOW ‘BOUT THEM DODGERS!
I would say he is against some very specific behaviors. He seems to be against rape, and terrorism, and acid thrown in the face of young girls. Interesting that Reuters thinks this makes him anti-Islam.
> An even bigger tell is the fact that he called Robinson an “Anti-Islam activist”. <
Good catch. I must be getting older. I missed that completely.
damn straight !
Exactly. But you notice it is always mentionrd in articles written by orgs like Reuters.
These “journalists” are despicable.
Well, yes, he is. And that makes him evil to these jerks.
