Tommy Robinson ‘has fled the country’ after playing ‘libellous’ film to thousands of protesters at Trafalgar Square rally, High Court hears

Tommy Robinson has ‘fled the country’ after committing ‘flagrant’ contempt of court relating to a film played at a protest in central London, the High Court has been told.

Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was due to appear at the Royal Courts of Justice on Monday for a hearing in his latest contempt of court case but was not in attendance.

The Solicitor General launched legal action against Robinson in June over an alleged breach of a court order after he lost a libel battle in 2021.
