Tommy Robinson cleared of terror offence after not giving police access to his phone

Far-right activist Tommy Robinson has been found not guilty of a terror offence after refusing to give police access to his phone in July 2024.

The 42-year-old, who was charged under his real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was stopped by officers at the Channel Tunnel in Folkestone while driving a friend’s silver Bentley to Benidorm, Spain.

Robinson refused to give officers the Pin to his phone during the stop, arguing that the device contained confidential journalistic material.
