Contempt Application Filed Against Tommy Robinson

Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, faces a new contempt of court application for allegedly breaching a High Court order from 2021. The Attorney General's Office claims he repeated libellous allegations in six instances between June and July 2023, violating an injunction following a libel case he lost to a Syrian refugee. Robinson was served with the latest application via his X account after it was lodged on August 19, and this follows previous contempt allegations made against him. A court hearing regarding both applications is scheduled for October 28. Previously, a court hearing in London revealed that Robinson had left the country, complicating his legal situation.
