Tommy Robinson, aka Stephen Lennon, Arrested Under Terrorism Act After Trafalgar Square Protest
Jul 28, 2024, 11:32 AM
Tommy Robinson, also known as Stephen Lennon, a right-wing activist, has been arrested under the Terrorism Act 2000 following a large-scale protest in Trafalgar Square, London. The event, which drew tens of thousands of participants, featured the screening of a banned film. The protest, described as a 'patriotic rally,' turned violent, leading to the arrest of two men for grievous bodily harm. Robinson's detention has sparked controversy, with supporters claiming the arrest is an overreach of anti-terror laws and a response to his anti-immigration stance. Police used powers afforded to them under the Terrorism Act for the arrest. Robinson is also due to face contempt proceedings at the Royal Courts of Justice on Monday.
