"He has published two books, including one titled Muhammad's Koran: Why Muslims Kill for Islam. Robinson's criminal record is lengthy. It includes convictions for violence and financial and immigration frauds. He has been convicted for cocaine possession with intent to supply and for public order offences.

Stephen Yaxley-Lennon (Tommy Robinson), 42, is a British far-right activist who organised the Unite the Kingdom march in London and founded the English Defence League (EDL) in 2009 after losing a job following an assault on a police officer. The EDL was an Islamophobic organisation associated with frequent violence before fading after his 2013 departure. He rebranded as a journalist around 2017, worked with Rebel News, and campaigned against sexual grooming gangs from predominantly Asian backgrounds while accusing police of facilitating child rape. He warned of a mass migration threat, published provocative books, and holds multiple convictions for violence, fraud, drugs, stalking and contempt of court.
