Tommy Robinson has been arrested outside a child grooming trial for allegedly breaching the peace. The co-founder of EDL livestreamed 'reports' from outside Leeds Crown Court for an hour this morning. He showed men entering the court on Facebook until he was approached by officers telling him to stop. In a separate video, the far-right activist is filmed being led away by police, arresting him for an alleged breach of the peace and incitement.
'This is ridiculous, I haven't said a word. I've done nothing.' He's then filmed asking the police officers if he's being arrested on 'contempt of court'. Before he's bundled into the van, he says: 'Someone laid their hand and assaulted me outside court.
Robinson is already under a suspended sentence over contempt of court at a gang rape trial in Canterbury last year. People or newspapers can be in 'contempt of court' when they create a 'substantial risk' of prejudicing on ongoing court case. It is a criminal offence that can land people in jail.
