Tommy Robinson escorted from London antisemitism march as thousands gather


Far-right leader Tommy Robinson has been escorted by the Metropolitan Police after he turned up at the major march against anti-semitism in central London today. 

It had been feared that Robinson, the founder of the English Defence League, could disrupt the protest organised by the charity Campaign Against Antisemitism.

In the days leading up to today’s march, the protest organisers had told Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, to stay away.

Dozens of police at the march crowded around Robinson, who was seen arguing with officers outside the Soho coffee shop opposite the Royal Courts of Justice.

He was then led away from the scene.
