🔴 TOMMY ROBINSON - INNOCENT & FULLY ACQUITTED

VERDICT & SENTENCING

VERDICT TOMMY ROBINSON ACQUITTED:

On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, at Westminster Magistrates’ Court, a significant legal ruling unfolded as District Judge Sam Goozee delivered a verdict in the case of activist Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

Arrested on July 28, 2024, at the Channel Tunnel under Schedule 3 of the Terrorism Act 2000 for refusing to provide police with the PIN to his phone, Robinson faced charges that could have led to imprisonment.

The two-day trial, concluded last month, scrutinized the lawfulness of the police stop, with the defense arguing it was a discriminatory “fishing expedition” based on Robinson’s political beliefs.

The judge’s detailed findings, delivered this morning at 10:38 AM GMT, culminated in Robinson’s acquittal, marking a pivotal moment in the case and sparking varied reactions in the courtroom.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

•Acquittal Confirmed: Tommy Robinson has been acquitted of all charges related to the Terrorism Act 2000, following the judge’s ruling that the stop was unlawful.

•Police Conduct Questioned: The judge’s findings highlighted significant issues with police testimony and procedural delays, raising concerns about the misuse of counter-terrorism powers.

•Influence of Beliefs: The court determined that Robinson’s arrest was influenced by his protected political beliefs, not evidence of terrorism.

•Public Response: The public gallery’s enthusiastic reaction contrasted with the subdued demeanor of some media present, reflecting divided opinions on the outcome.

•Next Steps Uncertain: While acquitted, discussions may arise regarding potential investigations into police conduct or compensation claims by Robinson.
