Tommy Robinson appears in court facing harassment charges over journalists

Tommy Robinson attended a Crown Court hearing, confirming his identity after previously pleading not guilty to alleged harassment of two journalists.

Robinson, dressed in a dark blue suit and black tie, entered the courtroom and only stated his name. He faces accusations of using X posts and direct messages to threaten journalists, including a claim that he said he would visit one reporter’s home. The charges allege that his communications caused the victims to fear violence.

Why it matters

The trial highlights legal limits on online threats and the accountability of public figures for harassment.
