Judge Sentences Tommy Robinson to 18 Months, Emphasizes ‘No One Is Above the Law’

In a decisive legal move, far-right activist Tommy Robinson was sentenced to 18 months in prison on charges of contempt of court. The sentence, handed down today, came as a result of Robinson’s unauthorized filming and distribution of footage involving a Syrian refugee, in violation of court rules.

Robinson, known for his provocative stance on immigration, attended a court hearing where he was sternly reminded by the judge that “no one is above the law.” The judge cited Robinson’s repeated disregard for legal boundaries as a serious threat to justice and to the privacy rights of those involved in the case.

Robinson’s latest sentence adds to a list of previous legal troubles, serving as a reminder that those with influence remain bound by the same laws as the rest of society. The judge’s words resonated clearly: “In our legal system, there are no exceptions.”
