A new contempt of court application has been lodged against Tommy Robinson over alleged breaches of a High Court order from 2021, the Attorney General's Office has said.
A new contempt of court application has been lodged against Tommy Robinson over alleged breaches of a High Court order from 2021, the Attorney General's Office has said.
The AGO said Robinson was served with the latest contempt application, made on behalf of Solicitor General Sarah Sackman, on his X account on Wednesday after the application was lodged on August 19. Robinson was first served with contempt proceedings in June, with the Solicitor General telling a previous court hearing that he 'knowingly' breached the order by having 'published, caused, authorised or procured' a film titled Silenced in May last year.
Adam Payter, representing the Solicitor General at the hearing in July, said that it was believed that following his release on unconditional bail, Robinson then left the country and that there 'was nothing to prevent him from doing so'.
