Breaking news on Tommy Robinson’s jail sentence —

John, we did it: Tommy Robinson has been jailed for 18 months.

This is a major victory for more than 15,000 of us and our tireless campaigning to bring justice to this far right grifter.

We knew Tommy Robinson lied and broke a legal injunction — and together we proved it. This has taken years of investigations, research and people-power. Thank you for fighting this with us, John.

Can you chip in a few pounds to HOPE not hate today, to celebrate this massive moment and ensure we can bring more harmful individuals to justice together in the future?

I wanted to give you the news as soon as I could; here’s a recap of what’s happened:

In 2018, Stephen Yaxley Lennon known as — “Tommy Robinson” — made a vitriolic video targeting Syrian refugee, Jamal Hijazi, claiming he was a violent school bully.

Jamal strongly denied the allegation and took legal action. Tommy was ordered to pay Jamal damages, but declared bankruptcy to avoid paying.

He was also hit with a legal injunction stopping him from publishing his self-made documentary, Silenced. And told if he repeated any of these false claims, he could face prison.

But Tommy didn’t care. After a year of spouting his lies on podcasts, in April 2023 he premiered Silenced in Copenhagen. In May 2023, the documentary was published online and Tommy eagerly promoted it.

Incredibly, he claimed to have no knowledge or involvement in the film’s release, but the evidence stacked up. We tracked his movements and proved his involvement, even catching him in Cuba during the production.&nbsp;

Now, after years of evading arrest, he’s finally had his day in court. The judge gave him an 18 month sentence saying Tommy showed no remorse. Tommy Robinson thinks he’s untouchable. He’s made a career out of his hateful lies, sowing division and fear. But thanks to our relentless collective energy, justice has caught up with him.

Thank you for standing firm against hate with us, John. Let’s keep up this incredible momentum — can you donate today so we can keep investigating, infiltrating and campaigning to take down the far right in Britain?
