Hi John,

Today we can reveal that Tommy Robinson:  

  • raised over £3 million in donations and book sales in the years immediately before declaring he was bankrupt. He has continued to fundraise throughout his ‘bankruptcy’ but has not declared any of this income to the bankruptcy officials.
  • has tried to cover his tracks by removing many videos and posts showing him fundraising and travelling abroad.
  • got divorced as part of his wider effort to place assets out of the reach of his creditors.

All of this was to avoid paying what he owes to Jamal Hijazi, a Syrian refugee he libelled.

This and other astonishing revelations are detailed in our devastating dossier on Robinson’s sham bankruptcy, which we have just sent to the Insolvency Practitioner (you can see how the report looks at the bottom of this email). Based on our evidence, which runs to 240 pages and proves Robinson has broken the law on multiple occasions, we’re hopeful that this process will lead to criminal proceedings being brought against him. We’ll keep you updated on these developments.

Thanks so much to everyone who donated, shared on social media and sent us new leads about Robinon’s finances as part of this campaign. We’ve been working around the clock to pull together everything we know about Robinson’s dodgy dealings - you can find out more in our new blog which outlines the latest revelations. 

I’m incredibly proud of this investigation. I’ve been tracking Robinson for years, but the scale of what we’ve uncovered in these last few weeks has still surprised me. This is the best shot we will ever get to secure justice for Jamal and hold Robinson accountable for the hate he spreads.

Thank you for everything you do.

Nick
