Political activist Tommy Robinson has been convicted of harassing two Daily Mail journalists.
A jury at Southwark Crown Court found the 43-year-old, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, guilty of two counts of harassment causing fear of violence.
The case concerned Robinson’s response to Daily Mail and Mail Online articles from August 2024, showing him on holiday in Cyprus while riots took place in England following the Southport murders.
The court had heard how Robinson, from Bedfordshire, used “bully-boy, intimidatory tactics” to frighten reporters Andrew Young and Jacob Dirnhuber, forcing them to employ security or leave home.
