Tommy Robinson has had his verdict delayed because he is going to fly to Israel ‘as a guest of the government’.
Robinson, 42, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, has been accused of failing to comply with counter-terror powers as he was stopped from driving to Benidorm at the Channel Tunnel in Folkestone in July last year.
The 42-year-old specifically refused to give officers the PIN to unlock his phone, Westminster Magistrates Court heard.
Police said they grew suspicious of Robinson due to his ‘vague replies’ about what he was doing and demanded access to his iPhone under Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act.
