Tommy Robinson (whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon) has been described as a racist and anti-Muslim activist by various sources. He co-founded the English Defence League (EDL), a group that has been associated with racist and Islamophobic chanting and violent protests.
Some of the reported statements and actions attributed to him include:
* Orchestrating "racist and violent protests."
* Making false claims about a Syrian refugee, leading to a libel lawsuit and a contempt of court sentence.
* Stating that "every single Muslim" in the UK "got away with" the 7/7 bombings, and apologizing for calling Islam a "fascist and violent" religion.
* Describing Islam as a "disease" and "threat to our way of life," and claiming that the "current refugee crisis is nothing to do with refugees. It's a Muslim invasion of Europe."
* Calling for a ban on "Muslim immigration."
* Being a member of the British National Party (BNP), which is described as a "Nazi" and "fascist" political party, from 2004-2005.
* Once describing Muslim babies as "time bombs" and threatening that "The Islamic community will feel the full force of the EDL."
Organizations like the Muslim Council of Britain have stated that he is "notorious for his racism and blatant Islamophobia." Anti-racism groups also describe him as "racist and Islamophobic."
