Moment Tommy Robinson is ARRESTED in Canada on ‘immigration offence’ after speaking at right-wing event

TOMMY Robinson has been arrested in Canada on suspicion of an immigration offence after giving a speech.

The far right-wing figure was held on Monday before being released, having been ordered to stay in the country and hand in his passport, he said.

Robinson was apparently held over an ‘immigration offence’

Footage posted online showed him being handcuffed and led to the back of a waiting car.

Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley Lennon, announced his arrest on X, formerly Twitter.

He said: “None of this makes sense, I’m now detained in Calgary, prevented from leaving the city, these conditions stop me from continuing my tour of Canada and meeting with guests for podcasts.

“I’m not even allowed to leave to travel home.”

The 41-year-old had been booked to speak in three Canadian cities by an outlet called Rebel News.

Ezra Levant from Rebel News made appeals on X for donations to cover Robinson’s legal fees.

Video shows Robinson asking an officer: “What have I got a warrant out for?”

They reply: ‘You’ve got an outstanding immigration warrant, we’ll talk about it in the vehicle.’ 

He is then put in the car and driven away – before he appears to have later been released.
