Far-right British activist Tommy Robinson on Sunday shared a cryptic post calling people to assemble in London but gave no further details.“The amount of people contacting me who are travelling from Ireland to London for September 13th is insane . We appreciate the support,” he posted on X.One user commented “Train tickets are booked for me gf & friends. And more friends say they are coming. Keep spreading the word,” sharing a picture of them wearing a t-shirt that read “September 13th London be there…enough is enough!!”Another user said “What is there on September 13th in London?’“Booked my tickets from Ireland yesterday. Meeting lads I’ve not seen for years. I wouldn’t miss this for the world,” another user commented.Robinson previously posted “the future belongs to patriots, nothing can stop what is coming.” It is unclear whether these two posts are related.Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon, better known as Tommy Robinson, 42, is known for his controversial statements, inflammatory views, and has a vocal presence on social media.He has previously been imprisoned for assault (2005), mortgage fraud (2014), and contempt of court offences (2019).Robinson presents himself as a whistleblower suppressed by the state, a narrative that has gained substantial online support, including public backing from Elon Musk. The latter reinstated Robinson’s X account earlier this year and substantiated his claims about establishment failures in prosecuting child exploitation cases.“Why is Tommy Robinson in a solitary confinement prison for telling the truth? He should be freed and those who covered up this travesty should take his place in that cell,” Musk said at the time.Robinson was initially a member of the far-right British National Party and in 2009, he co-founded the English Defence League (EDL) to protest the activities of a small Salafist group in Luton. While the movement claimed to oppose “Islamist fascism,” its influence waned in the early 2010s following revelations of ties to Norwegian mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik, who killed 77 people in July 2011, as per Le Monde.
