Tommy Robinson has been arrested outside a child grooming trial for allegedly breaching the peace. The co-founder of EDL livestreamed ‘reports’ from outside Leeds Crown Court for an hour this morning.

In a separate video, the far-right activist is filmed being led away by police, arresting him for an alleged breach of the peace and incitement.
