Tommy Robinson claims he was arrested in Canada on suspicion of immigration offences after giving speech – as video shows far-Right activist ‘being led away in handcuffs’

Tommy Robinson has claimed he was arrested in Canada last night over an ‘outstanding immigration warrant’ after speaking at an event.

Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, appears to have been detained by officers outside the Carriage House Hotel and Conference Centre in Calgary.

Video footage showed the far-Right activist being taken away in handcuffs by a team of police as he laughed and protested that the arrest was ‘absolutely insane’.

He could be heard asking an officer: ‘What have I got a warrant out for?’ They replied: ‘You’ve got an outstanding immigration warrant, we’ll talk about it in the vehicle.’

Robinson was then put in a car and driven away. It appears the 41-year-old was later released, but he claims to have now been prevented from leaving Calgary.

The English Defence League founder later tweeted: ‘OK I’m free, well sort of. 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.’

MailOnline has contacted the Calgary Police Service for comment.

Robinson had been speaking at an event called ‘An Evening with Tommy Robinson’, organised by far-Right media website Rebel News and its founder Ezra Levant.

General admission tickets were CA$50 (£29), while a ‘VIP’ package including a ‘meet and greet’ with Robinson was on sale for CA$250 (£144).

He also had a speaking event booked in Edmonton tonight, with the exact location not revealed to ticket holders until this morning – but this is now in doubt.  Then this Sunday, Robinson also had a similar engagement in Toronto.

It comes one week after the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) in the UK filed papers on June 18 to begin potential contempt of court proceedings after Robinson allegedly breached an injunction in a libel case he lost.

  1. Calgarys curly-tailed wonder boys (and girls) following their Globalist masters orders. They follow in the footsteps of similar treacherous henchmen. They are cut from exactly the same evil cloth as the KGB, Gestapo, Stasi, etc. These Cowtown Henchporkers would be equally willing to run men, women, and children up crematorium chimneys as long as they are paid to do it. They are traitors to Alberta and Humanity.
