Tommy Robinson has fled the UK after an alleged assault at London St Pancras train station.
The hard-right activist, 42, took a flight out of the country after being filmed walking away from the incident while a man lay motionless on the floor.
The British Transport Police said in a post on X that it was looking a 42-year-old ‘suspect’ from Bedfordshire, who ‘boarded a flight out of the country in the early hours of this morning.’
‘Detectives are continuing to work closely to progress the investigation and bring the man into custody for questioning,’ it added.
The alleged assault took place at around 8.40pm last night, and resulted in the alleged victim being taken to hospital with ‘serious injuries’.
Footage shared online shows Luton-born Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon – raising his arms in the air while walking away.
He is heard shouting: ‘He f*****g came at me, bruv… He come at me bruv, you saw that.’
Robinson had earlier shared a video of himself handing out flyers inside the train station for a ‘free speech’ protest on September 13.
It is not confirmed where Robinson has flown to but he is known to have previously lived in Spain before serving an 18-month sentence for contempt of court.
Sources told the Spanish Eye that he has an affinity with the town of Albir, near Benidorm.
It is from there where he filmed a series of podcast episodes and played host to far-right figures from around the world, including members of the Proud Boys.
Robinson first moved himself and his family to Spain in 2020, claiming that his life was at risk after allegedly receiving a number of death threats.
The founder of the English Defence League has been active on social media after landing today, reposting multiple posts on X.
One read: ‘It’s never good or acceptable to physically assault someone over their political views, the tweet said. ‘But lets looks at the context.
‘Tommy Robinson has been politically active and a well known figure for years. There’s countless video’s of people debating him, threatening him etc.
‘Shout and scream at him all you want, disagree with his views, debate him, argue with him… He’s not gonna punch or attack you. I’ve argued with him loads over the years and… guess what… never been attacked by him!
‘But there has to be a limit point and a boundary that’s in place, and that applies to anyone. We should all be safe in our personal space.
‘If you cross a line and attack someone physically, or threaten to attack them physically, then you can’t expect any response other than a strong one.
‘A pre-emptive strike is totally legal. To me it looks pretty clear. Tommy Robinson – controversial or not – was going about his business. Someone tried to attack him, and they came off worse.
‘I hope they’re ok and make a full recovery, but if you start a physical fight with someone – especially someone who won’t hesitate to protect themselves – you have to be willing to lose.’
Another reshared post said: ‘If you approach someone with hostility, a man that receives death threats daily, expect to get a clip round the ear hole.’
