Tommy Robinson, born Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon, adopted his pseudonym to conceal his identity and protect his family amid threats related to his activism. He has also used aliases such as Andrew McMaster, Paul Harris, Wayne King, and Stephen Lennon. The name "Tommy Robinson" was inspired by a well-known member of the Luton Town football hooligan firm, the MIGs. Robinson stated that he used a pseudonym because discussing Islam publicly had led to threats against him, including plots to murder him. He explained, "I tried to protect my name, because I wanted to protect my family" . Good Law Project+17Wikipedia+17The Times+17 The Times
Financially, Robinson has received substantial support from various sources, particularly in North America. In 2017, American billionaire Robert J. Shillman funded Robinson's fellowship at the Canadian website Rebel News, providing over $6,000 (£5,000) per month. The Middle East Forum, a U.S.-based think tank, contributed $60,000 (£47,000) towards his legal fees and organized rallies in his support. Additionally, Elon Musk reportedly agreed to cover Robinson's legal expenses, according to Robinson's representatives . The Times+1Wikipedia+1 Wikipedia POLITICO
Despite declaring bankruptcy in 2021 with debts amounting to £2 million, Robinson continues to maintain a public presence and lifestyle, raising questions about the sources and management of his funds. |
