Tommy Robinson has been charged with a criminal offence after allegedly refusing to leave a march against anti-Semitism in central London at the weekend.

The Metropolitan Police said the 40-year-old, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley Lennon, is accused of failing to comply with a direction to leave an area and will appear in court on Jan 22.

Robinson was arrested near the Royal Courts of Justice, from where the demonstration began on Sunday, after organisers said he would not be welcome at the event.
