Who is Tommy Robinson? Gardaí closely monitoring movements of far-right agitator 

Tommy Robinson arrives at Westminster Magistrates' Court in London in October 2021 for a hearing regarding the stalking of a journalist.

Security services are monitoring the movements of Tommy Robinson who has travelled to Ireland to make a “documentary” on anti-refugee protests, amid fears his presence could inflame an increasingly tense situation.

The notorious English far-right agitator, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley Lennon, has posted a video from what might be a hotel or guesthouse in Dublin in which he said he has been around the city “saying hello to family members”.
