A judge has rejected a plea by an anti-refugee activist charged with "incitement to hatred" to be allowed back on social media.

Following an investigation by the Garda Special Detective Unit (SDU), Graham Carey, 39, of Dunsink Drive, Finglas, Dublin, was charged in February with an offence under section two of the Prohibition of Incitement to Hatred Act.
