    Our article OAP BEATS UP TOMMY ROBINSON IN JAIL, 21 July 2019, reported that Tommy Robinson was ‘decked by a 70-year-old lag in the prison showers’. The information within this article was provided by a reliable source; however, on this occasion, the information proved to be unreliable. We did ask the MoJ to comment on the story, but they declined. The Governor of HMP Belmarsh has since provided an email confirming that Tommy Robinson was ‘not involved in any incidents of any type, and most definitely not involved in a fight /assault on or by another prisoner as described in our newspaper article at the time.’ We are happy to clarify the correct position and offer our apologies to Tommy Robinson (real name Stephen Yaxley Lennon) and his family.
