Tommy Robinson has been ordered to pay £100,000 ($137,500) to a Syrian schoolboy who was filmed being attacked at school, after losing a libel case.

Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, commonly known by his alias Tommy Robinson—was sued by Jamal Hijazi, 18, who was assaulted in the playground at Almondbury Community School in Huddersfield in October 2018.
