for posting on the Far right platform TelegramSome of these are run by well-known individuals such as Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, known as Tommy Robinson, or former BNP leader Nick Griffin. But most operate under pseudonyms, sharing conspiracy theories, fascist or nazi rhetoric, and racist content. It seems they operate with near-impunity on the platform as they share cherry-picked news stories to their large audience, often alongside quotes from figures like Adolf Hitler or Oswald Mosley, and Islamophobic misinformation. Telegram’s approach to anonymity, privacy and verification makes the platform very attractive for far-right users. The app offers end-to-end encryption, making it near-impossible for anyone but the sender and the recipient to see messages. Regular users can decide their own screen name and change it regularly, without needing to prove their identity. Prof Feldman, who has worked with the CPS on far-right terrorism, said: “You have to look really hard for fascist and neo-nazi extremists who are minded to engage in political violence and not on Telegram.” He says there is a network of far-right groups on the platform who go by the collective name ‘Terrorgram.’ The group was listed as a proscribed terrorist organisation by the government in April 2024. www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=a0a6899a02f271e0980f1d5e2c6b7b65feb63fd541c8ffb319fff70971d09ac5JmltdHM9MTczMDU5MjAwMA&ptn=3&ver=2&hsh=4&fclid=19bb2552-da1d-666b-1042-31b8dbdf67bc&psq=charged+with+far+right+teorrorism+uk&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvbmV3cy91ay9ob21lLW5ld3MvcmlvdHMtdWstZmFyLXJpZ2h0LXRlbGVncmFtLWFwcC10ZXJyb3JncmFtLWIyNTkyNTEzLmh0bWw&ntb=1 |

The public are told higher education is good for our country and economy. Back in the 19c universities were built to support the industrial revolution in matters like science and mechanical engineering. Today things are very different. www.bbk.ac.uk/our-staff/profile/8009186/david-feldman |

found this seems to be what there holding Robinson on
The leader of the far-right political group Britain First has been found guilty of an offence under the Terrorism Act after refusing to give police access to his mobile phone on his return from a political trip to Russia.
Paul Golding, 38, was stopped at Heathrow by Metropolitan police officers on 23 October last year on his way back from Moscow. He refused to give the pin codes for an iPhone and Apple computer and was later charged with wilfully refusing to comply with a duty under Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act.
Golding denied the charge but was found guilty following a trial at Westminster magistrates court in London on Wednesday.
Chief magistrate Emma Arbuthnot ruled there was “no doubt” that Golding had failed to comply with requests for information, despite his obligations being explained to him and being warned “over and over” that he risked arrest.

Unless I have missed it in the News Robinson as far as I am aware he not been dealt with at Court for refusing to tell Police the PIN Number of his Mobile Phone when asked my Terrorism Officers when he returned to the UK.
IMO
Yes he has been charged under legislation incorporated in the Terrorism Act if he pleads guilty or found guilty it does not mean he is officially a Terrorist it is not in itself an act of Terrorism, Police in England Wales can also charge people who refuse to unlock their phone when asked to do so under the RIPA Act which they do on a regular basis suspected of being involved in Criminality

When it comes to people suspected of committing an offence under the Terrorism Act within England and Wales and if found guilty then they are quite rightly a Terrorist, also outside of the UK
Facts from the CPS.
"Terrorism
The Terrorism Act 2000 defines terrorism, both in and outside of the UK, as the use or threat of one or more of the actions listed below, and where they are designed to influence the government, or an international governmental organisation or to intimidate the public. The use or threat must also be for the purpose of advancing a political, religious, racial or ideological cause.
The specific actions included are:
serious violence against a person;
serious damage to property;
endangering a person's life (other than that of the person committing the action);
creating a serious risk to the health or safety of the public or a section of the public; and
action designed to seriously interfere with or seriously to disrupt an electronic system.
The use or threat of action, as set out above, which involves the use of firearms or explosives is terrorism regardless of whether or not the action is designed to influence the government or an international governmental organisation or to intimidate the public or a section of the public.
Action includes action outside the United Kingdom.
It is important to note that in order to be convicted of a terrorism offence a person doesn't actually have to commit what could be considered a terrorist attack. Planning, assisting and even collecting information on how to commit terrorist acts are all crimes under British terrorism legislation.
Terrorist organisations
There is not one type of terrorist or terrorism. It originates from a variety of countries and terrorists have multiple ethnic, racial, religious and or political identities and have different views, aims and purposes. Some examples are provided below.
International Terrorism
International terrorism refers to terrorism that goes beyond national boundaries in terms of the methods used, the people that are targeted or the places from which the terrorists operate. Since the emergence of Al Qaida in the 1990s, international terrorism has become largely synonymous with Islamist terrorism. Terrorist groups in Syria and Iraq, including Al Qaida and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, possess both the intention and the capability to direct attacks against the West.
Linked to this, UK nationals travelling overseas to serve with extremist groups as ‘foreign fighters’ present a potential threat to the UK, both while they are overseas and when they return to the UK.
We have published separate guidance on the prosecution of individuals involved in terrorism overseas.
Extreme Right Wing Terrorism
Recent years have seen a rise in cases of extreme right wing terrorism in the UK. Extreme right wing terrorists promote messages of hate-filled prejudice which can encourage radicalisation among people motivated by race hate. Groups including (the now proscribed) National Action, Sonnenkrieg Division and The Base have been under scrutiny for promoting offensive, anti-Islamic messages which run contrary to the values of respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs. The CPS continues to work to combat those who seek to sow hatred and division by advancing extremist ideologies.
Are terrorism cases dealt with differently from other cases?
Terrorism crimes and terrorist-related offences are subject to the criminal justice system in the same way as all other crimes. The CPS reviews the case and makes a charging decision in line with the Code for Crown Prosecutors. CPS prosecutors regard those who commit terrorist offences as criminals and believe that it is important that they are tried fairly and objectively through the mainstream criminal justice system, applying the same standards as to any other case, and using offences that properly reflect the conduct concerned.
However, terrorism offences are distinct from other types of crime in that individuals who commit terrorism-related offences have political, religious racial and/or ideological motivations, unlike typical criminal motivations, which may be personal gain or revenge, for example. The CPS and Counter Terrorism Policing have specialist units that were set up specifically to investigate and prosecute terrorism cases.
CPS Special Crime and Counter Terrorism Division (SCCTD)
Within the CPS, the SCCTD is responsible for prosecuting terrorism cases investigated by the police in England and Wales. Our prosecutors provide early investigative advice to the police, make charging decisions and prosecute individuals accused of committing an offence. The Division deals with other highly specialised areas of work, but terrorism, both national and international, forms proportionately the largest part of the workload.
The number of arrests and prosecutions for terrorism-related offences is published by the Home Office in their Counter Terrorism Statistics quarterly updates. "
