Tommy Robinson Challenges Prison Segregation Over Mental Health Concerns
The Ministry of Justice defends Robinson's segregation at HMP Woodhill, citing credible threats to his safety, while his legal team argues the isolation is causing severe harm.
- Robinson remains segregated at HMP Woodhill due to intelligence reports of credible threats to his life, including a 'mark on his head' and plots by inmates to attack him.
- The Ministry of Justice argues that segregation is necessary to ensure Robinson's safety and maintain prison order, with no alternative facilities deemed safer.
- Robinson's legal team claims the isolation is harming his mental health and alleges it is politically motivated due to his activism and beliefs.
- In segregation, Robinson has access to extended privileges, including a laptop, gym facilities, daily social phone calls, and increased visitation rights.
- The High Court hearing on Robinson's legal challenge is ongoing, with his release from HMP Woodhill scheduled for July 26, 2025.
