Irish MPs Investigate Tommy Robinson's Passport Validity

Tommy Robinson, born Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, faces scrutiny over the validity of his Irish passport after Canadian immigration authorities recorded his birthplace as Ireland, despite his actual birthplace being Luton, England. Irish parliamentarians are demanding an investigation into how Robinson obtained the passport, which he is presumed to have qualified for through his Irish mother. Concerns were raised particularly because Robinson has been linked to inciting anti-immigration riots in the UK while abroad. Charles Flanagan, a former justice minister, emphasized that any questions regarding the integrity of the Irish passport system must be taken seriously and investigated. Other MPs have echoed calls for investigation, highlighting the importance of accurate information in passport applications. The situation raises broader concerns about far-right activism and its implications for national security.
