Tommy Robinson has been freed on bail by the Court of Appeal after winning a legal challenge after he was jailed for 13 months for contempt of court. The former English Defence League (EDL) leader's case was heard this morning at the Court of Appeal. Lord Chief Justice Lord Burnett and two other judges in London quashed a finding of contempt made against Robinson at Leeds Crown Court in May when he was sentenced to 13 months in jail.
