Tommy Robinson is a marked man in jail where prisoners are plotting to attack him as court hears he 'would be killed by a lifer' and is moved to closed wing for his own safety
His barrister, Alisdair Williamson KC, said Robinson had asked to be moved to open prison in February, stating: 'The solitary confinement is destroying my mind.' Robinson continued: 'I am terrified of the long-term consequences of the continued solitary confinement. I feel I am being provoked to react. I want to leave prison mentally well, not mentally broken.' Robinson said in a separate complaint, also made last month, that he felt the 'continued isolation' was 'politically motivated because of my activism and beliefs'.
At the end of the hearing Mr Justice Chamberlain said he would hand down a written ruling at a later date. 'I hope to be able to give you notice of that decision tomorrow. 'It may not be first thing tomorrow but hopefully at some point tomorrow, and that decision can be handed down electronically without the need for anybody to attend.'
