TOMMY Robinson has been charged after breaching an order to stay away from an anti-Semitism march.
The former EDL leader joined thousands at the protest in central London yesterday.
Robinson has now been charged with failing to comply with an order that barred him from entering the area.
He was dramatically arrested as the protesters took to the streets yesterday afternoon.
The Met confirmed the organisers were "clear about their concerns" over Robinson attending.
He was asked by officers to leave but allegedly "refused to do so".
Robinson previously told how he wanted to attend the demonstration to "let British Jews know they are not alone".
Campaign Against Antisemitism said that Robinson was "not welcome" at the march.
The campaign group was joined by celebs including Boris Johnson and wife Carrie, who voiced their support for British Jews.
Countdown star Rachel Riley was among the stars who also joined in the march.
