Yeah, so he gets lots of donations from Americans who agree with what he's doing.
and powerful people who are invested in his narrative.
So for over a decade, Robinson has sold this quite distorted vision of Britain that's recently gone global.
It's this cautionary tale of a nation that's been overrun by Islamic invaders or betrayed by a wake liberal elite.
And some people who seem invested in that narrative are Steve Bannon, who is Donald Trump's former chief strategist, has called him the backbone of Britain before.
Elon Musk retweets him and has paid his legal fees.
He did that last year when Robinson stood trial for what at the time seemed to be quite shaky terror charges.
And straight after he was acquitted in that trial, he went on a state sponsored trip to Israel.
He's also made trips to Russia and the UAE.
So I think that Robinson is a case study really in how political influence is changing, not just in Britain, but beyond.
So if you look at his story, he founded the English Defence League in 2009.

And that was really a street movement inspired by football hooliganism.
It had a slogan, which was that they weren't racist, they weren't violent, they were just no longer silent.
But ultimately it failed when it got infiltrated by neo Nazis.
That probably would have been the end for Robinson in almost any other era.
But he found a new way to cut through as a journalist or what we might call an influencer.
In twenty seventeen he got a job making videos for Rebel Media, which is a far right Canadian news website, uh kind of similar to Breitbart in the US.
And that was kind of an inspired move because today two thirds of people globally consume social video for news.
The move gave him a profile, it gave him transatlantic connections, and ultimately it gave him control of his own narrative.
