Until Thursday night, Robinson — whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon and who has become a lightning rod in the UK for so-called anti-Muslim activism — collected money from his fans using a Donorbox account linked to his TR Online website.

Responding to a series of questions from BuzzFeed News over email about the company’s terms and conditions, a Donorbox spokesperson said Robinson was told to remove the service from his site after the company became aware he was raising money for a 16-year-old accused of assaulting a 15-year-old Syrian schoolboy.

“We had Tommy Robinson stop using Donorbox when we discovered he was fundraising for a bully in the UK,” the spokesperson said. Hours later, the page was completely removed.

Robinson began supporting the 16-year-old boy after a video surfaced allegedly showing him attacking the Syrian pupil. The video went viral in late November, with efforts to fundraise for the Syrian refugee raising more than £150,000.

Instead, Robinson interviewed the 16-year-old about his version of events and began a fundraising drive on his behalf. He told his supporters in a video posted to Facebook on Thursday night that he had been able to raise £26,000 for the accused.
