After banning U.K. far right activist Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, who goes by Tommy Robinson, from Facebook and Instagram in February, the social network took aim at several like-minded groups and people in that nation earlier this week.
The following British far right groups and people were banned from Facebook’s platform: the British National Party and Nick Griffin; Britain First, Paul Golding and Jayda Fransen; English Defence League and Paul Ray; Knights Templar International and Jim Dowson; National Front and Tony Martin; and Jack Renshaw.
