Robinson, 37, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was bailed by Bedforshire Police to appear on April 2 after police were called to the holiday resort on March 1 after reports a man had suffered a facial injury.

Bedfordshire Police or Luton Magistrates Court have not confirmed whether the case of the former English Defence League leader has been postponed as claimed.
