Freedom of speech and protest

Section 41 Criminal Justice Act 1925 (CJA 1925) makes it an offence to take any photograph, make or attempt to make any portrait or sketch of a justice or a witness in, or a party to, any proceedings before the court, either in the courtroom or its precincts. The penalty on summary conviction is a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. The Attorney General's consent is not required.

The media reports on trials all the time, but professional outlets do so in a way that doesn’t influence public or the jury opinion of the defendants.

“There is a defence available to publishers (which includes newspapers, TV and social media users) who can show they were providing “a fair and accurate report of legal proceedings held in public, published contemporaneously and in good faith”, thus giving some latitude to the press and ensuring that the media do not shy away from accurate, factual reporting of criminal proceedings,” says the Secret Barrister.

It is obvious to me that Robinson knew he would be arrested and probably imprisoned. This would help him make the step up from mere "poster boy" to "martyr" of the lynch mob.
