A CANADIAN far-right activist has had a tough time in Manchester after local people she asked about Tommy Robinson repeatedly labelled him a “c**t.”

Jessica Swietoniowski, an activist with Rebel Media, is currently in Manchester covering the EU election campaign of Mr Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

After asking to a young woman wearing a 21st birthday tiara if she knew Mr Yaxley-Lennon was standing in the elections, the woman responded: “Yeah he’s a c**t.”
