Tommy Robinson sparks fresh race row

Tommy Robinson has been banned from Snapchat after posting a video telling his followers the 'Czech Republic has no terror attacks because there are no Muslims.'

The far-right sympathiser, who said he hoped to spread fear of Muslim migrants, was jailed for four years for terrorism.

According to estimates, between 5,000 and 20,000 Muslims live in the Czech Republic, with 3,500 recorded in the 2010 census.
