EDL Leader Lennon Jailed For Passport Offence
  • Stephen Lennon admits using a passport in the name of Andrew McMaster to board a Virgin Atlantic Flight from Heathrow to New York.
The leader of the English Defence League has been jailed for 10 months for using someone else's passport to get into the United States.

Stephen Lennon, 30, pleaded guilty to possession of a false identity document with improper intention, contrary to the Identity Documents Act 2010, at Southwark Crown Court.

Lennon used a passport in the name of Andrew McMaster to board a Virgin Atlantic Flight from Heathrow to New York, but was caught out after his fingerprints were taken by customs officials.

Now, c'mon, I never thought the EDL were that bright but this really does absolutely take the biscuit!

Thanks for a good laugh, Steve. Enjoy your time inside, won't you? Muppet.
