Cocaine binge in Geneva

STEPHEN Lennon travelled to Geneva with former aide Lucy Brown, activist Kev Carroll and another associate.

While the purpose was to raise concern about human rights abuses in Saudi Arabia, and by implication (for Lennon at least) to raise serious questions about Islam, the former EDL leader saw the trip as a jolly.

According to an account of the trip that Brown recounted to her lawyers (when involved in an employment dispute with him), Lennon and Carroll consumed large amounts of cocaine, having “instructed” Brown to go with him to buy drugs.

She told her lawyers: “Tommy has to be accompanied when he’s taking drugs because he gets himself into trouble.”

In the taxi to the dealer, Lennon stopped at a cash machine. “Don’t rape her,” Brown says he told the Asian driver.

She says the evening was taken up with Lennon and Carroll taking copious amounts of drugs.
