Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, is due for trial in April
Tommy Robinson has denied refusing to leave a march against antisemitism in central London.
The English Defence League founder, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, is accused of failing to comply with a dispersal order.
He was arrested near the Royal Courts of Justice in November after organisers said he was not welcome at the event.
The 41-year-old, of no fixed abode, is due to appear at City of London Magistrates' Court for trial in April.
Bail conditions that prevent Mr Robinson from entering within the M25, or attending or organising a protest within London, remain in place.
Organisers estimated 100,000 people took part in the march on 26 November.
The rally was said to have been the first of its kind since the Israel-Gaza war began.
