The 42-year-old was detained by officers from the British Transport Police (BTP) at Luton Airport as he stepped off a flight from Faro, Portugal, on Monday evening.
He also remains bound by the terms of an injunction which last year led to his imprisonment for contempt of court.
His arrest followed the incident in which a 64-year-old man was taken to hospital after video footage showed him lying on the ground. The recording does not show how the man came to be on the floor.
Footage posted on social media showed Robinson, who had been leafleting at the station, walking back and forth in the vicinity of the man. The activist can be heard saying to onlookers: “He’s come at me bruv.”
In a statement, the BTP did not name Robinson but said it had been notified that a 42-year-old man wanted in connection with the assault was arriving on board a flight from Portugal.
Robinson had not been charged at the time of publication with any offence in connection with the incident.
Journalist harassment charges
Robinson last month entered not guilty pleas to the accusations at an appearance at Southwark Crown Court in south London before a five-day trial scheduled to take place in October next year.
The court was told that the alleged harassment took place between 5 and 7 August last year.
Following that hearing, Robinson said he had “never had” the opportunity to have a jury trial and wanted “12 members of the British public” to hear the evidence in the case.
The far-right campaigner had been ordered to pay damages to the teenager in 2021 after he was found to have posted false and defamatory claims in a Facebook video about the youngster after he was attacked in school.
Robinson was subsequently made the subject of a High Court injunction barring him from repeating the claims he had made against the teenage refugee.
A bearded Robinson was released from Woodhill Prison in Milton Keynes in May this year after the High Court reduced his sentence following undertakings from him that he would comply with the court order and had taken steps including the removal of material deemed to have breached the injunction.
The court heard that Robinson is not subject to any licence conditions related to the contempt conviction but could face fresh proceedings if the injunction was found to have been breached again.
Mobile phone PIN charge
The charge relates to an incident at the Channel Tunnel in Folkestone, Kent in July last year when he was stopped by officers under Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act 2000.
Robinson has denied the charge against him.
