  • Graham Rooney, 31, was seen with his arm around former EDL leader, 36
  • Robinson and another unidentified man feature in clip in pub toilets in Liverpool 
  • Friends of Wayne, 33, say the footballer is ashamed of his brother's actions 

Wayne Rooney's brother has been filmed beaming with his arm around Tommy Robinson on a night out. 

Sources said the football star, 33, would be 'furious' after a video emerged of his younger brother Graham, 31, with the far-right activist in a Liverpool pub's toilets.

The footage shows Graham, who started out at the same youth team as his brother but never turned professional, grinning with the former EDL leader. 

A third unidentified man appears on the other side of Robinson and shouts: 'Tommy Robinson's our new sponsor.' 

Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, replies: 'Go on Rooney', but Graham seems unable to speak and just smiles at the camera.

It came after Robinson held a rally speaking to thousands of supporters in a venue in the city which was attended by a heavy police presence.

Wayne Rooney has never explicitly stated his political views, but sources have told The Sun the striker is hugely embarrassed.

A friend told the newspaper: 'Wayne has spent the last 17 years sharing dressing rooms with players from every creed, colour and race.

'He will be furious about what Graham has done. He has brought shame on the family name.'

The unknown man in the clip, which was filmed inside the Slaughter House pub in Liverpool following Robinson's appearance at a rally in Merseyside, says to him: 'Tell em what you're having now'. 

Robinson replies: 'No, I can't That's going to be in a newspaper,' before the pair burst out laughing.

Graham, who still lives with his parents in the West Derby area of Liverpool, remains silent throughout the clip. 

Robinson has been on a tour of the country after he announced his candidacy in tomorrow's European elections.

He is running as an independent in the north west of England and has been slammed for his anti-Islam rhetoric by local faith leaders. 

Two of his campaign visits have been marred by people throwing milkshakes at him. 

Yesterday at a rally in Preston a brick was reportedly thrown at his campaign van.

This weekend he staged a major rally in the area, the queue outside of which was attended by a heavy police presence.
