It's funny that people are ok with this
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You ok with protestors gate crashing a conference?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You'd be happy with the EDL gatecrashing an event then?

Dianne Abbot got panned for having a mohito.

Tories on everything between smack and bizzle and there is a contest to see who gets to run the country.

Would he be suspended if hed done this to a bloke? Nio3
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don’t even understand how that 3 got there.

If you watch the video you'll see she walks past six people at Mark Field's table before he does anything.

If he were truly concerned for their safety surely he'd have said/done something before grabbing her? I'd have much more sympathy with him, if he truly feared for their safety, had he ran towards her and threw himself on her to immobilise her.

I don't buy the 'he was afraid' narrative. IMO he was angry and he thought he could look the big man by doing what he did.

I agree, but none of that means she should be suspended.

Yeah that was facking stupid - the abuse she got not the fact she had an M&S cocktail.

although those things are grim.

Having been on various anti fscist marches I cant imagine the EDL having a peaceful protest made up of two women in red dresses but if so then yes.

How would the police have handled intruders?

Would it ha they have restrained and removed them?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

He is not the police.

The police would warn the woman and then take action.

No one is allowed to put their hands on you. It is assault
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not true at all
----------------------------------------------------------------------

What is not true?

You just compared green peace to the EDL that is amazing

I don't buy the 'he was afraid' narrative. IMO he was angry and he thought he could look the big man by doing what he did.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cant believe people see it any other way

The bloke was clearly fuming - the only argument is whether being angry is proper justification to do what he did

Moussa Chrissoko (U20930)

No, the other argument is whether what he did was worthy of suspension.

Typical deflection tactic by wrong uns.

I work in the civil service. If there were protesters in my building and I did that to them then I'd get suspended and most probably lose my job.

I’ll hold my hands up and admit something. If this was right wing racists as opposed to people who want to save the planet, I would feel differently. But that’s just me.

No, I don't believe it was.

take the recent example of the lady pictured on a train drinking away hailed a hero, im sure a certain labour politician was pictured doing that a few weeks ago and got pillared for it
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't recall that being the case actually.

I'd argue your conclusion of argument I raised answers your argument

You're not going to think that he was justified but should have been suspended

I don't believe you can possibly say that as a statement of fact.

Anybody that goes to protest like that, is very likely to be physically removed from the premises once they refuse to leave on request.

The alternative was to let them all carry on disrupting the event, hell why not cancel the event beause the protesters have showed up.

Bollox to all that.

The press (and some on here) make it sound like he had her in a head lock or something. He put his hand on the back of her neck as he guided her out of the room and wasn't overly aggresive in my opinion.

Can't believe I'm agreeing with Winston on something tho

What is he supposed to do? The woman could be there to carry out an attack. Or not, but you are not going to wait to find out.
...

I think you’re safe from green peace tbh
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Did everyone in the room realised that though, that she was from green peace?
