I appreciate that it's an easy option to go for 'He didn't know what she was going to do, he was protecting the Minister and everyone else, he's a hero ...' and so on ad nauseum, because it defends what i still maintain is actually indefensible.
I can only repeat my interpretation of what I saw, which is not a man who was scared for his life, and that of those around him, and someone who restrained a potential attacker and called for help because he was frightened.
I saw a man who was instantly angry and acted without thinking, by pushing the woman against a wall, and then marching her out of the room by the neck - which is not the action of a man restraining a potential maniac, but it is the action of a man who is seriously annoyed by a protester, and dealing with her as he believes fit - ejection by force.
The interesting thing is, for all the bravado of the defenders on here, the gentleman himself feels he acted inappropriately, which is why he has apologized immediately to the lady involved, and refered himself immediately to the appropriate disciplinary body of The House.
That is not the action of a man who thinks he behaved correctly, or that he is a hero, or any of the other guff being trotted out in his defence.
He acted like a violent temper-tantrum yob, he knows, the PM knows it, and I know it.
The defenders can carry on defending him, but this level of violence is simply not acceptable in any situation, much less from an MP who is sworn to uphold the values of the society he represents.
