For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.No matter what someone does to you, it doesn't give you the right to assault them. (i.e. the fact that your girlfriend pushed you didn't give you the right to do anything to her. Your actions were 'retaliation' - which is illegal - rather than 'self defence' - which isn't).
Plead guilty but, as Vesper99 suggests, speak to the duty solicitor first. He/she will know how best to show that
(a) you were provoked (which is not a defence but which is a mitigating circumstance when the court considers sentence) ; and
(b) the assault was very minor in nature (and possibly not as bad as your ex?-girlfriend's evidence might suggest).
