    I disagree Muddy.

    There are times and places to protest.

    A private function is not one of them.

    He did just enough but I don't think he crossed the line but the woman certainly did.

    The reports I have seen variously describe his action as pushing/shoving/crushing her into the pillar - I would call it a firm push. His initial reaction was, I think, acceptable - he had to decide very quickly did she have a knife/gun/acid/mace. Once she turned/had been turned to leave the room he should have eased off, not become more aggressive. One report said she had a smirk on her face - I would call it a grimace.
    Would he have been so aggressive if it had been a man?
    It is worth thinking in any negative interaction with a woman - would I do this if they were a well built man?

    Yes I agree Staggs. These protesters think they can do whatever they want.

    But isn't that what these women protesters want? A reluctance to deal with them on the basis of their sex. It emboldens them knowing their victims fear taking appropriate action.

    Force is always ugly but if someone starts it they can't complain when someone else finishes it. If it was a well built man then I wouldn't be against two, three, four or more men dragging him out. Simples.

    What ever it looked like the protester was the pratt.

    Got just what she deserves.

    Punishment to fit the crime.

    He’s a toff with some pretty extreme views, why would any of us on here the majority I would imagine who see themselves as working folk seek to defend him?

    He’s like the lot of ‘em Boris, Jeremy (red) Jeremy (blue) etc etc none of them give a flying toss about any of us, career politicians never do, what they do love is to get ordinary folk arguing against each other, it suits their ends, they’re all prats.
