Fistecuffs in Strangers Bar?

Guido has the full story, but I thought it would be easier to understand with pictures:


Andrew Percy MP was hosting an event for the Speaker of the Canadian Parliament, at which Stuart Andrew MP was a guest.




The night had progressed, and the speaker (and family) had left.




Eric Joyce was also in the bar, and was having a conversation with Alec Shelbrooke MP.




Andrew Percy had gone to the bar and on his way back asked to get past AS and EJ. EJ was then heard (by eye witness) to say something along the “no you can’t. I’m fed up with this place. It’s full of f###ing Tories.”




Somehow this confrontation ended with Andrew Percy being pushed to a wall. At this point Stuart Andrew stood up and told him (EJ) to stop.




AP had gone to get the police, who promptly surrounded Joyce, although did not restrain him.




IT IS CLAIMED THAT he then, whilst surrounded by police launched himself at SA, head butting him and punching him.




EJ was then arrested.




And dealt with by the police.
