Bob Stewart, MP for Beckenham in south-east London, got into a row with Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei outside the Foreign Office’s Lancaster House in Westminster on 14 December.

He told Mr Alwadaei: “You’re taking money off my country, go away.”

Labour and the Liberal Democrats have called for him to lose the Tory whip.

Westminster Magistrates’ Court heard the 74-year-old had been attending an event hosted by the Bahraini Embassy when Mr Alwadaei, the director of advocacy at the Bahrain Institute for Rights and Democracy, shouted: “Bob Stewart, for how much did you sell yourself to the Bahraini regime?”

Stewart replied: “Go away, I hate you. You make a lot of fuss. Go back to Bahrain.”
