George Galloway's Aberdeen 'glitter incident' on camera

Police were called to Aberdeen University after a group of protesters threw glitter over the former MP George Galloway.

The incident happened as Mr Galloway was giving a talk at the university's New King's building.

He tweeted that he had an "unknown substance in my eyes and lungs", but added later that he was "feeling better... just needed a good shower".

Mr Galloway also said on Twitter that his pregnant wife had leapt forward to defend him.

Police say their enquiries were at an early stage.
