MP GEORGE BEATEN UP BY AIRPORT YOBS

MAVERICK MP George Galloway was kicked and shoved by a jeering sectarian mob yesterday.

He was threatened and taunted by six men and almost pushed on to a luggage carousel as he arrived at Glasgow Airport.

Respect MP Galloway said: "It was a terrifying experience and quite disgraceful for these people to behave like this. There was one guy I would describe as a ringleader who said, 'I don't like your radio talk, I don't like your newspaper talk, I have a religious duty to knock you down.' "

Former Celebrity Big Brother star Galloway was called a "Fenian b******" and believes he was targeted for being a known Celtic supporter.

Last night, police were investigating the sickening ordeal and studying CCTV footage.

The MP had arrived from London on a British Midland flight to give a talk at Glasgow's Royal Concert Hall. Though shaken, he went ahead with his one-man show last night.
