In a recent court ruling, Conservative MP Bob Stewart of Beckenham has been found guilty of racially abusing activist Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei during a demonstration outside a Foreign Office building. The incident unfolded when Stewart told Alwadaei to “go back to Bahrain” and accused him of accepting money from the country.
The trial, held at Westminster Magistrates’ Court, featured footage of a heated exchange between Stewart and Alwadaei. In the video, Stewart expressed disdain for Alwadaei and instructed him to “go away,” calling him a “stupid man.” Prosecuting attorney Paul Jarvis argued that Stewart’s actions displayed “racial hostility” and left Alwadaei feeling upset and humiliated.
