EGG ON TORY FACE

A Tory peer was pelted with eggs for “not being a proper Muslim”. Baroness Warsi was attacked by a group of protesters while campaigning. Recently named Britain’s most powerful Muslim woman, the shadow Cabinet minister said she had tried to talk to the protesters in Luton, Beds. She later told the BBC they were “idiots” who did “not represent the majority of British Muslims”.  A protester said: “We don’t know who threw the eggs. We tried to engage her in a conversation, but she did not have the answers. We wanted to know why, as a Muslim, she supported soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq. Her views are an affront to Islam.”
