Conservative MP Bob Stewart has said he made"a mistake" after he was caught on video telling a human rights activist to"go back to Bahrain".

When Mr Alwadaei asks again,"how much", Mr Stewart replies:"You're taking money off my country, go away!"Admitting the footage was of himself, the MP for Beckenham told Sky News:"I was goaded into a response, a mistake on my part. I'm not [taking money], never have been." A separate entry covered by the Bahraini government shows another trip to visit an air show and meet its foreign minister being worth £1,245.56.

"Stewart is acting as a mouthpiece by publicly denying its notorious and extensively documented human rights abuses-abuses which have been condemned by the United Nations."
