<p>The firebrand politician said his pregnant wife jumped to his defence when the incident happened as he addressed students at the University of Aberdeen.</p>
<p>Galloway said he was left feeling <i>“a little unwell”</i> after the <i>“unknown substance”</i> got in his eyes and lungs, but continued with the talk nonetheless, albeit covered in glitter.</p>
<p>Footage acquired by the Mirror Online appears to show several people carrying placards walk in front of the stage where the politician, wearing his trademark fedora, is on his feet. The video then seems to show a shower of gold, then green glitter being thrown in the air.</p>
<p>A woman can be seen leaping over the desk towards the stage in an apparent attempt to apprehend the culprits and a scuffle breaks out, with a woman repeatedly shouting: “Who did that?”</p>
<p>Galloway tweeted later to say he was fine and just needed a good shower:</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Feeling better thanks to all; just needed a good shower. Thought not as much as the ";Student Left"; who attacked me &; tried vainly to stop me</p>

<p>“Inquiries are at an early stage and we have not spoken to the individual concerned.”</i></p>
