Iain Dale grapples with the anti-nuclear protester
The publisher of the former Labour spin doctor Damian McBride has been questioned by police following a scuffle on Brighton seafront.
Iain Dale and anti-nuclear campaigner Stuart Holmes tussled as Mr Dale tried to get Mr Holmes's banner out of shot during a live television interview.
Mr Dale went to Brighton police station on Tuesday where he was questioned about a possible offence of assault.
Mr Holmes has also been interviewed on suspicion of common assault.
'Bitten on the bum'Mr Dale, of Biteback Publishers, who is due to return to Brighton police station on Thursday, wrote on his blog: "In some ways I have committed the cardinal sin of becoming the story myself, rather than my author.
"Anyone who has seen the pictures and video can see that there was no real violence," said Mr Dale, who is better known as a political blogger.
"I certainly didn't hurt the guy. He threw a punch at me but missed, and the only injury was when the man's dog bit him on the bum."
Sussex Police said Mr Dale had been questioned about his version of events.
Det Sgt Stephen French said: "A man was exercising his right to protest in a public place when this incident took place.
"A man has been interviewed in relation to an offence of common assault and is due to attend Brighton police station again on Thursday."
The Labour Party is currently in Brighton for its annual conference.
