Former Tory leader Sir Iain Duncan Smith was last night 'astonished' after protesters who harangued him and his wife as 'Tory scum' walked free from court.
Paul Goldspring, chief magistrate for England and Wales, cleared two defendants accused of intimidating Sir Iain, his wife and a friend during last year's Conservative Party conference, saying their behaviour was a 'reasonable' use of their right to protest.
A third suspect accused hitting Sir Iain with a traffic cone was also acquitted.
Giving evidence this week, Lady Duncan Smith described the atmosphere as they walked to a fringe event in Manchester where he was speaking as 'quite worrying'.
And Sir Iain said he feared for his companions as they were followed and insulted for around half a mile last October.
