Pretty outdated viewpoint you have there, in these enlightened times there should be equality for men and women. Nobody should be subject to violence.
I SHOULD be six foot, but life's a sthouse.

The old "Punch her in the face to prove you are right" mentality.

Yeah...Bring back the old traditions...Not.

You'd be throttling her vagina.

I prefer the lady to instigate.

As others have said, I too have had both the man and woman turn on me when I 'intervened'.

He looks like and probably is a nasty bastid, has to be to head that PoS company of his so I'd imagine it would turn into a scrap if I had tried to stop him and whatever the outcome, the police would most likely end up charging me.

He can afford a decent lawyer.

A polite chat would be where you begin, try to calm the situation down but the key is to make sure that the eye witnesses report that he's the aggressor on you and his wife and you were defending yourself. The problem is if there is only the wife as an eye witness and she sides with him, then you wish the loving couple all the best and walk away as the wife must enjoy such activities if she defends him.

Noone knows the facts - he may have found out she was having an affair or some other revelation.
That makes it fine then...

If I had the opportunity to squeeze Nigella Lawson, her throat wouldn't be my first choice.

I'm surprised that Saatchi even managed to get past those two tasty looking bouncers that she always has with her.

She must be mortified to have this splashed all over the papers, he has issued a statement via the Evening Standard I believe.

Today Mr Saatchi, the former advertising mogul, multi-millionaire art collector and columnist for this newspaper said: “About a week ago, we were sitting outside a restaurant having an intense debate about the children, and I held Nigella’s neck repeatedly while attempting to emphasise my point.

So there we have it. Plain as day. Couldn't be clearer. A playful tiff. Emphasising a point via repeated neck grabs, as you do. Any doubters must be crazy. This will definitely put an end to any remaining anti-Saatchi sentiment.

'Held her neck' must be the new 'grabbed her throat'.

I'm not saying that it is bad that the whole world will have seen what happened, more the fact that people who are in the media spotlight have every nuance of their lives on public view.
Perhaps one of them recalls the expression used by a newspaper editor "Use a picture. It's worth a thousand words.", when discussing journalism and (self) publicity.

A couple of recent tweets and media comments.

@sarahw: No, it wasn't a playful tiff, and I wonder how many times he's used that excuse on different women over the years.

@suzanne_moore / CIF: If the Nigella Lawson's pictures show a 'playful tiff', what does a serious one look like? Charles Saatchi putting his hands around Nigella Lawson's throat looks like humiliating bullying.

So, is he suggesting that it might only be his second, or even third, choice?

idea Maybe he was discussing self-defence techniques. And Nigella was suffering from hayfever.
