A scuffle broke out between EFF MPs and an Agang MP - leading to protection services being called in. 

It started after DA Chief Whip John Steenhiusen asked that EFF MPs allow him to finish his point without them interjecting. 

After words were exchanged - Agang's Andries Tlouamma took issue with something he said he'd heard.

"House chair, I do respect your ruling. But I think we cannot allow in this House for someone to say - 'Whites can't speak in this house',"  Tlouamma said. 

Things went downhill when EFF MP Nazier Paulsen and Tlouamma faced-off. Listen below.
