These things happen, it's no big deal," Clegg said.<br /><br />A spokesman for Clegg said he was uninjured and carried on with his day. "Nick's got three children under 10, he's not worried about a bit of paint," he said.<br /><br />A witness said: "He (Clegg) laughed it off. He said these things tend to happen sometimes in the job and it's no big deal. He took it in good humour.
