Conservative MP Bob Stewart has been charged with two public order offences.
The Metropolitan Police said the MP for Beckenham was being prosecuted over an incident in central London last December.
One charge relates to an allegation of racially-aggravated abuse, the force said.
He also faces an alternative charge of threatening or abusive words or behaviour likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress.
He will appear Westminster Magistrates’ Court on 5 July.
