Woman throws milkshake at Nigel Farage on first day of campaigning | Nigel Farage | The Guardian
Nigel Farage had a milkshake thrown over him on his first day of campaigning in Clacton, the Essex constituency where he is making his eighth attempt to become an MP. The Reform UK leader was coming out of a pub after a rally on Clacton’s beachfront when a young woman drenched him with what appeared to be a banana milkshake from McDonald’s.
The woman, who gave her name as Victoria, told the BBC she had not come to the event to throw the drink but did so because Farage “did not stand” for her. Farage had earlier told crowds of supporters that young people’s minds were being “poisoned” in schools as he promised to stand against what he called “woke nonsense”.
In the UK it's not gonna get you anymore than a slap on the wrist but it also makes the person that receives one look utterly fucking pathetic. Also making these fascists look like utterly pathetic weaklings is one of the better ways to deal with them.
It also cuts short whatever they're doing and makes them fuck off. You want an event with a fascist over with? Milkshake. They need to take a shower now. They're gonna leave.
Yeah exactly. Community service, oh how awful to be made to do some sweeping and some litter picking to clean up the very area you live in! Terrible. Horrible. I would never do that voluntarily!
I do think the biggest one is undervalued though. It's sticky and it's milk, if they don't deal with it immediately then it gets nasty. It cuts short whatever they were doing, it makes them leave. This has tangible tactical benefits that make it a valid and useable strategy.
