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”.

we appear to have photographic evidence that “everyone clapped”
that rules.
I strongly believe/hope that most people want to do this but have the same type of invisible forcefield that keeps us from running of a cliff holding us (because me included) back
If she wasn’t a conventionally attractive white woman she would have been immediately tackled to the ground like egg boy.
my ass would’ve been executed if I did the same lol
queen shit
just look at her face on that last pic lmao she’s basking in it, as she damn well should
Straight up
That is a spectacularly good photo.
Someone cancel her for not boycotting mcdonalds /s
god forbid women have hobbies
I thought the bald guy next to Farage was Fetterman and she was trying to scare him into another heart attack lol

because leftists vegan milkshakes are secretly made from anthrax cement to kill chud politicians
this is not a kelly bit but the actual narrative the media went with when Andy Ngo got milkshaked
Fuck Andy Ngo
vegan alternative to milkshakes
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.
The last person to milkshake Farage got 150 hours unpaid work and a civil fine of ~£500 (which got crowdfunded).
Worth every stain on his suit honestly. It’s a good way to destroy that ‘strongman’ image these fascists fixate on cultivating.
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.
Can you think of a funnier drink?
So sticky. So cold. So thick.

That’s dangerous though. If you’re going for maximum comedy with minimal harm there is none better than the milkshake
role model
Yeah I support the troops
i dont understand. the milkshake is your common thin wrapper around a nonflammable liquid. what was her plan here? this aint no
Why can’t [redacted]
It’s ok OP I’ll say it.
Why can’t every politician on the planet who is not a socialist get milkshaked every day for the rest of their lives until they stop being evil?
Nah. It should be a non-dairy liquid
I know of many non-dairy liquids with very low pH levels
Something extremely satisfying about the milkshake mid flight and his gormless face not reacting. It’s like a slow mo punch from a Rocky Movie
holy shit that photo of her going down the stairs to applause is
, she looks fucking great, she’s obviously pleased as hell with her anti-fascist direct action, if there were a photo of me that looked like that I’d carry it around in my wallet and show it to everyone I met@WhyEssEff@hexbear.net can you emote it plz
holy shit that photo of her going down the stairs
At first only posted the glob of 3 photos. Then I scrolled down the Bluesky thread and I saw the original of her. I realized that if I cropped that photo to be focused on her and the guy clapping - it was perfect.
I remember Owen Jones (left wing talking head who’s sort of adjacent to Novara media) saying it was a good thing on twitter yesterday and then conservatives going “so was it a good thing when a neo Nazi attacked you and tried to kill you by slamming your head into the pavement?
” in his replies as if they’re remotely the same thing
