Victoria Thomas Bowen sentenced for Nigel Farage milkshake attack - BBC News
The Reform UK party leader was drenched in liquid when he started his constituency campaign in June.
That’s so fucking dumb. If I got hit with a shake the police would say, "So?." Then they’d go harrass black people on the south side of town.
I mean, in both case they're trying to advance the racist agenda, so thumbs up for consistency at least.
Following her sentencing, Farage posted on social media: "We now live in a country where you can assault a Member of Parliament and not go to prison." - Yes, Mr. Farage, and the citizens agree that this is a good thing.

Homie, be glad you don't live in a country where you can get assassinated on the sidewalk. Sure, the shooter will likely get killed or go to prison, but that's not going to help you much.
Honestly, he got "milkshaked", which washes off. She got a criminal record, which does not. He should be singing the court's praises for that lopsided judgement in his favor.
Tell Spencer Perceval that.
She should be applauded not punished
She is! 👏👏👏👏👏
God, Nigel Farage is such a cunt. He's only bloody 60 as well, so we might have to deal with this freak for another 20+ years.
Bowen deserves a medal.
Thomas Bowen has been given a 13-week jail sentence, suspended for 12 months, must pay the MP £150 compensation, complete 120 hours of unpaid work and pay £450 in court costs.
She should have been given a medal.
Suspended sentence, community service and £600.
Sounds worth it.
Seems worth it
Lactose the intolerant!
She got a suspended sentence but the country's gratitude.
If I ever meet her, I'll happily buy her a pint. Or a milkshake, if she prefers.
Seemed like a pretty harsh penalty to me for a friggin' jacket stain. Although I guess it was more about the darker message.
Three weeks of unpaid labour is a bit expensive, but might be well worth it. Legend.
I mean, I would.
Like, if they made him sit there and I could maybe feint a couple times first, watch him flinch? Yeah, worth it.
I still think it’s a shame that she didn’t have time to freeze it first.
I'm just so tired of this lead poisoned species.
Obviously Farage - with his dreams of drinking a nut-brown ale in a country pub with a “No dogs or Irish” sign on the door while aristos lead a cavalry charge against protesting mill workers - is little more than a useful-idiot tool of Putin and Trump, so a simple milkshaking seems like pretty commensurate punishment that he should be happy with.
