Lmao imagine having a whole day at court because someone had milkshake thrown over them. What a waste of everyone's time.

Damn right, let's throw it at Farage.

Could have been worse, he wasn't creampied like that anti-gay orange juice lady in the 70s or 80s.

Calling it an attack feels like it lessens the meaning of the word for actual attacks. The man got wet.

He was made sticky by vicky.

No, the charge is assault by beating, which sounds like mr farright got kicked or punched, but nope he got soaked by milkshake. I guess that bring the boys to the yard and he won the seat.

I think poor Farage got beat by a paper cup accidentally.

Thomas Bowen told police she did not intend the paper cup to hit Farage.

Possibly the idea

It kinda looks like she just messed up feeding him. He looks a bit thin. Could have easily gotten away with that excuse.

How’d they figure out who did it?

[-] r00ty@kbin.life 8 points 14 hours ago

I feel she should have at least tried the shaggy defence.

[-] Paddzr@lemmy.world -3 points 8 hours ago

Because she admitted it. It also happens to be she's on OnlyFans! Go figure...

"She states she did not regret her actions."

[-] 5714@lemmy.dbzer0.com 63 points 16 hours ago

She acknowledges that this was an assault and that the liquid would have gone over the jackets of him and others and caused them to get cleaning, but she states that Nigel would be able to afford this.

[-] Flyberius@hexbear.net 24 points 15 hours ago

She's such a chad

[-] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 25 points 15 hours ago

I love this because it is entirely true and she is just being honest. Rich people can afford to have their coat cleaned.

Or more milkshake

[-] Salmarez@hexbear.net 9 points 13 hours ago

Critical support, only because I am vegan!

[-] sneak100@hexbear.net 19 points 16 hours ago

Braver than the troops rat-salute

[-] Zip2@feddit.uk 4 points 12 hours ago

It’s just a damn shame she didn’t have time to freeze it first.
