This should be put up in a museum
FATALITY!
Props to the photographer ready with the optimal camera settings.“Wait, is that a milkshake?”
switches to max iso and 1/8000
Anyone have the soggy, sticky aftershot?
I mean The Independent isn’t that bad of a news source…Would like to point out how clean everyone else is that was a high roll
When I got to the milkshake impact picture I thought to myself “How does someone just impromptu throw a milkshake? Did she practice or something? My aim would be terrible. … Should I practice throwing milkshakes?”
And then I got to that last picture where it appears the shake chucker is a certified shake sniper, and I realized I should practice throwing them! That woman is a rare talent, and I’d certainly be in the lower third of the bell curve for precision if I tried to deliver a dessert the same way.
Just like how that japanese prime minister was the only one hit by the doohickey
This guys saving some on his lip for a snack later.
The joy on her face is just priceless
it was staged
Billy Blueshirt already applauding.

Top tip: you can save valuable time by leaving it in the cup and just throwing that.
Might not be from Maccie Ds as they are expensive. Possibly not even a milkshake, let’s go dairy free for the planet. However, I am sure you can all rummage up something. Not that he’d dare come up here.

Is your local water company irresponsibly releasing sewage into your rivers?
-
Are you struggling to find an environmentally sound liquid to throw over Nigel Farridge?
I wonder if there’s some sort of solution to both these problems? Perhaps there is a way to both help remove a small amount of sewage from the river and also find something to throw at Nigel?
Hmm…
By Jove, this could just work!

Old gee saved from the trash would be best, that smell never comes out
There’s a possibility that the whole thing was a publicity stunt? This picture has started circulating.
She really does look pretty similar especially in the profile headshot
How could he be so dense to think these pics wouldn’t come to light?
You’re asking how could Farage be so dense?
But seriously speaking, this could just be a case of mistaken identity too; it’s not like either of them has a very unique look exactly
How could anyone be so dense to jump on this conclusion when it’s apparent it’s a different person?
Her name is Victoria Thomas-Bowen. She models online for cash.
For cash, you say?!
Thanks for that. I left Twitter in Nov 22, so I can’t follow the interesting threads anymore.
Oh I’ve never been on Twatter, somebody shared this on a Discord I’m on
Even better!
My mental health is terrible enough as it is, I’d have been put in the loony bin long ago if I’d spent any appreciable amount of time on Twatter
Apparently that’s a different person. More on this as it develops. Over to Emperor with sports news.
Aside from the same colour hair, they don’t even look alike.
This is desperate stuff.
Different nose and hairline are the biggest takeaways. Not easy to see every feature with the pictures provided though.
Politics aside, as I’m not a UK resident. This is some House of Cards or Succession level of narrative pushing.
Edit* pure cope. Her name is Victoria Thomas-Bowen. An Only Fans model.
Nothing creepy about that hug…these old fucks can’t help themselves can they.
if it’s consentual a hug is a good thing, even if it’s an “old fuck”. stop hug shaming. get hugged. go hug someone.
Seems like a perfectly acceptable one armed hug
No, because young women are sexy.
Women are sexy so you can’t hug them?
You can even fuck them, if they’ll let you!
I like that this has become a sort of election tradition now lol.
If I can propose a slight tweak, if you know he’s heading your way might I suggest buying the milkshake about a week beforehand to allow it to reach it’s full potential? Let it level up, so to speak.
DM: “Are snowflakes making bioweapons against Nigel?”
It’s only a matter of time before you’ll get 20 years for a milkshaking. I remember when that weevil Ngo got milkshaked, there was endless handwringing and gnashing of teeth over it: “What if someone were to put ready-mix concrete in a milkshake cup? Anthrax? An HIV-riddled bloodshake??” And of course, none of those escalations happened, but it clearly discomfited the fringe political enthusiasts.
It’s important to have non-lethal physical means of expressing derision. It used to be banana-cream pies, but it seems that those days are long gone. “They came for the milkshakers, and I did nothing…”
Deserved. How many elections has he already lost? He needs to get in the sea already.
His angry little face every time in Newsnight’s compilation of election result announcements, followed by him having a temper tantrum at a BBC interviewer asking about all his losses. Gold.
He’s likely to do worse now than in 2015 (his best result to date) when he was agitating for Brexit, notwithstanding dark funding & assistance from Twitter’s new owner, as many of those who thought they wanted to leave the EU have realised it was a mistake.
Is that compilation real?
Seemed to be, but I wasn’t present at any of the result returns of elections he participated in.

The sequence of shake colours should make a rainbow. That’d be a nice touch.
it was staged

there’s a lot of evidence

mistaken identity i guess.
Thomas-Bowen was arrested by Essex police on suspicion of assault.
However, since the pictures of the event were shared widely online, people falsely identified the woman as Emily Hewertson – a 24-year-old conservative, pro-Brexit media personality, who also works as a House of Commons press officer.
Clarifying that she was not responsible for the incident, Hewertson wrote on Twitter/X: “No, I did not throw a milkshake over Nigel Farage.”.
however, she just did it for publicity;
The woman who threw the drink has been identified as Victoria Thomas-Bowen, who is a 25-year-old OnlyFans model.
but oh well… i hope he gets more milkshakes
Her: “My milkshake brings all the boys from the yard, and they’re like, it’s better than yours.”
Scotland Yard: “Damn right, it’s better than yours.”

Is this becoming a UK tradition?
With Farage? Yes.
Nice.
Great username btw
Right back at you my winged friend.
So Starmer got glittered. Nigel got his traditional milkshaking. What’s Rishi gonna get?
Voted out
Oh sweet Christ I hope you’re right 🤞
What’s Rishi gonna get?
a golden parachute and literally no consequences
As is tradition.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A young woman approached the new Reform UK leader on the steps of a pub in Clacton before hurling what appeared to be a milkshake over him.
Richard Tice, Mr Farage’s predecessor as Reform UK leader, expressed his anger at the incident, adding: “The juvenile moron who threw a drink over Nigel has just gained us hundreds of thousands more votes.
A member of staff at the Wetherspoons where the incident occurred suggested the thrower could have been lying in wait for the politician to arrive for an hour.
The Moon & Starfish worker, who wished to remain anonymous, told The Independent three police officers had just come into the pub looking for the mystery woman who threw what is believed to be a banana flavoured milkshake.
Mr Farage had kicked off his general election campaign in the seaside town earlier on Tuesday, as he promised to be a “bloody nuisance” in Westminster.
Speaking earlier at the rally, Mr Farage said: “We made an offer to the British people, we could get back our independence and control of our borders.
The original article contains 710 words, the summary contains 175 words. Saved 75%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Odd. Why didn’t he just have one delivered to him like a normal person?
I don’t think we should kink shame.
it should happen to nigel every day until the election tbh
