A 25-year-old woman has pleaded guilty to assault after throwing a milkshake at Nigel Farage during an election campaign. The incident occurred on 4 June, outside a Wetherspoons pub in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex. The woman, identified as Victoria Thomas Bowen, was charged with both criminal damage and assault by beating.

 

Bowen, from Clacton-on-Sea, admitted her actions in Westminster Magistrates' Court in London, where she faced the charges this morning. The event attracted widespread attention, as Farage, a prominent political figure, was targeted while campaigning. 

 

The milkshake incident was one of several similar attacks on public figures during election campaigns, which have sparked debate about political protest and personal boundaries. Nigel Farage has previously been the target of strong opposition due to his role in British politics, particularly during his leadership of the Brexit Party.

 

Bowen's guilty plea brings an end to the legal proceedings related to this act of protest. It remains unclear what consequences she will face following the charges of assault by beating and criminal damage.

Well as this was actual 'assault' she should get a far more serious sentence than those that had posted 'hurty words' on Facebook.?

I see the misrepresentation of facts recorded in court records is spreading.

Absolutely right.

 

And more than the grandfather who got 2 years 8 months for holding a placard and shouting, who killed himself in jail last weekend. 

 

Highly unlikely though. It's 2 tier Britain and the left think this is funny because it's Farage. I'm expecting the usual "suspended sentence". 

 

At leat she was charged though, unlike the Manchester airport thugs who broke the nose of the female police officer.

While they are at it, they should charge Jo Brand for encouraging people on national radio to use acid on Farage after a previous "milkshaking". 

 

If the Tory councillor got 3 years for a FaceBook post, that must be worth at least 5.

 

Oh sorry, she's a left wing BBC luvvie. My bad.

The previous guy who violently protested against Farage got [drumroll], you guessed it, a suspended sentence.

It seems throwing cement at someone is less serious than holding a placard and shouting. All depends who you are throwing at it you see.
