I don't see how it's any different from that twat throwing the egg at Corbyn. £5.25 that milkshake cost apparently. Worth it for the social media clout I suppose

Farage has 'refused' to get off his bus in Wakefield today after this morning's milkshake incident in Newcastle.
He told reporters he was staying on board as "I would be mobbed within 30 seconds".

I think people making it clear they aren't welcome, be that following Yaxley-Lennon around shouting "Nazi scum" at him, or chucking Milkshakes at them makes it totally clear they're not going to be able to get a word in and that people don't want them around. You're never going to change the minds of the kind of morons that vote for them, so we can at least get them off the streets.
