QUOTE (newres @ May 21 2019, 08:51 AM) Bearing in mind how obvious that milkshake attack was yesterday and given the bad press Farage was getting over his financial probity, I suspect it was staged. "Lefty gets egg thrown at him by rabid hard right Nazi sympathiser extremist maniac!!" Farage gets assaulted, "I suspect it was staged". M'lud, I rest my case.

QUOTE (Strafin @ May 22 2019, 08:41 AM) Much as I find the whole thing hilarious, and also deserved, I can't really condone it. It's not the right way to make a proper stand. The likes of Farage bring it on themselves mind, and what they do impacts the lives of real people in a very negative way, and it's no more than a taste of their own medicine. If it was a left wing politician being attacked I would be all pi55y about it so I have to apply the same outrage in these recent cases. It's hard to apply the same outrage on behalf of Yaxley Lennon though. And note that in that case the "attacker" was being harrassed by Robinson. But look at this: https://twitter.com/Femi_Sorry/status/1131066941236498434or this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-wales-poli...rise-in-threats

He was desperate for a reaction. It would be like Farage setting up outside a Lib Dem rally....🤣

Can you justify Brexit or offer a real and tangeable benefit? The answer is always just some abuse and you're a traitor for asking.

Once one sides idea of meaningful political discourse is assaulting an opposition candidate then they've already lost the argument as well as any moral high ground they might like to think they're standing on.
