Woman sentenced for hurling milkshake at Farage

Published

A woman who threw a McDonald’s milkshake over Reform UK leader Nigel Farage during the general election campaign must pay him compensation and carry out unpaid community work.

Farage had the drink hurled in his face as he left a pub in Clacton-on-Sea on 4 June, having just launched his candidacy for the Essex constituency.

Victoria Thomas Bowen, 25, from Clacton, admitted assault by beating and criminal damage at a previous hearing at Westminster Magistrates’ Court.

She has been given a 13-week jail sentence, suspended for 12 months, must pay the MP £150 compensation and the court ordered that she must complete 120 hours of unpaid work.
