Victoria Thomas Bowen has pleaded guilty to assault by beating and criminal damage after throwing a banana-flavored McDonald's milkshake over Nigel Farage during his general election campaign in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex. The incident occurred on June 4 when Farage, now an MP for Clacton, was leaving the Moon and Starfish Wetherspoons pub.
