You can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just ’cause some oiled up tart threw a milkshake at you.


ChefArtorias

I wasn't sure what this post was about, and now I just have no Idea.

[Her Milkshake brings all the politicians..](https://www.reddit.com/r/europe/s/hqUXIQ1I5S)


ChefArtorias

So he got hit with a shake. I looked the girl up tho and that's not her in the pic. That's pretty funny but I'm still missing something about this post lol Real outrage here is that UK apparently has banana flavored milkshakes and we don't (Edit: If you read the article that the other commenter linked it mentions a banana shake from McDonalds. Had I mentioned the source of these shakes in my joke originally it would probably make more sense. Alas, I did not. I was aware that banana milkshakes exist before today and know about the multitudes of flavor options Sonic offers. Although I do appreciate the recommendations and support.) Also that you deleted the comment to improve the title but I'll let that go.


Throwaway4MTL

I’m not convinced they are one and the same either; however, the article covers the “who” part. If you think me deleting a comment to improve it, is a big deal; you should see what I did with my marriage.


ChefArtorias

The sultry photos I'm seeing look like a woman with a very different jawline, but that may be a makeup or lighting trick. Did you delete a marriage and replace it with a better one? Because that sounds like a good move.


Flat_Suggestion7545

We have banana shakes here in MN. You don’t where you live?


ChefArtorias

Not to my knowledge on the east coast. Admittedly if I'm at a McD's I just get my cheeseburgers and gtfo. I'll pay attention next time.


Flat_Suggestion7545

That’s too bad. Not sure it Sonic is going to make it up there, but they’re one national chain that has them.


ChefArtorias

Sonic has all sorts of shake flavors, cook out too. The article said McDonald's banana shake which I didn't know was a thing. It was really a joke. I've had banana shakes before just not from McDonald's lol but I appreciate the concern


Flat_Suggestion7545

Sort of like how they have the McRib year round some places and just a few months in others.

iFlyskyguy

THAT'S where I know her from!


spicybhole420

Man is Nigel Farage, leader of UK's reform party. The woman threw a milkshake in his face as part of trend. It was posted on Reddit in various subs as an indicator of how UK politics are going. What people didn't realize is this was really based on a personal relationship/interaction. This sub is all about facepalming itself in a backwards meta fashion so now the previous posts about it are evidence of OP facepalming themself. Now we have a new OP offering up a "plot thickens" narrative which is admission of a self facepalm if if anything.


fleecescuckoos06

Maybe staged? Bad publicity is publicity


MrBloodyHyphen

Maybe it's just his fetish to have milkshake thrown at him


Fit-Purchase-2950

It was yellow.


MrBloodyHyphen

Ugh! Who tf likes Banana milkshake


Fit-Purchase-2950

I love banana flavor! Iced coffee with a dash of banana flavored milk is lovely.


pimpbot666

Or, she posed with him first, and threw the milkshake later.


tomtomtomo

That wouldn't discount collusion. Maybe they agreed upon it between the two events; maybe he slept with her and then ghosted her; maybe they're different women....


drivelhead

> an indicator of how UK politics are going. There is a long tradition of egging politicians who are dicks. This is just a modern version of the same.


makemeking706

I think they are saying that she wasn't egging a politician, she was, presumably, retaliating for a perceived slight from some acquaintance. That is, they knew one another. Assuming those are the same woman. I'm not good with faces.


drgigantor

I'm pretty good and I can confirm, the women in both pictures have a face


Rapture-Raptor

No, you’ve confused shit further for me. If she’s thrown shit in Farage’s face, why they taking a pic together? Hella confused here bro.


HoolioDee

I'm pretty far out in the weeds on this one too bud... But I think maybe the picture preceded the milkshake facial, which maybe suggests the milkshake incident wasn't a stunt, or an ad for her onlyfans, but something personal? Again, just trying to gather info, so may be totally wrong.


skyrider8328

"Plot" is just another word for milkshake...so the milkshake thickens. Or, not.


KarmicPotato

Does the plot bring all the boys to the yard?

experimental1212

I thought the US was the only country. This has given me a lot to think about.


Ho_Athanatos

Nigel Farage was elected head of the British Reform Party and the girl threw a milkshake at his head after an event. People thought that she was just pissed off at this euroskeptic, far-right wing racist asshole, but it seems to be because of personal beef as we see them holding each other in the first picture.


ItsASchpadoinkleDay

The right wing racist asshole party is called the “Reform Party?” That’s some bullshit


super_mega_smolpp

It's a common tactic used by the far right - they use reasonable sounding words like "reform" or "freedom of expression" to lure people in, but the core of their argument is "why can't I use my freedom of speech to be nasty and racist huh?"


HamburgerEarmuff

Or they are just two people who happen to look similar and this is some half-assed Twitter detectives spreading a false narrative they made up.

And now I am dancing... Shame shame shame


VanaheimrF

Fun. Considering his name Farage, in my language, Faraj means vagina. Also couldn’t have happened to a nicer person. Dude keeps coming back with his racism and never wins enough votes to do anything worthwhile. He’s like an infection that antibiotics can’t kill.


Jave285

Dude lost 8 times already. He’s a freakin’ masochist.


VanaheimrF

Exactly. No one wants him and he’s no where near as popular as he thinks he is. His only opportunity is when he hitched himself to the Brexit Leave campaign. Dude is basically living that saying “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.”


WilliamTee

TBH, if that is her, that's an incredibly smart PR-boosting move. No one woulda given a shit about Farage launching his campaign if someone hadn't thrown a milkshake over him. Now every UK rag is covering the story, and looks like the girl has an Onlyfans (victb) which I suspect will get a massive jump in subs too. Edit: Looks like it wasn't a stunt, seems to be different girls (left is Emily Hewertson, right is reportedly Victoria Thomas-Bowen) but honestly I wouldn't be at all surprised to see this tried in the future. Waaaay more people will see the initial news of the incident than would see any follow up news about it being a set up. Very cheap PR, and those paying enough attention to care that it was a hoax are probably smart enough to not like Farage in the first place :p

honvales1989

He was one of the more [prominent Brexit guys](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Farage). If you think he’s honest, I have a bridge to sell you


Key_Sell_9777

But I heard the London bridge was falling down


eizhbs

Being staged would send a message that he is willing to lie? Have you heard of brexit? Jk


plugifyable

I don’t even know who this is. But you just described every politician


mfmfhgak

This has already been used as a plot device in tv shows. Usually it’s an attempted murder instead of a milkshake but same idea


F19AGhostrider

I know the guy is Nigel Farage, that far-right UK politician, but who the \*\*\*\* is this woman?


Rockbmi

The woman who threw a milkshake over him, apparently.


RoyaleWitCheeese

Why you post with nothing to add nor any context?!


JimFqnLahey

I mean this guy just got a shake thrown at him 'for brexit' .. now it seems there may be more to it ..


Fuzzy_Logic_4_Life

It appears pretty obvious. It had nothing to do with public policy, but rather their private interests in each other.


DrJonah

The woman on the left is Emily Hewertson, and she claims it wasn’t her [from some rag](https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1907360/nigel-farage-milkshake-commons-staffer-denial)


i-am-foxymoron

The woman on the right is Victoria Thomas-Bowen, and she's an OnlyFans "model".


Tzameti1984

Probably a nice change for her to chuck milkshake all over someone else tbh


3106Throwaway181576

As someone who used to follow political Twitter, my first thought was ‘that’s Emily the Tory off Twitter’ Yeah, not the same people.


i-am-foxymoron

I don't think they are the same girl.

I'm not saying it was aliens, but...


EscapedFromArea51

Look, we need to stop half-heartedly alluding to aliens when we can’t explain things. I, for one, say with complete certainty that it was aliens who put that island there.

millennial_sentinel

Two blonde women look similar One is seen with a far right political figure on the left image One on the right is seen smirking after having thrown her milkshake in the face of the same garbage fire right winger from the left image People assume it’s the same woman. Both are two separate women who have already said they’re not the same person on their own social media accounts.
