Victoria Thomas Bowen has pleaded guilty at Westminster Magistrates Court to assault by beating and criminal damage after she hurled a milkshake over Nigel Farage outside a pub in Essex
A woman who threw a milkshake over Nigel Farage in a viral moment on the campaign trail during the 2024 General Election has pleaded guilty to a series of charges.
Victoria Thomas Bowen has pleaded guilty at Westminster Magistrates Court to assault by beating and criminal damage after she threw a milkshake over Reform UK leader Nigel Farage outside a pub in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, during the general election campaign.
Mr Farage, who is now Clacton MP, was doused as he left the Moon and Starfish Wetherspoon pub in the Essex seaside town on June 4.
He had earlier addressed supporters at a rally during the general election campaign and was left with the yellow liquid splattered across his dark blue suit.
Thomas Bowen had originally denied the charges and was due to go on trial at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Monday but changed her pleas to guilty before proceedings began.
Victoria previously posted a jibe after the milkshake incident with a photo on Instagram. The racy image was captioned: “My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard/And they’re like, it’s better than yours/Damn right it’s better than yours/I can teach you but I’d have to charge.”
