Woman facing charges after Nigel Farage milkshake incident

A 25-year-old woman is due in court in July after the Reform UK leader had a drink thrown over him. The incident occurred during a walkabout in Newcastle city centre, where Farage was campaigning for the upcoming election.

The woman has been charged with common assault and criminal damage, and is set to appear before magistrates next month. The incident has sparked debate about the use of milkshakes as a form of protest, with some condemning the act as an attack on free speech.
