Trash thrown at Farage on campaign

The UK’s Nigel Farage is back on the campaign trail, and you know what that means. Yes, more people are throwing things at him, but this time, it’s dairy free. Farage was already being heckled by Stand Up To Racism protesters, however, he stood up to them. One disgruntled protester was more enraged than the rest that Farage had chosen to do a spot of mild bus riding in the northern town of Barnsley, sporting a look of disgust on his face. Or perhaps he just looks like that. It’s unclear whether milkshake technology has made its way to Yorkshire, but in any case, this protester broke with tradition – his weapon of choice was a lump of trash from a nearby construction site. He hurled it with all his might at the Farage visage, narrowly missing. Annoyed, he returned to the trash, finding a new weapon: an empty pot of something. He was tackled first by the construction workers for being annoying, and then by a squad of British policemen, who detained him for possession of lumps of miscellaneous detritus without a license (and public order offenses).
