Tommy Robinson was on the receiving end of a milkshake shower – 21 favourite reactions
It’s been a rough time for Stephen Yaxley-Lennon – a.k.a. Tommy Robinson – as he campaigns for a seat in the European Parliament, representing the North-West. First, his campaign Twitter account was suspended, then he was berated by a woman he was trying to browbeat and today, he had milkshake thrown on him for the second time in two days as he toured Warrington. This is what happened:

The far-right anti-Islam campaigner landed a few punches on Danyal Mahmud before the two were separated, and that suit is going to need dry-cleaning – he’ll probably start a crowdfunder to cover the cost.
We can’t honestly say we saw much sympathy for his plight, in fact it was quite the contrary.

Imagine seeing yaxley & not throwing a milkshake at him now. I hope it becomes a new tradition. Everywhere he goes.

Not saying it was necessarily right to throw a milkshake at Tommy Robinson, but people claiming it was a 'racist attack' don't seem to be aware that "Hate-mongering Prick" isn't a race.
