Paul Crowther, who was arrested at the scene after being filmed dousing Mr Farage with the milkshake, told journalists the act was "a right of protest against people like him". He
said: "The bile and the racism he spouts out in this country is far more damaging than a bit of milkshake to his front." The 32-year-old, of Holeyn Road, Throckley,
Newcastle-upon-Tyne, was charged by Northumbria Police with common assault and criminal damage. The criminal damage charge related to a microphone which was damaged during the incident on
May 20. North Tyneside Magistrates' Court was told the politician's suit was left covered with the banana and salted caramel Five Guys drink during an event in Newcastle ahead of
last month's European elections. District Judge Bernard Begley said Crowther will not be jailed but must carry out unpaid work. He adjourned sentence while the defendant was interviewed
by the Probation Service. In the immediate aftermath of the incident, Mr Farage was heard telling a member of security staff that he "could have spotted that a mile off". Later
that day, the Brexit Party leader said: "I won't even acknowledge the low-grade behaviour that I was subjected to this morning, I won't dignify it, I will ignore it.
"Perhaps keep buying new clothes and carry on."
