I'm not giving you my opinion Reece, I'm telling you how the law sees it. The fact that, like you, I think the man is a scumbag for his beliefs is neither here nor there.

yep, i guess one egg will make a stain on your suit, and maybe a slight bruise

while a gang attack from grown men with dogs, leaves worse injuries (some life threatening if there is a lot of blood loss)

This man has lost his seat in the senate after being voted out. That's the way to deal with people like that.

More reason not to go around assaulting people for instagram likes would you say?

unfortunately the drive to "be popular" is very strong in young people and it sometimes bypasses their rational thought

It's taking politics down to the lowest common denominator, you've only got to look at the people applauding this assault to see that.

A veteran in his 80s had a milkshake thrown at him outside a polling station last week, because he was wearing a rosette someone else didn't like. Ha! It's a larf, innit.

No he didn’t he backtracked, he’d lied and spilt yoghurt all down himself

Link?

Because all I can see is a load of unemployable Twitter addicts claiming they think it was faked.
