You can't just say, but she's a middle class white woman in an evening dress.... she's not a threat. I imagine there might well have been some security sackings and so should there be. If security had been on the ball she might have ended up face down on the floor with plasticuffs on.

Have you even watched the video, Livia? You can't say it was self defense or he feared she was dangerous judging by how he acted. That's just a bull**** excuse peddled by him to try and worm his way out of trouble.

Anybody that is offended by a milkshake being thrown CANNOT explain away Mark Field manhandling a person without being a massive hypocrite, you just can't.

You can't choose when to be morally outraged when it suits, anyone who acted like Farage getting a milkshake thrown over him as an attempt on his life can't pick and choose not to take offense at this incident. That is the price to pay when you choose to use moral outrage to try to undermine someone, you have got to live and die by it, you can't pick and choose.
