[Two people have been arrested
after Nigel Farage had a drink thrown
over him while launching his personal election
campaign in Clacton.

The Reform UK leader was leaving a pub
after carrying out media interviews when a
woman appeared to launch a McDonald's banana
milkshake over his face and suit jacket.

Essex Police said a 25-year-old woman was
arrested on suspicion of assault.

While making the arrest, the force said a man
was also detained on suspicion of assaulting
an emergency worker.

"Both individuals remain in custody for
questioning," a police spokesperson said.

The politician was walking out of the
Moon and Starfish pub - a JD Wetherspoon - to the
Reform UK party bus at the time.]
