Obviously stopping McDonalds selling milkshakes and ice cream does not work in Newcastle.

//That's what the brexit campaign has been doing since this charade started. Throwing insults.//
There’s quite a difference between throwing insults (which many politicians seem to excel at) and throwing a milkshake. Although it seems amusing I once was involved in a matter where somebody was quite seriously hurt by being struck in the face with a carton of coffee that had been thrown at them. They nearly lost the sight in one eye.
//At least remain were voting for what we knew and understood, the status quo.//
Really? Do you know and understand what plans the EU has for its future and that of its members, spathi? You should investigate because one thing is for certain – it certainly ain’t the “status quo”. The EU does not do the status quo as you will see if you examine its development.

"The future isn;t the status quo. Status quo is exactly that."
How much simpler can I put it (before I give up)? Do you expect the EU (which you "know and understand") to remain as it now is (i.e. to retain its status quo) in the future or do you expect it to change in the future?
The "status quo" means "the existing state of affairs". So, do you expect the EU to remain in its existing state or do you expect it to change. If the UK remained in the EU it would be subject to any changes it undergoes. Unless you believe it will remain unchanged you were no more voting for the "status quo" than those who voted to leave were. Is that easy enough?

I listened aghast to PM on Radio Four as some twerp from the Guardian tried to convince host Evan Davies and Anna Soubry that this was actually a 'fun' reaction to the pontificating of the right wing, and their doom-laden posturing about revenge and violence.
Throwing a milkshake at someone in a clown outfit in a circus ring is 'fun', throwing it at a person in the street is assault - maybe the Guardian should educate its journalists in that simple difference.

It transpires that this ...hole works for Sky!
It has been revealed (by Guido) that the identity of the man who threw a milkshake at Nigel Farage in Newcastle earlier: 32 year-old Paul Crowther boasted on Facebook how he was walking with a milkshake back to his office – he currently works as a ‘Customer Service Representative’ at Sky – when he bumped into the Brexit Party march. He’s a Labour Party supporter and a big sharer of Remainer content on Facebook. He also shared a tweet last week calling Theresa May a “wretched little ***”. He’s now having a word with the old bill for his trouble…
Sleep well Paul.

Heard that. It was the revolting Zoe Williams.
She's got form for this sort of thing. When a left-wing mob spat on journalists and delegates (including an 80yr old lady in a wheelchair) outside a Tory Party conference, she defended it.
