/// "The victim, a man, reported he had been sprayed with a substance. He was treated at the scene by paramedics; the victim suffered a minor irritation to his face," a spokesperson said. ///
/// Officers remained at the scene, the spokesperson added, but said test had confirmed the substance was not acid. ///
That's good to hear, at least that lets a certain comedian off the hook.
It would seem that they are now quick to rule out other things, just as they are regarding terrorism.

My understandin g of the point that AOG is trying to make is not blaming Jo Brand specifically but that since she said what she said spokesperson s will always now feel the need to re-assure that it wasn't acid - and had she not said that they wouldn't have mentioned it. Seems clear to me, her comment was always going to have the potential to put the idea in someone's...

/// Was the victim Farage then or another public brexeteer figure? ///
No I think it would have been reported if it had been.
Just someone that the perpetrator hated enough to rob him and then sprayed him with a substance.
But even that so called comedian didn't specifically mention Farage or even a brexiteer, just someone who one hates enough to carry out that evil deed upon them.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make either, AOG.
The possibilities are:
Jo Brand is responsible for this attack (even tho it isn't acid)
I'm not actually sure of any other possibilities as your posts are so garbled.
'It would seem that they are now quick to rule out other things' what other things?
'No I think it would have been reported if it had been.' Erm....it was....in your Independent link
Why do you assume the perpetrator hated his victim? I'm pretty sure it was an opportunistic attack and could have been anyone.

Acid attacks have been going on for ages. What jo said has no influence or reflection on them.
Also jo said "battery acid" instead of the more commonly used nitric acid or sulphuric acid. So if they were making any notion towards what Jo said they would have highlighted that it wasn't battery acid.
