Woman, 25, who threw milkshake at Nigel Farage unmasked as Labour-backing adult model

The woman who threw a milkshake over Nigel Farage is a Labour-supporting adult model, it can be revealed.

Victoria Thomas-Bowen, 25, previously shared a picture on Facebook with the caption: “Vote Labour for the many not the few”.

And the mother-of-one also regularly publishes raunchy pictures on adult sites and her social media sites.

She said of the incident: "He doesn't stand for me.

"He doesn't represent anything I believe in, or any of the people around here. He doesn't represent us, he's not from here."

Mr Farage admitted the incident was "quite scary" adding: "No one goes out and does the old style street campaigning the way that I do, and this is the risk that goes with it."

The young blonde woman hurled a cup of banana milkshake at the new Reform UK leader as he left the Moon and Starfish pub in Clacton, Essex.

The 25-year-old then smirked and casually walked away.

Mr Farage, 60, was led away, surrounded by his security team as former leader Richard Tice followed behind towards the election battle bus.

Thomas-Bowen, from Clacton, Essex, was arrested on suspicion of assault and taken into custody.

Richard Tice, Mr Farage’s predecessor as Reform UK leader, expressed his anger at the incident, adding: “The juvenile moron who threw a drink over Nigel has just gained us hundreds of thousands more votes. We will not be bullied or threatened off the campaign trail.”

Former Immigration Minister Robert Jenrick said: “There can be no place for this kind of behaviour towards any candidate from any political party on the campaign trail. This is clearly a criminal offence and the police should take swift action to uphold the law.”

Shadow Home Secretary Yvette Cooper added: “Disgraceful assault on Nigel Farage today. Completely unacceptable and wrong. No one should face intimidation or assault in an election campaign.”

A member of staff at the Wetherspoons where the incident occurred suggested the yob could have been lying in wait for the politician to arrive for an hour.

Hundreds of people had gathered to watch Mr Farage’s campaign launch, chanting his name and treating him like a political rockstar. Some even carried placards declaring they wanted him to become Prime Minister.

Shouts from the crowd included “get ‘em Nige” and “we love you Nigel”.

The Brexit architect, standing on a makeshift stage in front of Clacton Pier’s ferris wheel, vowed to “stand up and fight” for the people of Clacton and urged them to become a “people’s army against the establishment”.

Speaking to reporters after the event, Mr Farage said: “My aim is for the centre-right of British politics to realign and it can’t do that under the current Conservative Party. There needs to be a change.

“If there was a model, and it may sound ambitious, it would be Canada about 30 years ago.”

Asked if that meant a new main centre-right party, Mr Farage admitted: “Yes.

“What I do know, without a strong Reform, without millions of votes, without seats in Parliament, it won’t happen.”

The new Reform UK leader insisted he had never said he wanted to “destroy” the Conservative Party.

But he called for a “political revolt” and a “proper” opposition.

Addressing a large crowd in the seat he will fight for on July 4, the Reform leader said: “I will stand up and fight for you, I will give you my best and I will do what I have done for the last quarter of a century in politics.

“I had to decide, do I want to stand as a Member of Parliament and spend every Friday working in Clacton? Huge decision for me, huge decision for me, I’ve decided, I do.

“They supported me hugely in the Brexit referendum campaign, and they want someone to stand up for their beliefs, and they don’t see that in today’s Conservative Party, they certainly don’t see that in today’s Labour Party.

“I will be unafraid, despite what everybody says, despite what names they call me, they are so stupid it only encourages me really, in fact, send me to Parliament to be a bloody nuisance.”

He claimed the Tories had “betrayed” the trust of voters and added: “They opened up the borders to mass immigration like we have never seen before and they deserve to pay a price for that. A big price for that.”

Up to six Conservative candidates are said to be considering switching to Reform for the upcoming election after Mr Farage’s dramatic intervention to stand in this election.

But Mr Farage declared: “I’m not that interested in Tory MPs. What I’m interested in is the great British public, and whether they agree with my view that it is time for a revolt.

“It’s time for a political revolt. Labour and the Conservatives, they are both big state, SDP, high tax parties.”

He had earlier told supporters at the rally: “I hope having a national figure representing this constituency will put Clacton on the map. No longer will you be at the end of the line, no longer will you be ignored.

“This election effectively is over. That breach of trust from the Conservatives means they are finished, they’re done. We are going to get a Labour government whether you like it or not.

“The question is: who is going to be the voice of opposition? I want Reform UK with me at the helm to be in Parliament and I promise you, I promise you I’ll liven it up a lot from what it currently is.”

“You won’t get any woke PC nonsense from me because I’ve always told it as it is and stood up for what I believe in.

“But I want to ask this of you. Coming along, enjoying the circus, agreeing with me is one thing but what we need is to reactivate a people’s army, a people’s army against the establishment, a people’s army who want to get this country back on track.”

Mr Farage again repeated calls for net migration to fall to 0 – meaning as many people leave the UK as they do arrive each year.

And this pledge is central to his offering to voters. He insisted he does not “believe” the Conservatives’ pledge to cap the number of migrants coming to the UK.

The Reform UK leader added: "We cannot go on like this, it is a disaster for our country and it's been dividing our country."

And he stressed the “priority” to end the small boats crisis was to dramatically increase the number of migrants deported to their home countries.

“The priority is deportation. We used to be able to do this.

“We’re not doing it now. And the growing activism of the ECHR is what is making that.

“Nobody that comes illegally will ever be allowed to stay.

“If you’re from Syria, you go back to Syria. Some people won’t like that, but that is what it has to be.”
