Quote: People who are condoning the "milk shaking" are implying that physical violence against politicians is acceptable.In a democracy you argue and debate and vote, you don’t use violence. But in the view of those cheering the assault, violence is acceptable.What impact do you think this message you are supporting will have on some angry members of the public who think Brexit-betraying Labour and Tory MPs are traitors.You can’t claim that a handful of men shouting in Anna Soubry’s face outside Parliament is an outrage against the democratic process but the assaulting of other electoral candidates is fine.
I don't condone anybody throwing anything at anybody.
Anna Soubry has been given death threats, as have many other 'traitors'. One of which was carried out.
Here's a quote from SYL picked up by RTE in 2016
“If the cameras aren’t there, fucking punch the geezers right in the head,” he said, adding that being seen to be aggressive “just turns people off”. “You want to be seen as the victims – people viewing you like: ‘Fucking hell, look how they’re getting treated. Give them a chance’ – you know what I mean?”
So, best to stop throwing milkshakes. It's just what he wants.
