The incident occurred as Reform UK leader Farage was on the top deck of his open-topped campaign bus in Barnsley, northern England, yesterday. South Yorkshire Police said they had charged Josh Greally, 28, with using threatening, abusive, insulting words and behaviour with intent to cause fear or provoke unlawful violence.It is the second time in a week that Farage has been targeted on the campaign trail, with a 25-year-old woman charged last week with throwing a milkshake at him.
Video footage of the latest incident shows Farage ducking for cover as a white object hits the bus, before a man in a red hoodie picks up what appears to be a coffee cup from a bin and throws it at him.It then shows the man engage in a brief scuffle with what appears to be a group of workmen before being tackled by police.“I will not be bullied or cowed by a violent left-wing mob who hate our country,” he later wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
