A SKANKY model has just walked free from court after assaulting a politician. All of us, no matter what our own political beliefs, should be angered by this.
The incident happened on June 4 this year. Nigel Farage, now the leader of Reform UK, had been out campaigning in his Essex constituency of Clacton.
He emerged from a Wetherspoons pub and standing in front of him was 25-year- old Victoria Thomas Bowen.
She hurled a banana milkshake into his face. And, for good measure, shouted “f***ing c**t” at him.
Farage was drenched, and so was his security guard.
In court, the skank — and I use the term deliberately — said she had thrown the milkshake because she disagreed with Farage’s politics.
Oh well, that’s all right then.
She didn’t spell out which of his policies she found annoying.
My guess is she did it as much to get some publicity for her OnlyFans modelling page.
The judge in the case, a bloke called Tanweer Ikram, gently ticked her off.
And gave her a suspended sentence — 13 weeks’ jail suspended for 12 months.
Bowen’s lawyers were delighted.
One of them whined about the incident: “She has suffered multiple threats since this happened, which have had a serious impact on her mental health.”
Don’t care. Shouldn’t have done it, should she.
But the lawyer added: “Victoria understands the impact of her actions and wishes to put the whole episode behind her.
“She hopes others can do the same.”
Nope, I’ll not be putting the episode behind me. I think pretty much the same as Nigel Farage, who said: “We now live in a country where you can assault a member of Parliament and not go to prison — the latest example of two-tier justice.”
That’s exactly the case. A man who egged Magic Grandpa, a.k.a. Jeremy Corbyn, when he was out campaigning got 28 days in prison — not suspended.
But we have become used to this sort of thing.
Tweet something a bit nasty and right of centre and you can get banged up for almost three years.
Actually attack someone on the Right — and there’s virtually no censure at all.
It occurs more and more often, that our judiciary in general is biased.
It is pro people who have the same political views as the judges — right-on and lefty — and clobbers anyone who ever dares to challenge that viewpoint.
You can see that in the vast discrepancies between what happened to the Black Lives Matter demonstrators and those who took to the streets back in June to protest about immigration.
You can see it in Tanweer Ikram’s track record, too.
Some of his verdicts in the past have caused controversy for being pro-Hamas and anti-police. So there is a two-tier system at work, beyond very much doubt.
But the real issue here is the need to protect our politicians from maniacs, jihadis, and violent and self-righteous lefties.
As well as women who are after a bit of publicity.
Has Judge Ikram forgotten the murders of Conservative MP Sir David Amess and Labour MP Jo Cox?
Every day our politicians — all of them — are subjected to the most vile abuse and threats. From deranged members of the public.
They need protection.
When cases like this come to court, there should be only one possible outcome — jail.
Judge Ikram has let down our democracy. Like Bowen, he should be ashamed.
I HOPE the deeply troubled young people who wish to “transition” read the story of American woman Prisha Mosley.
She was given puberty blockers and testosterone as a kid. She also had a double mastectomy.
She is now suing the clinics where these awful medical interventions took place.
Like almost all those who experience body dysmorphia, she had a whole bunch of mental- health issues going on.
She said: “I was under the misconception that it was possible to change sex, and I thought I would never want children or change my mind about living as a man. But I grew up and realised I’d made a terrible mistake.”
It is time we stopped all this nonsense, completely and utterly.
There are two sexes – men and women.
And you can’t change your chromosomes.
POOR old Lester Harvey.
American Lester, a Virginian, was out on a bear hunt.
He and his mates found a bear, one of them shot it and the bear fell out of the tree right on top of Harvey.
Killed the bloke stone dead. Bad luck, I suppose. Although the lesson I would take from it is: Don’t shoot bears, because one way or another the bear might get its own back.
Even if it doesn’t, you’ll still be regarded by the civilised world as a t**t.
HERE’S something to be proud of.
Monthly inflation in the UK is now higher than it is in Argentina.
Given that the poor old Argies had an inflation rate of more than 200 per cent, that’s some going.
Why have things changed?
Because Argentina has a canny president, called Javier Milei. He’s told the country: “There is no more money,” and been ruthless in cutting back government programmes.
Inflation has come down by a remarkable amount in Argentina and soon everyone will be feeling a lot better off.
Meanwhile, we have Chancellor Rachel Reeves.
Inflation in the UK had been coming down gradually under the Tories. But as soon as Labour get in, look what happens.
One day we’re going to have to take the same sort of action as Senor Milei. We have too many people claiming benefits, too few working and too much public expenditure.
JUST how sorry do you feel for Prince Andrew?
He’s been banished from spending Christmas at Sandringham with the rest of the Royal Family.
So he’s going to have to fill his stocking himself – Mr Men soaps, Toblerone, gummy bears, and so on.
And open the presents he has sent to himself while watching Gavin & Stacey and chewing on a pig in a blanket.
Bit joyless, isn’t it.
He is in trouble not because he has done anything wrong, but because on the famous Lammy Scale of Intelligence, he ranks a ten out of ten for mind- numbing stupidity.
But we knew this when we used him for years as a trade envoy.
Which is why he spent most of his life playing golf in Arab states with appalling people.
Andrew isn’t really bad, the man is just very, very thick.
