欧洲议会选举之际，为防止抗议人群向英国脱欧派人士攻击，英国警方要求部分麦当劳餐厅暂停售卖奶昔等产品。然而，这一幕还是发生了。

　　Furious Mr Farage could be heard moaning of his bodyguards' "complete failure" as they whisked him away, adding: "You could have spotted that a mile away" and "How could this happen?".

　　事后人们听到法拉奇愤怒地抱怨保安无能，说道：“老远就能看到那个(奶昔)”“怎么会这样?”

　　He told reporters the Five Guys banana and salted caramel shake was "yobbo flavoured" - and he reportedly gave a statement to Northumbria Police who arrested the alleged assailant.

　　泼到法拉奇身上的是一杯来自美国快餐Five Guys的香蕉咸焦糖奶昔。

　　Mr Farage dubbed his soaking an "affront to democracy" and later tweeted: "Sadly some remainers have become radicalised, to the extent that normal campaigning is becoming impossible.

　　此后法拉奇发推谈及此事件表示，一些反脱欧份子太过激进。

　　"For a civilised democracy to work you need the losers consent, politicians not accepting the referendum result have led us to this."

　　Later he was defended by political opponents including Theresa May and Tony Blair who spoke out against the use of violence.
