Milkshake is the edible tool of protest du jour, with Nigel Farage as its latest creamy victim. But the practice of chucking food at people you disagree with is an ancient art. So what does your choice of edible dissent say about YOU?
Good morrow, sirrah! You are some kind of Elizabethan or Jacobean urchin. You are usually found in the open-air pit of the Globe, getting drenched, grumbling that “no wonder the tickets are only five groats”, lobbing rotten tomatoes at the actors you think deliver laboured Shakespearean jokes with the least conviction. Sometimes you get bored of the theatre and go and no-platform some good-for-nothing knave in the stocks with the full passata treatment. Can’t believe they’re still giving these guys a pillory. Bloody BBC.
