This forensic analysis of Brexit Milkshake Man is the funniest episode of CSI: Twitter
During the UK European Parliament elections on Thursday, an unfortunate incident occurred, involving an elderly Brexit Party volunteer, Don McNaughton, who could be from their Youth Wing, for all we know.
What reportedly happened was that a “yob” threw milkshake at the ex-military man, resulting in quite a mess – and outraged tweets like this:
This elderly gentleman served in the British armed forces for 22 years.
Today he was manning a Brexit Party polling station when he was attacked & had milkshake thrown all over him.
All because he wants the result of a democratic referendum to be honoured.
Disgusting. pic.twitter.com/1vZMHM31M2— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) May 23, 2019
There was widespread condemnation of the attack, as well as some pisstaking.
This gentleman served 22 years in the British Forces, the same forces the fight to protect our right to vote.
He chose to vote for the Brexit Party & some moron threw a milkshake at him.
I don’t agree with his political stance, but I respect his right to have it.
Not funny! pic.twitter.com/n5nRHEBQBd

This brave Brexit party supporter had strawberry milkshake thrown at her today outside a polling station. She was minding their own business shouting at disgusting remainer traitors when the unprovoked attack happened pic.twitter.com/ofbnW1pSvP

This old guy was sitting outside a polling station in Aldershot doing the numbers for the Brexit Party and apparently it was okay to attack him because he was a 'fascist'. Congratulations, everyone. #EUelections2019 pic.twitter.com/8sIra6BctO

Before long, however, some doubt crept in …
Picture posted without any evidence of the actual act. Therefore no idea who, what, where, when whether, nothing re the circs. In my experience, chuckers and egg-splatterers film themselves because they are self-indulgent plonkers. Whiff of Bannon playbook here https://t.co/zFHaiCB4S1

It's all so well crafted.
8am milkshake attack in an army town. Yeah, right.
Quick national media coverage, but no suspect identified.
Looks like carefully smeared yoghurt.
New photo op organised. Appeal to armeh veteran fetishists.

Then, someone called Harvey – @harveyschmacker – posted a thread of his analysis of the scene, and it could have been an exposition on C.S.I.

He began by analysing the splatter pattern.
Look at the splatter from a thrown milkshake over Farage, the force from the milkshake flying through the air with high velocity has caused the milkshake to go over Farage from top to bottom pic.twitter.com/d2eAdVIAA0

The same large covering shows on Tommy too, also note in both milkshake incidents how the milkshake has a liquid consistency and trails down their men of the people suits pic.twitter.com/MRmV9Fry8p

Now back to Brexit Party Milkshake Man. Having a closer look, you can see how much thicker the milkshake thrown over him is, there’s barely any of the signature trails of falling milkshake like the previous example. pic.twitter.com/GK8dPaH37L

This firstly, puts doubt to this being thrown over him. If it was thrown at any distance he would show more of a covering, not just located to his stomach area. If this was indeed thrown, the unknown thrower was very damn close.
