It was a setup. The woman is the girlfriend of a reform party member. Farage has form for this sort of publicity stunt.

Farage is all anyone is talking about at the moment, the stunt seems to have worked.
Edit
According to the BBC a woman’s been charged, so it seems like the initial skepticism was misplaced.
while i’m inclined to believe you, some sort of source or even the woman’s name would help a lot….
Of course, you’re right. I’ve edited my post to include what I read earlier.
thank you 🎩👌
