Comedian Jo Brand says ‘throw BATTERY ACID at politicians instead of milkshakes’ (UK)

COMEDIAN Jo Brand has been slammed after saying politicians should have battery acid thrown at them instead of milkshakes.

The telly star, 61, was appearing on BBC Radio 4 when she joked about recent milkshake attacks on politicians such as Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage.

Farage, who had milkshake thrown on him while campaigning in Newcastle ahead of the EU elections last month, called for police to take action over 'incitement of violence'.

Speaking on the Heresy show last night, Brand said: “Certain unpleasant characters are being thrown to the fore, and they’re very, very easy to hate.

“And I’m kind of thinking, why bother with a milkshake when you could get some battery acid?”

She added: "That’s just me, sorry, I’m not gonna do it, it’s purely a fantasy. But I think milkshakes are pathetic, I honestly do. Sorry."

That’s leftist humor for you, their desire to maim and eliminate anyone who thinks differently just waiting to burst out

You know, I detested Obama, but I would never encourage people to harm him. Indict him, prosecute him, imprison him if he is found guilty...

You kill someone or harm them, and they become a martyr.

Besides, that’s not the form of justice we advocate.

This individual is so far out of bounds, it seems actionable.

Isn’t this some form of incitement to do something illegal?

She looks 81. She should be concentrating on getting in shape.

What a hateful person.
Let’s see how funny she thinks it is when somebody does that to her using the exact same rationale.

It’s going to happen. Just a matter of time, tragically.

I saw the films of the doughy pajama boy who threw a milkshake at Farage.

Why didn’t his security at least punch the cretin in the face a couple times. At the time, how could they know what kind of threat he was?

No one was allowed to even make fun of the Fraud and stay employed afterwards.

I hate to be the grammar police, but you left the quotation marks off the word Comedian.

You know this is where this is going. Will the left still chuckle when it is urine or HIV-tainted blood?
