A man has been charged with using threatening behaviour after objects were thrown at the Reform UK party leader Nigel Farage.
The incident occurred while Mr Farage was on an open-top bus, campaigning in Barnsley in South Yorkshire on Tuesday.
Police said Josh Greally, 28, had been charged with using threatening, abusive, insulting words and behaviour with intent to cause fear.
He has been released on bail to appear before Barnsley Magistrates’ Court on 26 June.
A man in a red hoodie could be seen shouting from a construction area, before reaching into a bucket and throwing objects, both of which missed.
Mr Farage, speaking while campaigning in Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, said the incident was “pretty nasty”.
