Whichever way you look at it, the woman knew exactly what she was doing i.e. trespassing by gatecrashing a private function. There was probably an error by security staff which allowed her access.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-48718725 Why is he suspended? He should be applauded for having the guts to take on the intruder. She was trying to rush to the front, he had no idea of her intentions. Well done Mark Field.

@Paul "Get your Trump 2020 supporter apparel here" Yes, that cap is ideal if you are out somewhere and caught short so you can have a good 'd**p' in it. 'Trump for a Dump'. Good slogan.
