The fallout from a real estate agent allegedly hitting the Chief Minister in the face with a cream-filled crepe appears to have reached peak madness, with Suzi Milgate now banned by NT Parliament amid claims of “terrorist” behaviour and the makers of CU in the NT t-shirts issuing a limited edition “cream pie” shirt to commemorate the assault.
It is the latest in the saga which began on Sunday morning, when Chief Minister Natasha Fyles was allegedly pied by Ms Milgate while leaving a bank at the Nightcliff markets, which kicked off a media circus including a bizarre video taken by the NT News of the NT Police’s chief suspect Ms Milgate, in which she admitted only to a “slight error” and repeatedly referred to a “fresh cream pie” not meeting the threshold for assault.
‘Terrorism’ really, has Medley actually served in an anti terrorism role?
[fact]
Classic case of vindictive fools. Fyles would have got more mileage out of humility and sitting down for mediation. Instead she shows her full nastiness.
I can’t condone violence against politicians. Mock them and force them to flee public spaces… but don’t assault them.
Having said that, our politicians are supposed to govern for all of us and this sort of reaction can only be expected when politicians turn their back on segments of the public.
How long can we be abused by politicians before the people start striking back… fresh cream and all?
Understandable… yet unacceptable. Don’t go assaulting politicians, people. Please.

this, just like their other controversial t-shirts, is in poor taste.
it’s weird to portray the (logical) question about a ‘concerted attack’ as conspiratorial.
but then skip over Ms Milgate’s irrational confusion over the Bendigo Bank’s anniversary event.
““So why did they have, with a politician a bank opening on a Sunday? It doesn’t add up to me,” she said.
