Talks: Mr Farage had spoken with the protester as he campaigned for Thursday's Aberdeen Donside by-election Confrontation: Mr Farage had tried to talk to the group but was targetted with a fizzy drink as he walked into the pub After a day on the campaign trail with around 30 UKIP activists, Mr Farage had gone to the pub for his trademark pint at around 6pm. He went outside to speak to a small group of protesters, who had been chanting 'fascist' at UKIP members. He spoke to them for around quarter of an hour before deciding to return to his pint.

Repeat: Last month Mr Farage had to be escorted by police from a pub in Edinburgh after the Cannons Gait pub in Edinburgh was surrounded by protestors Mr Farage said blamed a 'narrative' in Scotland that 'UKIP's voice shouldn't be heard here.' He added: 'Every attempt is being made to stop us from speaking. I've never come across anything like it in all of my life anywhere in Britain, Europe or the world for that matter. The idea that you can disagree with someone's point of view but you have it out and debate these things and let the public judge is what the democratic process is all about. There is something quite unpleasant going on. I think frankly the police are a little bit nervous, because some of the things that happened in Edinburgh were really quite nasty.
