Germany‘s former finance minister Christian Lindner was slapped with a cake that he said was made out of soap during a campaign trail speech in Greifswald on Thursday, 9 January.
The Free Democratic Party leader was speaking at a campaign event for his party when a woman appeared on stage and threw a plate of soap foam in his face.
As he wiped soap the foam off and threw some on the woman’s hair, Mr Lindner said: “Unfortunately, it wasn’t cream, it was just soap… you could have done that better, then I would have got something out of it.”
