While addressing reporters, Steven Joyce, a leading New Zealand politician, was hit in the face by a flying sex toy. The pink rubber phallus bounced off and appeared to cause Joyce, the country’s economic development minister, no harm.
According to the BBC, the dildo was thrown by a woman who was protesting the Trans Pacific Partnership trade deal, the U.S.-led initiative that the Kiwi government had ratified only a few days before.
“That’s for raping our sovereignty,” the protester, identified as Josie Butler, is reported to have shouted.
