🎨🚓It started as a paint protest and ended as a full-blown performance piece titled “Britain, But Make It Eggshell.” Police in Brighton found themselves dodging tins of Farrow & Ball’s finest — pelted with premium paint in what can only be described as the most middle-class melee ever recorded.

Witnesses report a scene that looked part DIY SOS, part Apocalypse Now. Officers emerged splattered in “Hague Blue” and “Elephant’s Breath,” the poshest war paint in Sussex history. One man was eventually carried out on a stretcher amid concerns for his mental health — proof that even luxury decor can drive people up the wall, literally.

And somewhere in a design showroom, a PR intern is wondering whether to spin this as “immersive brand engagement.”

Still, let’s be real: it’s peak Britain when public disorder comes in a tasteful matte finish. Policemen in riot gear, but make it boutique.
