Radio New Zealand reports:
The Australian teenager who smashed an egg onto the head of Fraser Anning says he has donated more than $100,000 [$70K USD] to the survivors of the Christchurch terrorist attack.
Will Connolly, whose act gained him the nickname Egg Boy on social media, said the money was raised through crowdfunding to cover his legal fees after he egged Mr Anning at a 16 March rally in Melbourne.
Footage of the incident showed Mr Connolly watching Mr Anning from the sidelines before he started filming with his mobile phone, and then smashing the egg on the back of the former senator’s head.
ABC News reports:
Covered in egg yolk, Anning, video showed, struck back at the Connelly, punching and kicking at the teen until being fully restrained. Connelly was tackled and put in a chokehold.
Anning, a conservative representing Queensland, is known for speaking out against immigration and in the past has actually used the words “final solution” — a phrase used by Nazis — while discussing Muslims’ immigrating to Australia.
The shooting in New Zealand killed 50. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern almost immediately vowed to change the nation’s gun laws. The gun laws were soon changed.
Anning lost his seat in last week’s election.
