Just a bloke, out doing his job, and killed. Presume he’ll have devastated kids, grandkids and friends too. Truly awful and nothing to do with politics. RIP.
Yeah as much as I hate the Conservatives Nd all they stand for this is very human tragedy and we should all treat it with respect.
Terrible news - and tragic for his friends and family, not good for his constituents either. All this will do is make MP's more reluctant to face the public which is just a very bad outcome
Murder is murder no place for it. Disagree with folk and if there's wrong doing hope the law takes care of it. No place for this. Will be interested to see what the motive was for this, and who this 25 year old murderer is.
My sisters MP poor bloke , nothing in common politically but by all accounts a decent constituency MP
Awful news and very tragic , my thoughts are with David’s family and friends . Apart from the personal tragedy these events brings it also has consequences on our democracy. It is becoming almost unsustainable that the link we have to easy access to government . This is not only a Tragedy for David’s family but for our nation and democracy imo.
After Jo Cox, security should have been provided to MPs not just to Ministers. Society is a mess, divided and extremists are emboldened by it.
Announcement 5 mins ago just died. Weapon retrieved suspect arrested suspicion of murder. Time to bring back death penalty
An excerpt from a book he wrote last year. How awful that this should happen to him. This is terrorism and an assault on our democracy.
