Labour MP Jo Cox shot

Unbelievably dignified comments given the circumstances.

RIP ,a truly hardworking and lovely lady .

 

I thought his words, at such a terrible time in his life, were extremely moving and absolutely spot on, especially with regards to hate.
R.I.P. Jo.

 

So sad - thoughts are with the family at this dreadful time. Too much hate around at the moment

 

Not making any political point at all

 

A bloke was gunned down just the other week, just a couple of miles away from where I live. From what I can gather, he was waved towards a car on his own street, kids in the street playing.. when he walked over, crouching a little to see who was in the car, the window of the passenger side was wound down and he was blasted in the head point blank.

Fck, that's horrible. Doesn't change the fact though that gun crime is immensely rare in the UK. Not that it will be any consolation to that poor bloke's family and friends. Looks like an underworld style hit to me. Very similar to something that happened to a friend of a friend in Sheffield on New Year's Day about 15 years ago, who was a well-known player in a line of business which involved imports from South America.

 

Asian lads at work knew him. He was a dealer. The killer was a bigger dealer. So they tell me.

 

What was the point of the "Britain first" bit then?

Just for a bit of "apparent" background information?

 

Wow. That's a lot of information from someone who wasn't there.

How about telling us more about the engagement do....

 

Guy was mentally ill. The failings go beyond just him. Such a sad sad crime but maybe, just maybe, now such a high profile crime has been committed perhaps they will look seriously at the mental health in this country. Under funded to the extreme.

 

I don't think Redstar was suggesting the words "Britain First" was evidence of mental instability.

Or maybe he was.

 

Just reporting what's been reported.

Cool your jets

 

Didn't think he was. Although you do have to be "challenged" to support groups like Britain first. By sounds of it the guy was mentally ill, whatever he shouted.

Those two poor kids now have to grow up without a mother. Their only comfort is their mother sounds like an incredible person they can be very proud of.

What is also abhorant is any political point scoring.

I'm sure that if the nutter had shouted "Trotsky's a ******" you would have been the first on here to share it with us.
