On a related theme, I think the 77 year old pensioner Bernard Carter-Kenny, who tried to save Joe Cox, and was stabbed in the abdomen deserves a medal, maybe even the George Cross.

As of yet, there are no real facts apart from the fact that a mother of 2 was killed doing her job. What we purportedly know is that:
- he may be mentally disturbed
- he may well have been a member of far right groups
- he may have had extremist far right tendencies
Presumably he'll be tried as a common criminal but will the press label it as a terrorist incident? I only ask because of this: Leytonstone Tube station stabbing a 'terrorist incident' - BBC News. In fact the perpetrator was also mentally disturbed but just happened to be a member of the Muslim community: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_L...station_attack
Whatever happens, I hope that he never walks free and that extremist right wing organisations are given the same treatment as other extremist organisations“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
