      Thank you. At this point, let's just keep her family in our thoughts and not speculate on motivations or implications because we know almost nothing at this stage.

        Nutters never help the cause they favour.

        Never heard of her but reading the obituary she seemed like a more honest politician than most.

        Do MPs get security? I guess they might after this.
        Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

          Unless there's a credible threat, or they're high profile, they don't get much. This from about 6 months ago British MPs to receive 'enhanced' security measures for homes and offices amid rising terror fears | UK Politics | News | The Independent

              Well she is either the most unluckiest person in the world to have been killed randomly by someone who just turned up with a gun and a knife or she was targeted for her beliefs... Isn't a huge step to take in the land of presumption of the possible reasons why this has happened...

              Either way its disgusting... Two kids have lost their mum today for doing nothing more than her job...

                Been to Batley a lot, mrs worked there and still goes to gym there, very Pakistani but always seems quiet and trouble free apart from the pissed up yobs at Frontierland nightclub come chucking out time (and getting in time come to think of it).

                Awful....

                  The BBC said the attacker went on to hurt someone else, someone in their 70's...

                    Not quite. It only takes a local to take a dislike to their MP especially a local who is mentally unwell... Heck I see enough people having a go at my MP and she doesn't deserve any of the comments she gets...
