Shots outside of parliament

Apparently he, Trevor Brooks, is still in prison according to his brother.

If it wasn't him, he's got a nice windfall coming his way when he sues all the people saying it was him for libel

Haha, brilliant, you don't even see that claiming it's a lone wolf attack is an apologist's excuse. You are thicker than three short planks, let alone two.

So anyone calling Thomas Mair a lone wolf is an apologist.

[NickFitz]

Doesn't seem to stack up though, according to BBC he was convicted in 2008, got 4.5 years and was released early anyway. Even if he served the full 4.5 years he'd be out. Unless he's been jailed for something else subsequently...

He has indeed been jailed for something else subsequently: Islamic extremists jailed for "serious and deliberate" breach of counter-terrorism restrictions - Mirror Online

A BBC journalist has also tweeted that he's still in jail, though I don't think that's official.

Over-excited journalists no doubt

They're only round the corner from Parliament, aren't they? C4 is anyway, I dunno where they do the news from.

Bet they'd be really annoyed if people said all Brexiteers were violent murderous thugs because of the actions of one person

Fortunately we can distinguish between radical and moderate Brexiteers.

After the shock, the anger, the numbness, the sadness, the real question in most people's minds has to be answered.

How much was the terrorist's car worth?
