    Of greater concern is that this is the kind of behaviour that ultimately leads to incidents such as the death of Jo Cox. Normalising this kind of aggressive abuse towards anyone, which includes claiming it was funny, just banter or other dismissive remarks, can easily lead to an escalation that ultimately ends in serious physical assault or death. Female MP's in particular have been the subject of this kind of abuse for years, with many of them receiving regular threats from the Speaker of the house of commons.

    Yes you're quite right, and I wasn't aware when I made the inital post that there was any aggression there today - but it turns out there was, and I don't think that is funny at all.

    You know mods, if you are not happy with this thread, please delete it - I am not wanting to cross political sensitivities for the sake of it. Well not today anyway

    It seemed from the videos I posted to be rather immature and silly, so yes I found it funny. However subsequently on the news was some other footage from the same time that seemed somewhat malicious - not so amusing.
    MP's shouldn't be abused this way in public, to be fair.
