Eyewitness tells reporters he didn't hear anyone shout "Britain first", saying: "Never heard that".

Almost definitely not a Muslim, then. That will disappoint some.

How on earth does he make himself available to constituents then Ohso? Or does he leave it all up to his case workers?

And they accuse Corbynistas of being monomaniacal and obsessed.......

I read it earlier and thought how gratuitously shitty it was to include it in a supposed profile. The G seems able to scrape lower in the barrel that we thought.

Refers to "Labour's poor performance" as well - in the local elections it was very much in line with previous outcomes a year after a GE.

Just can't help themselves can they........

As with Orlando, how this scumbag justified the hate in his putrid heart does not interest me in the slightest

And knowing whether or not this killing has something to do with that choice, has equally enormous consequences for this country and that future we are falling towards, headfirst, with frightening rapidity.

For the last few years we have been subject to wall to wall saturation of xenophobia and racism in the media, a PM reffering to refugees as swarms, Farage popping up on the BBC at any given moment to advertise his cause.

Until we know for sure what the murderer's motive was I'm keeping an open mind though, but there has been a climate which has been allowed to develop that a lot of people in high places should bear a responsibility for, I don't like the way things are going. Not one bit.

Today is the beginning of a new chapter in our lives. More difficult, more painful, less joyful, less full of love. I and Jo’s friends and family are going to work every moment of our lives to love and nurture our kids and to fight against the hate that killed Jo.

Jo believed in a better world and she fought for it every day of her life with an energy, and a zest for life that would exhaust most people.

She would have wanted two things above all else to happen now, one that our precious children are bathed in love and two, that we all unite to fight against the hatred that killed her. Hate doesn’t have a creed, race or religion, it is poisionous.

Jo would have no regrets about her life, she lived every day of it to the full.

W. Bush didn't lose the opportunity to use tragedy unrelated to justify a deadly military excursion elsewhere. Didn't take him two weeks, in fact.
