Talking of Farage.... He has to have security wherever he goes due to lefty nutters like class war that cannot even leave him in peace to enjoy a Sunday Lunch with his family down the pub. I have often thought his life might be in danger.

I am surprised that somebody hasn't taken things a bit too far with MP's and Politicians before this incident, as people take matters too seriously and can't debate peacefully these days.

With regard to this incident, it is of course a sad day (and I apologise for my earlier attempt at black humour to lighten the mood) BUT none of us know this man's motives and it is all conjecture.

By his very actions you can deduce he is not of a sound mind but little else at this stage.

A nearby bystander claims he heard the man say "Britain First" Or "Put Britain first".... he wasn't sure what he heard.

Now people are latching onto that as "fact" and are blaming the Leave campaign and Farage for her death, which is ridiculously unfair. I read and heard on the News that this MP had had problems a while back with abusive messages sent to her which the Police were aware of, so why no security?

Whatever the guys motives I think people will probably react by deciding to vote Remain if they were undecided and this incident has probably shaped the future of the campaign and the result.

RIP Jo Cox MP

One of those things. The guy was probably something of a timebomb in society, ticking away. The combination of politics and the national fervour over the referendum, can feed into mental health issues, resulting sometimes in an 'explosion'

The fact she was on the river the day before with her husband and children. They could have easily been with her yesterday, doesn't bear thinking about. Also sounds miraculous no one else was hurt or injured

The guy that heard it wasn't sure if it was "Britain First" or "Put Britain first".

As you say, two entirely different meanings.

I didn't hear any reference to the assailant having links to 'Far Right European Groups', all I heard was that he was a bit of a loner, but liked gardening and helping others.

I think we should all wait until the Police have interviewed him before we decide/conclude what his motive was.

Jumping to conclusions and having knee jerk reactions will not help the situation.

Any of it proven though, or is it just conjecture?

How so? And I mean that genuinely - whether it was 'Britain First' or 'Put Britain First', either would confirm a political motivation.
