Honestly.
You are trying to tell me, you didn't know he was a Conservative MP.
When the very first headlines stated either Tory MP or Cabinet Minister.

I reiterate.
Had this have been a Labour MP.
You and others would have branded him a thug and representative of left wing Labour extremism.

From the first seconds of this being made known, the one clear headline was he is a Conservative MP.

Someone would need to be on a desert island not to have known that from the start.

Then you in your last section go on to make a further veiled defence of him.
The protesters were annoying but not there to harm or manhandle anyone.
He did, only him.
No one else.

She's okay about it now but was shaken at the time.
You completely unfairly overlook that.

You were absolutely right in your opening line however.
For me to prepare to be astounded again.
I certainly am and totally dismayed staring in disbelief too.
