Poor man....and his poor family.

This is all the more shocking because Labour MP Stephen Timms was stabbed too doing his constituency work, at his office.
That was in 2010.

MPs do need to be careful and be more protected.
There's crazy idiots around who you never know what they may do.

There has to be found to be ways for an MP to be at their constituency surgeries safely.

This is devastating news.
2 MPs brutally murdered as arista says, in the last 5 years.

Sickening, it's just sick.

Yes But this Evil 25 year old
kept stabbing him.
The Medics had to try to save him in that Church.

I thought it would an old bloke killer

25 years old Evil Killer
arrested.
It is sick, as you say.

So sad. What a senseless tragedy. :sad:

He was a good MP for Basildon too.
From 1983 to 1997.
38 years an MP.

This is horrifying how cruelly his life has been taken from him.

Yes he was MP for Basildon when I lived there and was highly thought of

Southend Police to give a Statement
soon.



Johnson PM has just made a statement.
both news channels.

Awful news, we're going to be at the point now that MPs will be understandably terrified of meeting their own constituents in public

5 children a wife and dogs

so very sad

Police are Live
the County Terrorism Unit are in charge,
for now.

The 25 year is arrested
and they have his knife.

He asked please respect his Family
at this time.

Stabbed more than a dozen times
SkyNewsHD reporter said.

Heartbreaking.

We clearly need to give mp’s more protection
Theresa may still has two cars with armed police to escort her to London
But she was in a little cafe in a garden centre the other day were my sister saw her.

The Home Secretary
has asked Police
to review all MP's offices/surgeries

Look like zoom going to be the safe option for now on

Yeah exactly, what a sorry state to be in.

Just horrific what’s happened. Poor man.

SkyNewsHD reports he is from Somali Heritage

Tbf I wouldn't blame them either.

RIP
