If it had been a Conservative, UKIP in fact any MP,I would still have been one for certain who would have expressed the same horror and disgust.

I would certainly too still be calling for any 77 year old man who went to try to help and got stabbed himself, to be given one of the highest awards for doing so.
I'd never even dream of bringing politics into it as to what party the MP was from, my disgust was at the senseless brutal murder of that MP who was another human being.

I think you and others may well have been massively surprised at the response from others,(no need to pre-judge people),even had it been a Conservative or any other MP, because most people wouldn't even think on those lines at the news of such a brutal and cruel end to anyone's life.

I would not for sure,and certainly will not either, want to qualify what award he should get either,for me none is too great in fact.
Also probably the gentleman himself is not even thinking he warrants one himself.

Even less likely would he want any big honour, if he came across people on party lines begrudging him certain ones.
Sick, it is bad enough someone lost their young life so cruelly.
