      I mean… Yeah? This is the UK, the vast majority of people are white. Statistically its very likely to be someone white.

        That’s my point. All the daily heil deformers were on about how it had to be a brown person and how immigrants are all criminals, and once again the actual culprit turned out to be one of theirs, another white british guy.

    Taylor said it remained the case that investigators were not looking for anyone else in connection with the incident.

    He added that counter terrorism teams have gathered “a huge amount of information” over the last week, leading to more than 800 lines of enquiry.

    Yeah that doesn’t add up.

    This man travels a significant distance to kill a no longer politically active non-high ranking politician. The police openly admit they don’t have a motive and yet they feel confident enough to arrest him on charges of terrorism. But also despite the fact that they don’t know the why they do know they’re not looking for anyone else?

    I suspect what’s happened is that this idiot was on a watch list, he managed to give them the slip and went and killed her, for reasons that probably only makes sense to him, and now they’re trying to cover up their screw up, so now he’s a terrorist. He’s probably just bonkers, People tend to focus their delusions on important figures like politicians, I knew someone who was utterly convinced that Tony Blair was hiding information in his speeches specifically for him.

      Or the British security services have finally learned from the Americans how to groom mentally ill people, give them a weapon or a bomb and point them towards someone or someplace. Oven-ready terrorist.

          I’m in “pure paranoid conspiracy mode” here and wearing a tin foil hat… but there’s something of a synchronicity about Farage trying to use his personal safety as a justification for the £millions he’s been gifted. The media’s interest in that has certainly diminished since Widdecomb’s death. But, like I say, I’m in zany nut case mode and in a rational world of decent men and women stuff like this never happens.
