The killer has now been named and is being held under the anti terrorism act, which I assume gives the police much much longer to hold him before needing to charge.

fwiw most if not all stalinists (and Soviet Union lovers in general, really, esp older ones) i know are extremely socially-conservative. like, to the point it's kinda hard to discern them from *actual* ultraconservatives until they start going on about how Felix Dzerzhinsky was cool actually or whatever

Ten years ago most of the ex-LF crew were still licking their wounds in offsites and IRC and famous leftist firebrands like nodrog were allowed to post unmolested (hah).

In fact I decided to do one of those tedious OTD things, and 10 years ago today this was the sort of posting going on in the "Most leftist thread in the forums(tm)":

nodrog posted:

However if you want to cut pensions, you need to replace them with something else if you want to keep attracting good candidates. The better pensions/lifestyle/etc associated with public sector jobs arent just a fringe benefit; theyre one of the main selling points, and help them to be competitive with private sector jobs despite the lower salaries (for some positions at least).

Just seconds away from calling for armed revolution to institute the JDPON!

The snippets of news I've seen on the killing say the chap had been reported to Prevent but wasn't an active MI5 person of interest. God only knows of that's true or not.

Being reported to Prevent basically just means you're a black British Muslim, though.

Can't get no luck.

Every single covid death and every single death due to austerity is just as tragic and horrible as David Amess's death.

Moreso, in fact, because those people didn't cause it.

I mean it's been said but on the same day that MP got stabbed his government was pushing to absolve its border guards of any responsibility for the deaths of refugees. Why should I care more about this guy who had the power to make things better and didn't when in all likelihood he was going to vote to let people drown?

Technically, he was likely to vote for absolving Border Force staff of guilt if their boats rammed dinghies packed with refugees.
There's a difference between "letting people drown" and "making people drown", and Amess was merely spared from being on the wrong side of it.

I will admit that I am getting a certain amount Schadenfreude at the thought that the cunts who actively decided that it will be 6 months before my son gets his ESA element of universal credit (and is on £52 a week, £21 of which goes to the council for rent), are sat in their enormous taxpayer funded houses going “leopards eating my face?!”

Austerity was seen by many switchers as an unfortunate but necessary economic policy, while higher taxes on the those earning high salaries were viewed as punishing hard work and success.

The report, while praising Keir Starmer’s recent party conference speech, found that among those ex-Labour backers who had switched to Boris Johnson in 2019, the Conservatives were now seen to have “a record of delivery” on issues such as Brexit, the furlough scheme, vaccinations and running the economy since 2010.

The main thing I associate the Tories with delivering is 160,000+ deaths, but nobody asked me.
