Just want to convey my condolences to the families and friends who have lost a loved one, and best wishes and swift recovery to those injured.

No matter what time of year, this is hard to comprehend. What on earth is going on in the heads of those that perpetrate this kind of tragedy?

    Brother is working in Berlin at the moment, said it's incredibly tense over there this morning, very on edge. Understandably so.

    I see Farage was trying to score points off this within hours. Neatly followed by starting a twitter fight with Brendan Cox. What piece of work.

    Quite honestly both of them could do with keeping quiet as comment from either one will stoke the flames under the other.

    It just proves what a VOLS he is. Any decent human being would just convey their condolences to all concerned. Farage has no problem using dead people for his vile political ends less than a day after their deaths. He has no decency, nor humanity.

    One of them preaches hate, the other tolerance. One responded to the other using a terrorist act to further his cause. The one responding having been made a widower by a terrorist on the side of the one trying to further his cause.

    when Trump slated the parents of a Purple hearts deceased war hero, i thought that trump is finished, he wasnt, possibly boosted his appeal.
    Perhaps Farage is hoping for a similar reaction amongst his supporter base?

    At the moment, the suspect captured nr the scene has been released, so we dont really know if this was a Islamic attack, another organisation or someone mentally ill.

    Got to feel for the lorry drive too, must have been horrific for him.
