QuoteA Conservative MP has been stabbed multiple times in an incident at his constituency surgery.

Sir David Amess, who represents Southend West in Essex, was attacked on Friday at Belfairs Methodist Church in Leigh-on-Sea.

Sky News understands a man walked into his constituency surgery and stabbed him multiple times.

Ugh, nothing good will come from this.

Must resist making Brass Eye gags for at least an hour, everyone.

so what kind of nut will have stabbed him? Somehow Brexit related?


To this day I'm stunned this kind of thing wasn't happening loads after the banking crisis tbh

An MP was shot and murdered a few years ago by a far-right fascist and nothing pretty much happened as a result.

Oh, right, a Labour MP.

well, look at it this way; he's a tory, and he got stabbed.

Not only a Labour MP. A female Labour MP.

Barely registers on the radar.

Anyway I'm shocked by the level of journalism surrounding this. If you're cut open at a surgery it's not a stabbing, it's an operation.

I hope it was someone who's been denied mental health support since 2010 - the Tories might actually put some funding in if it's affecting them now.

Apparently he consistently voted against allowing terminally ill people to be given assistance to end their life, so let's hope he doesn't end up with a debilitating life long injury that destroys the quality of his life in such a way that he feels death would be a better option.

He's already been cleared as fit for work by the DWP.

I think it's about time we had military police on the streets to rid us of subversives.

I genuinely don't care if Amess is alive or dead, although obviously I wouldn't wish a stabbing on anybody. What does worry me is the inevitable authoritarian backlash from the Home Office and the media that will follow this.

Especially if the stabby person isn't white.

His only regret is that he was stabbed multiple times.

Stabbed for having a surname that's difficult to pronounce

It won't be a far-right extremist this time will it? Amess is one of them.

imitationleather

I would be very surprised if there is anyone in Leigh-on-Sea who isn't a Brexit nutter, though.

Yes, my first reaction to someone being stabbed is to rush to their theyworkforyou page to determine if they deserved it.

What are the security arrangements like at these things, I kind of thought they would be stepped up after what happened with Jo Cox.

bgmnts

Genuinely gutted the cunt isn't dead.

Why can't these evil cunts just die? That poor Jo Cox was murdered successfully by a right wing nutter of course because evil wins but can't just one of these cunts get successfully killed? Just give me a sliver of justice. A sliver.

jobotic

Might have been a fox murderer. That's the only issue he doesn't take the cunt's side apparently.

Jonathan Djanogly cancels all surgeries in Huntingdon for the foreseeable future.

"Amess, 69, is a well-known backbencher who has never held a ministerial or shadow ministerial post during his 38 years in parliament"

The Guardian really kicking the man while he's down.

TrenterPercenter

Always liked Amess for the stereotypical mad tory character he played in Brasseye; should have had a great career in comedy ahead of him, sad to hear this.

You beat me to it. On balace, I'd say yes he deserved getting stabbed.
