Nice though it is to slag off politicians, doing anything random like this that's likely to cause a road accident is as likely to cause collateral damage to other road users as it is to maim the MP (even if you think that's ok). Not every kick against "the system" is to be uncritically applauded, however much we might hate "the system" ....

An implication built on speculation built on speculation

Pretty stupid thing to do; even leaving aside the ethics of killing an MP, someone else could have been killed in the ensuing accident.

But here's a question: why are we assuming this attempt came from an anti-politician feeling?

After all, according to the BBC article: "Mr Mann is an outspoken member of the Treasury Select Committee who has grabbed headlines in recent months with his robust questioning of senior bankers and government ministers."

I know it's wild speculation, but if he's happened to have made a few powerful people uncomfortable with his questioning, wouldn't it make sense for them to either bump him off, or at least scare him a bit. And then the icing on the cake would be to post an article on IMC glorifying the whole thing, to imply it was a radical that did it.
