Indeed. R.I.P. Jo. She was that rarest of breeds - a UK politician with integrity and guts. No wonder the poor woman got mown down in her prime. And yes, I'd definitely classify this as an act of terrorism, even though the shooter was in all likelihood mentally unbalanced too.

You only have to look at the differences between the way this case has been reported in the British media and the way last year's Leytonstone tube stabbing was. Needless to say, because the perpetrator was a self-proclaimed Muslim, his twisted religious beliefs were made into the key theme of almost every article I read on the subject, even in the broadsheets.
