First MP murdered since 1812, and that was the Prime Minister, shot with a flintlock.
An amazing coincidence. Just as the UK was going to vote itself out of the EU. Referendum suspended.
Just Wow... Who knew they could suspend an referendum because a politician was murdered?
Sounds like they took advantage of a news event to stop the referendum they were losing.
The campaigns on both sides were suspended not the referendum.
I may be mistaken, but I think there were a string of Brit MP’s murdered during the IRA “troubles” 70’s.
