The Daily Telegraph disagrees with this analysis (you may have opinions on why this is the case)

  The venn diagrams for terrorist and assassination definitely overlap, and even more so with the loosened definition of terrorism these days. I may be wrong in assuming the politics of the attacker, but the event doesn't seem to be random - the mp was targeted at a scheduled event, so that ticks all the boxes in my mind - someone specifically targeted and murdered for political reasons was assassinated. Have a link for the daily telegraph article in question? Or at least, some more detail?

    The Telegraph, along with the bbc now, are saying the arrested man is British of Somalian heritage. So unlikely to be a neo-Nazi.

      Barring a Clayton Bigsby parody irl, I'd have to agree that neo-nazi probably isn't his affiliation.
