In May the Labour MPs wife, Labour councillor Jo White, was sent a dead bird through the post. In August, MP John Mann for Bassetlaw in North Notts nearly crashed his car after anonymous sabotage of his car. A car wheel nearly fell off after it was loosened and the hub cap was screwed back on to hide the sabotage.
The number of people pissed off enough by the politicians to make an attempt on one of their lives is uncountable.

stupid... and a question

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.
This is "uncountable"

The number of politicians pissed off enough by the people (mainly the poorest & most vulnerable), to continually attempt to lessen their already low quality of life, is definitely uncountable....
It applies to most of them from ALL 3 main parties throughout the country..

"The number of people pissed off enough by the politicians to make an attempt on one of their lives is uncountable."
The number of people pissed off enough by the politicians to make an attempt on one of their lives is absolutely minimal.
