In either case, it sounds as if the killing of a Labour MP was politically motivated, obviously time will tell more...
Well, it's hard to think of a killing of an MP to not be politically motivated, unless it was a completely random attack, which the police have said in this case it was targeted.
The 'mental illness' aspect was just the catalyst to act upon those emotions - if it was a part at all, unfortunately you don't have to be mentally ill to carry out this sort of attack
