        This clip was investigated by the BBC Trust and found to be misleading. Stop politicking and maybe just support our police Richard?

        Although I realise you can't go off script nowadays. Far too busy 'standing with Theresa May'. Newbury deserves better.

      People still grieving, injured in hospital and your only comment is a cheap political one. You should be ashamed of yourself. #londonattack

        With respect Mr Benyon, he didn't say he was against shooting terrorists, he said he was against a general shoot to kill policy.

        That's a surprise. A Tory twisting words to generate a different message. A sign of desperation?

      Given you lot have ditched 20 thousand officers, I'd say your one as bad as the other. Pathetic.

      Dear Lord can you not find something more recent and factually correct to talk about, like say slashing 20,000 police jobs......

      Police numbers were reduced whilst current PM was Home Secretary. I'd rather see police be able to prevent a situation than shoot way out.

      I'm glad you're not my doctor. Your approach would be amputation fixes all ills. More concerned with killing terrorists than preventing it
