Conservative MP Sir David Amess died on 15 October 2021, after being stabbed more than 20 times during a constituency surgery. Ali Harbi Ali has been found guilty of his murder and of preparing acts of terrorism. Sir David is not the first MP to have been killed or injured in recent years. Is enough being done to keep MPs safe? On the Sky News Daily podcast with Anna Jones, our political correspondent Joe Pike gives us details on the Ali case and explores the wider issues of MPs’ safety. Also, Labour MP Kim Leadbeater, whose sister Jo Cox was murdered in her constituency in 2016, shares what it was like hearing the news of the attack on Sir David, Labour MP Angela Rayner on the daily online abuse of politicians, and security expert Ed Hill tells us what more can be done to protect our representatives. Producers: Soila Apparicio, Emma Rae Woodhouse, Rosie Gillott Junior Producer: Josh Gafson Digital Producer: David Chipakupaku Editors: Philly Beaumont, Paul Stanworth
