Restore Britain leader describes Dunblane tragedy as ‘one murder’


Lowe, the MP for Great Yarmouth, said his father’s pistols had been taken away after the shooting, and that society in the UK needed “radical change” and to “release the individual”.

Kenny Ross, whose daughter Joanna was one of the pupils killed in the shooting, told BBC Scotland News, he had not heard the podcast so couldn’t really comment but he is “not surprised” at the ignorance of some people.

He said: “They don’t realise how devastating it was.

“But now we have a safer society because there is no longer private gun ownership.

“Thirty years have passed and people forget what we had to go through.

“I wouldn’t want anyone else to go through that. It’s people like him that are very ignorant and selfish.”

Conservative MSP Stephen Kerr said Lowe’s comments were “astonishingly insensitive and profoundly disrespectful to the victims of Dunblane”.

He said: “To describe Dunblane as ‘one murder’ is not simply inaccurate – it diminishes one of the darkest days in Scotland’s modern history.

“There is no excuse for reducing the murder of 16 children and their teacher to ‘one murder’.
