Re: Jo Cox MP critically injured amid shooting reports
I didn't know her, but I certainly know the Batley and Spen area, having lived and worked there for 18 months back in the 1980s.I have in the past hour written to my MP (Dr Caroline Lucas) and asked her to express my condolences to Jo's family and friends on my behalf.

Re: Jo Cox MP critically injured amid shooting reports
It is 10pm and the village is still cordoned off, many socco around looking for evidence in places you wouldn't imagine was necessary, obviously they are doing a very thorough job.Earlier 2 homocide detectives knocked our door and asked a few questions, they are doing a door to door.

Re: Jo Cox MP critically injured amid shooting reports
I feel really upset this evening as the man who shot her said "put Britain first" I hope to God this is not over the E U vote as she was a supported for staying in.There has been so much hype and yesterday's charade on the Thames.

I just wonder if that sort of cynical generalization extends to those who die in office honestly striving to make the world a better place.
Or does their demise suddenly make people think a bit more rationally ?

Re: Jo Cox MP critically injured amid shooting reports
What a tragedy for her husband left without a wife and children left without a mother. If it is found to be politically motivated let's hope can be prevented from becoming the norm. That is the sort of crimes which is stirred up by the hatred preached by the extreme Right and Left wing groups, whose message is picked up by some oddball and taken too literally.|
