She must have been well respected if the Syrian Groups she fought for left messages of condolences, and Obama has even phoned the husband.

Re: Jo Cox MP has been murdered in West Yorkshire
I'm sick of the media hype on it all. This death is tragic and I wouldn't wish this on anyone like this.
But people die every day and some of them have contributed to this country and a whole host of other things but they don't get this kind of media attention and donation pages setup in the form of 500k to charities that they wouldn't have even donated to in the first place. She was an MP doing a job that millions of use do everyday that wouldn't get this kind of recognition. I noticed the 77 year old got a quick mention in the news I almost missed it so where it the media coverage on this person absolute joke in my opinion. like I said it's sad that this has happened I am married with kids and I wouldn't want to get a phone call that something like this has happened but I think this has totally blown out of proportion. |
Re: Jo Cox MP has been murdered in West Yorkshire
I'm afraid it's become a bit of a PR opportunity for some within Westminster and as we all know, they rather like jumping on any opportunity to make themselves look better. For all the fine sounding words of folks like Sadiq Khan, the usual self serving nastiness will resume next week after their orgy of navel gazing. It was only a couple of weeks ago that Amber Rudd was being congratulated by all and sundry for her very personal attacks on Boris Johnson and of course Nigel Farage has been fair game for all manner of personal abuse by good Westminster folk.

A sitting MP has been murdered, largely it seems due to their position as an MP, it's a big news story.

Re: Jo Cox MP has been murdered in West Yorkshire
I read that 40k signatures have been signed so far calling for an end to the referendum in the wake of her death.
Seems the stupid are coming out in mass now I hope they are the ones who haven't got a vote |
Re: Jo Cox MP has been murdered in West Yorkshire
Sadly the ether contains its fair share of idiots who'll put their names to virtually anything. Having said that, 40,000 is less than a third of the number of people who voted for Boaty McBoatface.

First time I heard of this lot was on the radio today. TBH, not sure an unopposed by-election is the right thing, no matter what circumstances caused it, the voters should have a choice, even if the result would seem to be inevitable. Britain is a democracy, and MPs are elected, not appointed. |

I'm still waiting for the 'I'm voting remain for Jo' Facebook posts.

Re: Jo Cox MP has been murdered in West Yorkshire
It'll be a sad day when the national vote is determined by the death of a minor MP rather than the future of our country.:(
Please note that I am not dissing Jo Cox. RIP. |

I suppose Lee Rigby wasn't a big deal either. ---------- Post added at 10:23 ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 ---------- Quote:
In the context of the current campaign, an MP has been butchered in the street by seemingly a far right head case. Pretty much a mirror of Lee Rigby being butchered in the street by a head case claiming to do it in the name of Islam. I didn't see anyone claiming Lee Rigbys murder being "blown out of Porportion" |
