Jo Cox

Luxor has both Christian and Moslem communities and the politics of the Middle East are equally diverse. Air your views on the situation.

Jo Cox

Post by carrie »

Jo Cox M.o P. has been cruelly murdered in her constituency, the man alleged to be responsible has a record of right wing affiliations, although the motive for the murder has not yet been revealed.
Electioneering for the in/out vote has been suspended, various TV and radio programmes have been cancelled.
Freedom of speech is a precious thing and by taking the action that the politicians and media have is that not just giving this man what he wants?

I think Carrie that when the truth comes out this will be more a case of 'care in the community' rather than politically motivated, but very sad in any event, lets just hope no one side will stoop low enough to try and make political capital out of it.

Really a very sad circumstance. We haven't gotten too much info on this here other than she was coming out of the library (?) and was attacked and stabbed to death. Really very tragic and awful.

Obviously a developing story but there does seem to be an extreme right wing element in the attack.

From the same article
Police are also looking into reports surrounding suspect Tommy Mair’s “link to mental health services” and are seeking to find out “how the suspect came to be in possession of an unlawfully held firearm”.
But then again it is the 'Grunian' newspaper :lol:
