Breaking

Thomas Mair has been found guilty of the murder of Jo Cox

Cherie 23-11-2016 12:08 PM

Not unexpected, her family have been the most dignified I have ever seen

Tom4784 23-11-2016 12:09 PM

Expected but still good to hear, I do hope he gets life.

I've got a lot of respect for her family, such strength.

MB. 23-11-2016 12:10 PM

Hope he rots in there

Yes amazing restraint

Ammi 24-11-2016 05:44 AM

...just so glad that the trial and verdict are all over for her family and friends now.../most of us brace ourselves so much for the funerals of our loved ones which are hard enough but to know that there was this to go through as well and how painful it was going to be in re-living all of the details again...:sad:..

Sticks 24-11-2016 05:54 AM

And those who clamoured for this referendum, do they not share in this culpability? If there had not been a referendum there would not have been the atmosphere that led to this murder?

Kizzy 24-11-2016 05:58 AM

Far right terrorists are a bigger threat than anything else at this moment.

Her family were so brave :(

Ammi 24-11-2016 06:00 AM

..no Sticks...whatever 'atmosphere' has been created by the decision to have this referendum, that atmosphere has been there for every one of us but only one person took Joe's life, he is the only one with culpability...

Kizzy 24-11-2016 06:15 AM

I think he's right in a sense, someone said this week that 'something dark' had been unleashed in America following trumps win, I feel that here about brexit.

The above posts are two of the most disgustingly irresponsible, which I have ever seen on a Forum and as an EU Referendum devotee, Leave voter, Trump supporter, and someone who is genuinely saddened by the senseless murder of young Jo Cox, I am deeply offended by them.

To try to turn the tragic murder of a beautiful young mother at the hands of an evil, mentally deranged monster into something more than that in order to make political capital from it, is unforgivable.

To suggest - even disguised as a question - that those who 'clamoured for a referendum' have culpability in poor Jo's senseless murder, is as banal as saying that EVERYONE involved in staging football matches are culpable in the numerous cases of football fans being knifed to death or kicked to death during post-match football fan violence, because if there had been no clamouring for football matches on a Saturday, there would not have been the atmosphere which led to the murder.

Let's not restrict ourselves to Politics and Football though, let's be totally ridiculous and go for... Road Rage for starters. Yes - and those fecking bastards who invented cars. If there wasn't any cars there would be no chance of any bad atmosphere developing which leads to numerous murders through Road Rage.

As for;

"I think he's right in a sense, someone said this week that 'something dark' had been unleashed in America following trumps win, I feel that here about brexit."

The ONLY 'something dark unleashed' by both Trump's victory AND the 'Brexit' Referendum result, is in the deeply immature and dangerously twisted minds of ANYONE who cannot accept both those DEMOCRATIC results and who lose all objectivity, rationality, and civility as a consequence.

And the total HYPOCRISY in these type of posts is STAGGERING:

Any condemnation in a post of a deranged Muslim Extremist slaughtering innocent civilians, is met with a barrage of totally UNJUSTIFIED accusations of 'Demonising all Muslims' and 'Tarring all Muslims with the same brush', YET, it is perfectly acceptable for a least one of those same protesters to try to 'Demonise' Trump supporters or - as is the despicable case here - to try to Demonise' 'Leave' supporters or those citizens who favoured an EU Referendum, and condemn them as somehow partly responsible for the senseless slaying of an innocent young woman by this solitary deranged psychopath.

None of these type of disgusting posts do anything but dishonour the memory of Jo Cox.

In MY opinion.

Thank God for your logic and reasonableness Ammi.

This is still raw for me as I spent a short time during the 2015 election with Jo with many others canvassing.
I doubt I have come across a more enthusiastic, optimistic and rallying person.
Her warmth, energy and determination really inspiring.

This case is sickening and I am glad this vile man has got the sentence he did, although you wonder why he gets to still acquire some comforts for himself.
That is the law however.

All I hope is that, as to any who may think as he does, somehow more is done to root them out and stop them being able to even get anywhere near even thinking about doing this to anyone else, never mind actually being able to do so.

Jo Cox, is along with her family,her amazing Husband and her Sister, a really fine example of dignity and good in the World.
Part of that good has been viciously taken from the World by Jo's murder but her values can live on, by others making sure what she stood for is always fought for and upheld.

R.I.P. to a truly wonderful Lady.
One who could have made such a big change for the better in the world of politics.
A Parliament filled with the understanding, compassion and consensus politics of Jo Cox, would be a truly amazing and wonderful thing to see, as well as being the best change possible to come about too.

I wholeheartedly endorse every word you write Joey. It is a terrible tragedy.

It is indeed Kizzy.
A well deserved recognition for a really brave and selfless act.

I'm glad you updated the thread, Kizzy, thank you. I saw a news notification on my phone yesterday, but forgot to read the article.

RIP :sad:

Underscore 15-08-2017 01:13 PM

RIP to him.

Read Jo Cox's book written by her husband Brendan which highlighted him. Such a shame.

Alf 15-08-2017 01:23 PM

RIP that brave man.
