Sounds very much like you are trying to justify his behaviour and minimise the seriousness of these allegations

Nope I'm explaining another way to look at some very inventive journalism, please don't accuse me of anything MTVN.

Now ask yourself, why has this been revisited now?
Why at a time when public confidence in charity work and in particular those associated with foreign aid and now these that deal with stemming the rise of the far right in they UK are they being 'exposed'?

Hmmm His boss went at the same time, strangely they were both Labour supporters fighting against govt cuts...

'Backed by Mr Cox, Mr Forsyth ordered a highly emotive multi-million pound TV advertising blitz. The ‘It Shouldn’t Happen Here’ campaign claimed 1.6 million British children were growing up in ‘severe poverty’. Tory MPs said it was a ‘crude political campaign against Government cuts.’

It clearly shows he's guilty either way , but I think some people want concrete tape confessions .

The allegations made in 2015 were addressed and reported on, my post was to query why they had been reported on...again.

The father-of-two said some of the allegations against him were a "massive exaggeration", but conceded that he had at times "overstepped the line".

In 2015 the Mail on Sunday reported that Brendan Cox had stepped down from his position as chief strategist at Save the Children over allegations of "inappropriate behaviour" which he at the time denied.

More details of Mr Cox's alleged behaviour emerged after Oxfam issued its own apology over a sex scandal involving aid workers in Haiti.

There aren't any more details... they are the same details.
There is nothing in the 2018 report that isn't in the 2015 report.

it's all part of this all to common theme these days that anyone associated with the labour party couldn't ever have possibly done something wrong

I have read both articles, you however obviously haven't.

plus he stepped down before the full investigation could be completed, wonder why...

An investigation could still be done in his absence, him not being there is not an issue. Should it be warranted then that would take place regardless.

The husband of the murdered MP Jo Cox has resigned from the two charities he set up in her memory after being publicly accused of sexual assault.

Brendan Cox has stepped down from his posts at More in Common and the Jo Cox Foundation after allegations, printed in the Mail on Sunday, that he had assaulted a woman in her 30s at Harvard University in 2015. Police filed her complaint as assault and battery but action against him was dropped.

Cox denied the claims in a statement issued on Saturday but admitted making mistakes in a previous role with the charity Save the Children.

I cant believe he set up a charity for his dead wife after this?

The amount of people minimizing and defending this behavior is insane. Labour MPs saying on twitter 'good on him for admitting it' and such Well yes, I guess its good in a way that he is taking responsibility, but it hardly makes him a saint given he is admitting gross behaviour.

The same people cyber hunted Toby Young into resigning, over some text messages only a few months back. Shows you just how much of a game it is to them.

Well quite.

I don't think issues like this should be made into some ridiculous political point scoring exercise. but it seems these days everything must be made into that. I find it quite pathetic tbh.

[Crimson Dynamo]

people have invested so much sainthood in jo cox its hard now to realise that her husband was a wanker i guess is what is going on?

[GoldHeart]

As i've said before nobody expected Brendan Cox to be a saint , but we all felt sympathy for the devastating brutal loss of his wife . We also assumed he was a decent guy , come on how could any of us expect this from him ?? .

But just shows none of us actually know these people or what's really going on behind the scenes . Yes hes admitted to it but he's still in the wrong .
