Savhmr Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Ive heard nothing since,I think his injuries were minor. But Im sure he was quoted as being 'about ' 50 ? Nope. He was a 77 year old man, and his injuries are reported to be "non life threatening" so glad to hear he's ok. http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/14561948.UPDATE__MP_Jo_Cox_shot_and_critically_injured/?ref=trn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the above source still claims he said 'Britain first' when even the bloke who originally said he heard it, is saying now, that he didnt say it. It will be interesting to see how this 'Blame it on Brexit' thing works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 RIP Jo Cox.....don't care about your political beliefs, they are your choice by the freedom that our fathers fought for, you worked hard to become someone and to lose your life in this way is a tragedy not only to your husband and young family but to the country as a whole.

nabbers Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Tragic waste of an active compassionate life. There is nothing black and white about Brexit, it is about everybody's personal views and the lies on both sides from the self elected spokesmen on a national free vote are scandalous. Any fool could see what the effect of this murderers plan would be.....a swing to remain, and he must have been deluded beyond any reason to do what he did. Nobody wants to be associated with what he has done. He did Remain a favour, Brexit are branded extremists. He did Israel a favour - She was pro Palestine. He did anti gun a favour, nobody will rationalise that he used a DIY weapon. Nobody wants to be associated with this piece of excrement but many will be branded guilty by association in this PC world that will spare him the execution he deserves.

Lloyd90 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Bremain = Selfish to the point of obscenity You can't class them all the same 🙄 That's on the same page as saying everyone voting for out is a racist! God I wish people would consider what they were saying Some people genuinely believe that we will be better off in the EU and are voting that way. I myself and many others believe we are better off out. I hope we will all vote that way. I wish sides would not be so ignorant as to tar everyone who disagrees with them as wrong.

Dave-G Posted June 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) The BBC are now reporting he might not have said it. Thank you for this, I wonder how or why the Britain First inference was reported - or if the BBC has twisted it around. I'll withdraw from this debate until its been established more reliably to have been politically motivated or otherwise.

I'll withdraw from this debate until its been established more reliably to have been politically motivated or otherwise. I watched the interview on the news the witness stated that the attacker shouted britain first or put britain first, he couldn`t remember which one.There was no twisting of the statement.

yod dropper Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Is there a link No, I heard it (I think) on the midday TV news or during the Daily Politics. They were previously reporting 'Britain first' even though they had interviewed somebody who said it was 'Britain first' or 'put Britain first'. Haven't seen tonight's news so we shall see.

vole Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) Does it matter to us what someone like this spouts during a murder they are committing ? Apart from to the police of course . Clearly unhinged and psychopathic . I would not dignify his rants with linking it to political debate . May life go on ,peacefully . Not the arena for gun ownership debate . Best left awhile .

vole Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Are Britain First a death cult ? Guess not . No one can commit a 20 minute murder of a tiny female victim unless they have completely left all moral , political and humane constraints well behind .

Savhmr Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 (edited) I've now found this link which appears to contradict the earlier one suggesting that he didn't say it. This still doesn't alter the fact that the guy's motivations may be more driven by mental health issues than politics. His neighbours and his brother all claim that he had no real interest in UK politics but did hold some rather extremist views linked to a S.A. white supremacist organisation.
