    He'd probably kick it too.
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Bojo is a buffoon but very dangerous because he's absolutely lazy, immoral and remorselessly ambitious.  As A Catterall puts it, "God actually help us".

    "Our communities have been deeply enhanced by immigration, be it of Irish Catholics across the constituency or of Muslims from Gujarat in India or from Pakistan, principally from Kashmir. While we celebrate our diversity, what surprises me time and time again as I travel around the constituency is that we are far more united and have far more in common with each other than things that divide us." -- Jo Cox

     


    Three years ago today, Jo Cox, a passionate Remain MP, was murdered by a far-right terrorist for her political beliefs during the EU Referendum campaign a mere days after Farage unveiled his Nazi-inspired "Breaking Point" poster campaign with its egregious anti-immigrant message.

    Jo believed we were safer and stronger in the EU, united and cooperative. Her murderer, a white male, Britain First terrorist, had been radicalized to believe that foreigners were a threat.

    For me, Jo Cox represents core values of openness and togetherness in the face of bigotry and intolerance.

    Det Supt Chatterton said, dealing with far-right extremism in the wake of the Brexit vote was a real challenge, with "open hostility" towards politicians. "With Brexit, we are seeing an increase in right-wing activity. You can see politicians are worried and you see the open hostility sometimes against politicians. Sadly, Jo Cox was murdered at the hands of someone that counter terrorism ended up investigating. It's a real challenge."
