Outpouring of love for the hubby of killed MP Jo Cox

- BY BEN GLAZE Deputy Political Editor

THE widower of murdered MP Jo Cox has told of his surprise at an outbreak of kindness on social media after he posted a Twitter Christmas message.

It is Brendan Cox’s second Christmas without Jo, mother of their two children Cuillin and Lejla.

He wrote: “Wasn’t at all expecting this outpouring of kindness to me. A lovely reminder that bad s**t happens but the world is still full of good people.” On Christmas Eve, Mr Cox had written to 82,000 followers urging them to imagine losing the person they love most. “Imagine what you would wish you had said to them. Then take a moment to say it,” he said. The tweet racked up 39,000 likes. Extremist Thomas Mair is serving life for killing the Labour MP before the 2016 Brexit vote.
