The widower of the murdered MP Jo Cox has told of his surprise at an “outpouring of kindness” on social media after he posted a heartfelt Christmas message. Brendan Cox is facing his second Christmas without Jo, mother to their two children, Cuillin and Lejla. On Christmas Eve, Cox wrote a message on Twitter, urging people to tell their loved ones how much they mean to them. Brendan Cox (@MrBrendanCox) Wasn’t at all expecting this outpouring of kindness to me or to each other in this thread. A lovely reminder at the end of the year that bad shit happens but the world is still full of good people.
