    Young female MP murdered in cold blood in the street. Lone nutter. Right wing extremist mentioned.

    Certainly seems a bit ‘psyOppy’, the way this news presents itself to me on the television complete with MP’s vigil.

    The first MP killed in decades in the UK.
    Classic Taxi Driver ( the movie ) scenario. Lone nutter , murders MP in street.

    I mean for fuck’s sake, look at this shit.

    Just hours after the terrible event her ‘neighbours’ have completely invaded and covered her house boat in flowers, photographs and candles.

    Having a (night) ‘mare is a common expression in the UK.
    Here’s a Mair. Lone nutter Thomas Mair, that is.
    And the first picture I see …?

    RED HANDED with some kind of ‘knife’ in his hand and a combat jacket on.

    It certainly looks like a PsyOp Baddie, kids.

    You see, if he’s got red hands and a weapon it means he ‘definitely did it’, yeh ? In UK street Ops, we’ve seen this principle used before.

    I know i never post on the forums and if I do i make dumb ones but yeah.

    Shouldn’t the topics name be 16th june?

    This ‘murder’ has gotten alot attention here in the Netherlands.
    We also has a referendum, remeber? It was about the Ukraine-EU treaty.
    And somehow our prime minister ‘marky mark’ has gotten away with postponing the government decision on this till ONE day after the British referendum.
    Regardless of if it is real or not it IS being used for something.
    What about the referendum angle?

    When I re-watch that video… well these guys could even be in the same room.
    The plot is most probably thicker and the referendum maybe the first layer.

    Cox, who quit in September after four years in the role, denied the claims made against him. “The rumours are untrue,” the paper quotes him as saying.
    Asked about the allegations, a Save the Children spokeswoman said: “We never comment in any circumstances on individual members of staff, past or present.”
    This news comes after Justin Forsyth, the charity’s chief executive, announced that he would stand down in February after five years in the role.

    On Wednesday Jo Cox was campaigning for the remain campaign on the river Thames.

    My girlfriend’s daughter rang up from university yesterday declaring she was going to vote ‘Remain’ and anyone who didn’t vote that way was a racist and not worth talking to.

    That blue jacket with the white trim, very prominent in image searches and often with the red shirt, looks very ‘Tory’ to me.
    The combo with the red makes for a generic, red white and blue politician.

    Certainly this is a classic image of Thatcher, the most famous and recognisable British female politician.

    A witness emerges…
    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3646807/Last-words-MP-Jo-Cox-assistant-revealed.html

    June 16 2016

    Jo Cox’s poignant last words as she lay dying in the street after being shot were: ‘I can’t make it, I’m in too much pain.’
    They were revealed yesterday by the MP’s assistant Fazila Aswat, who had just dropped her off outside her constituency surgery.


    source – https://twitter.com/Asanewsexpress/status/743598701059313664

    But did she? No, it “emerged” through Aswat’s father Concillor Ghulam Maniyar, 59


    why so?
    Miss Aswat, who had worked for the MP for a year, is too distressed to speak publicly

    “my daughter tried to help her, you know, and er, say [sic], ‘Look, Jo get up’ and she said “No,my pain is to much Fajila, she [daughter] couldn’t do anything else you know, she tried to comfort her…and meantime police came, and an ambulance came, and she couldn’t, she asked her to go to hospital because she’s eye witness and her clothes full of of blood, so the police politely advised her not to, they can’#t take her to the hospital but she came out from back door, you know and the time my daughter came out from that car she saw Jo Cox lying on the floor, you know and she tried to help her,you know but she couldn’t do anything else and I think this person has [sic] well planned, because her surgery was advertised because he didn’t hurt anybody else because she had come back again to make sure he heard her”

    hmmmm

    Where does the father say ‘‘I can’t make it, I’m in too much pain.’’? Nowhere I can find yet.

    What a [secondhand] witness…. This is just crazy. All is far, far from well in this story.

    What did he say to SkyNews

    When they reached the destination where the surgery’s going to take place, er Jo come out from back seat, and er Fajila come out from her driving seat, and went round the car, she saw Jo lying on the fl-, ground and said that’s ? ?I was Shocked what’s happened here, and she’s full of blood, whether he stabbed her first, or shot her first, so, so she’s tried to confort here, and said ‘Come on, Jo’. She said ‘No, ? too much pain’ [cut] and this gunman, whether he gone away somewhere, or come back again and shot her twice, you know.

    “Did your daughter encounter the gunman as well?”

    No, she tried to hit with her handbag but you know what handbag can do, he did not, he just showed her a knife but didn’t hurt her, you know [cut]
    Her memory will remain for ever ”
    Thankyou
    Ghulam wipes dry eye tear away
    I’m so sorry. That’s such a hor- it’s just such a horrid thing to have happened to someone like that
    ‘It is, yeah. Let’s hope her family come to thinking about two little children, you know, they are gorgeous little children”
    [eyes remain dry]


    Can this by anything other than some psy-op?

    A COUNCILLOR has appealed for calm following an arson attack on Mount Pleasant’s Medina Mosque on Monday.

    Coun Ghulam Maniyar (Lab, Batley East) called for people to refrain from retaliatory action after suspects broke two windows, poured petrol over plastic sheeting and set fire to it at the Purlwell Lane building at 10.30pm. The flames did not spread.
    Coun Maniyar said the consequences could have been far worse.

    Wednesday 25 February 2004
    A BATLEY councillor is to stand down after 12 years of unbroken service. Coun Ghulam Maniyar (Lab, Batley East), will not stand in June’s ‘all out’ local government elections, instead aiming to spend more time with his family.
    As chairman of the Heavy Woollen planning sub-committee, Coun Maniyar, 59, said he was proud to have overseen the Tesco and Mill Discount Department Store plans. He was also chairman of the Batley City Challenge regeneration committee in the 1990s.
    Coun Maniyar said he will be able to devote more time to his restaurant in Rotherham, as well as the Indian Muslim Welfare Society, Batley Cemetery Support Group and work as a Labour Party activist.

    The Gas Fitter or Cafe Owner “witness” – Clarke Rothwell
    http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/jo-cox-shooting-hero-bystanders-8209301
    told BBC News: “People were screaming and running from the area, people tried running towards him and as you were running towards him he was lunging with the knife at everybody.

    “A gentleman with a bald head in his 50s got very close and he lunged forward and stabbed him straight in the stomach, and tried to reload his gun to shoot people nearby again but people were sort of trying to surround him.
    He shot this lady once, then he shot her again and she fell to the floor. Went over, shot her once more in the face area, somebody tried grabbing, wrestling with him, then he was wielding a knife, a hunting knife.
    “He just started lunging at her with a knife, half a dozen times.

    or

    r Rothwell, a 42-year-old gas engineer, said: “I was outside the sandwich shop close to the Library when I heard a popping sound.
    “I looked round and there was a guy standing over a woman on the floor.
    “He seemed to have what looked like an old gun, like a musket, in his hand and he shot her again in the middle.
    “He then seemed to shoot a third time, towards her head or face.
    “He was also stabbing at her with what looked like a hunting knife, about a foot long.
    “He was stabbing her and waving the knife around.
    “He was shouting what sounded like `Britain First, Britain First’ but then seemed to panic and hurried off.
    “He seemed scared and hurried off towards Union Street, dumping a jacket on the floor.”I got into my van and tried to follow him but I lost him.”

    compare…

    Mr Rothwell said he had rushed to the scene after hearing a noise he thought at first was a car backfiring.

    The words I heard him say were Britain first, or put Britain first,’ Mr Rothwell told BBC Newsnight.
    ‘I can’t say exactly what it was but definitely Britain first is what he said, what he was shouting. He shouted it at least twice.’

    …as opposed to the earlier “witness” Hicham Ben Abdallah of the
    Azzurro restaurant, who says he didn’t.

    Graeme Howard, 38, was among at least two witnesses who stated that Mair was shouting “Britain first” as he carried out the attack.

    Oh yes, pop pop pop, sounds like a car backfiring, doesn’t it. He hears pop pop pop and there’s only been one shot, allegedly. Totally scripted nonsense.

    as is…

    Aamir Tahir, of the Dry Clean Centre, said the gunman was heard shouting “Britain first”.
    He said: “The lady I work with heard two loud bangs but I wasn’t there, I was stuck in traffic at the time. I wish I was there because I would have tried to stop him.

    but Mr Tahir didn’t hear it, did he? He’s just passively repeating what he’s been told to say.

    Here’s Mr Abdallah with the full script

    More about the mysterious cottage

    ‘Disdain for MPs undermines democracy – ultimately it killed Jo’
    Veronica Oakeshott is a Labour councillor [in Newham, East London] and friend of the Cox family who has worked with Jo on campaigns for tax transparency. She wrote this tribute:
    This weekend I was meant to be joining Jo Cox and her husband at a camping party at their holiday cottage deep in the country. It is 15 minutes’ walk from the road, and if you want transport to the front door you have to go by canoe. There is no drinking water and visitors are advised to bring sturdy footwear to cope with the mud.

    Most families would balk at the prospect of bringing two young children into a setting devoid of all mod-cons – as the Cox family have done regularly – by way of a “break”. After a hard week in parliament, surely a Yorkshire brew in front of Peppa Pig would be tempting.
    But this was, and is, an exceptional family who see a challenge as an adventure and inspire others to do the same. And so, inspired, my husband and I had our tent ready and our own two year-old ‘briefed’ for mud, sticks and canvas, when the horrific news came through.
    I didn’t know Jo well; my connection with the family is with her husband. However, as someone who has worked in Parliament, is now an elected councillor, and mother of a young child, I have a pretty good sense of how hard she worked to keep it all together and a huge respect for what she has achieved. As a councillor, I too have occasionally experienced the disdain that most MPs face, just for their belief in service through the democratic system.
    That disdain, widely tolerated across society, from pubs to dinner parties, has undermined our democracy for too long. Ultimately, it killed Jo. The public’s crucial and valuable right to challenge politicians has turned into a perceived right to hate them.

    In these days of reflection, as campaigns are suspended, I hope that the seed of a new era of respectful challenge, planted by the wide acknowledgement of Jo’s exceptional service, will germinate and grow.

    There’s some footage from BBC2 here

    which includes the interview with key “witness” Clarke Rothwell, Gas Fitter and Cafe Owner. A comment below mentions the possibility that the cafe was set up specially in advance at 12 Market Place for the psy-op, indeed it was previously known as Sinatra’s, and had stood empty for some time.
    It seems to have been set up as a limited company and inspected in November 2015
    with directors Clarke Andrew Rothwell, Simon Jon Wilkins and Jayne Wilkins.

    [Yes indeed, why was it called “Joe’s”? Well, Joseph Priestley, born there in 1733, springs to mind, whose statue is in the village and whose name is borne by the nearby, older associate, but an interesting coincidence nevertheless]
    Ample online, perhaps too ample, documentation highlights a site visit by councillors along with the premises application, which additionally indicates that another nearby licensed premises is owned by these near neighbours in Western Avenue.[i.e. Priestley’s Cafe Bar at 6A Low Lane] relating to extending the hours of opening..

    U.K. politician’s murder shocks Green’s Harbour residents

    Before moving back to their home country of England, Gordon and Sheila worked as music teachers in Newfoundland for a number of years in the 1970s. Gordon taught in Whitbourne, while Sheila worked at two schools in Green’s Harbour — Acreman Elementary and Ridgewood Junior High. Penney worked with Sheila at Ridgewood, and she taught Crocker’s children. They also taught in St. John’s.

    Although Gordon and Sheila Cox left Newfoundland and Labrador in the 1970s, they kept in touch over the years with those they met and have made multiple trips back to the province. Crocker and Penney both received Christmas cards from the Cox family every year that included a letter with updates on what was happening in their lives.

    “They are people who are very down to earth,” Penney said. “They’re not snooty or snobby people … You couldn’t find better people.”

    According to Penney, Brendan Cox was not born in Newfoundland, though his older sister Anastasia was. He can also recall Brendan visiting the province as a teenager.

    January – All Time
    Released on Alan McGee’s Poptones label. Unfortunately their management folded and they were dropped by the label soon after and the band split. Simon McLean then moved to a remote part of Scotland to recover from the blow and continue writing but I’ve heard he has since moved back to his native Australia.

    Fundraising – total reaches GBP1m
    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/06/21/memorial-fund-for-jo-cox-reaches-1-million/
    Friends of Mrs Cox set up the Go Fund Me page in “celebration and memory” of the popular MP..
    The most cited is “Mrs Cox’s friend Mr Tim Dixon” co-founder The Syria Campaign, a former Australian Prime Ministers’ speechwriter.
    The money will be split between Jo’s favourite causes: the Royal Voluntary Service, Hope Not Hate and the White Helmets, as chosen by her family

    The Royal Voluntary Service, to support volunteers helping combat loneliness in Jo’s constituency, Batley and Spen in West Yorkshire.
    HOPE not hate, who seek to challenge and defeat the politics of hate and extremism within local communities across Britain.
    The White Helmets, volunteer search and rescue workers in Syria. Unarmed and neutral, these heroes have saved more than 51,000 lives from under the rubble and bring hope to the region.

    The RVS is the employer of key witness and her “driver” for the Birstall Hustings, Fazila Aswat, local manager in Huddersfield.

    The appeal, Jo Cox’s Fund, was set up on crowdfunding site GoFundMe.com by family and friends of Mrs Cox “in celebration and memory” of her work and life. These include Nick Grono (CEO, The Freedom Fund), Tim Dixon (MD, Purpose), Mabel van Oranje (Chair, Girls Not Brides), and Gemma Mortensen (Chief Global Officer, Change.org). They have worked on it “in close collaboration with her husband Brendan Cox”.

    Jo Cox has been airlifted to hospital, SkyNews reporting that Labour sources are saying her condition is “serious”. 6:11 am – 16 Jun 2016 [2:11 PM BST]
    by which time “Labour sources” and “the office of Jo Cox” would know jolly well that she was dead.

    Thoughts – a very rapid dissemination from the “office of Jo Cox” to all major news outlets around 1.54 pm.
    It’s well worth listening to Stephen Kinnock in this interview the next day…

    “Well, I was in my constituency on Thursday and my researcher in Westminster had gone into the office next door. We have, Jo and I had adjoining offices. We shared an office effectively and he’d gone in to ask hi-,her researcher something and he he saw that she looked like she’d just seen a ghost and he said ‘well, what happened?’ and she said that Jo had been shot and he phoned me immediately and I was in South Wales and I just thought it was some kind of hoax, er couldn’t really believe it, so I just put the phone down and tried to think what on earth that could mean. Then, of course, the events over the next few hours unfolded and we’ve lost a true ray of sunshine….

    I am afraid I am not buying the researcher story at all.
