jo cox's sister is spearheading efforts to draw up a joint code of conduct for political parties. involved. one of the things that drives me and that drives my parents and many of my friends and family to keep going is that we don't wa nt any of the family to experience — gosh, what we had to experience and indeed continue to experience every single day. because behind every politician and every public figure there is a family, and there are staff and there are friends and there are people who are affected by the abuse that they face, every single day. she said abuse was becoming a normal part of being an mp. we're losing good people from public life. i've had lots of conversations with politicians across the political spectrum sincejo was killed, across the brexit debate and divide, who are scared. they're really scared and their reality is that they are getting horrendous messages, whether it's in their inbox or whether it is on social media, and whether it is going to the supermarket to do their shopping. that is their reality. i do not want to be a accused of scaremongering bu

i think to another response, another question around jo cox he said let us get brexit done which letit is a sunday morning, we all rememberour mean, look, it is a sunday morning, we all remember our bible stories in thatjesus granted we all remember our bible stories in that jesus granted his we all remember our bible stories in thatjesus granted his disciples we all remember our bible stories in that jesus granted his disciples the power to cast out devils. i think you can certainly argue that the house of commons has been possessed new leave. so, there is, we have always had back and forth in parliament, which is good, but it has gone over the line. do think it is becoming much toxic, if you like, the brexit debate as time goes on, as the stalemate continues? yes, absolutely. i think there's lots of evidence of that in parliament. it has also come to a point where the arguments have sort of lost weight. so, we are not analysing information any more, we become so so, we are not analysing information any more, we become so entrenched in one of two sides that it is not healthy debate,

jo cox's sister, kim leadbeater, is spearheading efforts to draw up a joint code of conduct for politicalinvolved. one of the things that drives me, and that drives my parents and many of my friends and family, to keep going is we don't want any other family to experience, gosh, what we've had to experience and indeed continue to experience every single day — because behind every politician and behind every public figure there is a family and there are staff and there are friends and there are people who are affected by the abuse that they face every single day. she said abuse was becoming a normal part of being an mp. we're losing good people from public life. i've had lots of conversations with politicians across the political spectrum sincejo was killed, across the brexit debate and divide, who are scared. they're really scared. and their reality is that they are getting horrendous messages, whether that's in their inbox, whether that's on social media, whether that's going to the supermarket to do their shopping. that is their reality, and i don't want to be accused of scaremongering

the most extreme example of abuse against politicians was the murder of the labour mp jo cox in 2016.conservative party at the same time as heidi allen, and like her she wants to stop brexit. here's her reaction to heidi allen's news... anna soubry too has first—hand experience of abuse. here's what happened during a bbc interview in january. ..is we have to be absolutely... i do object to being called a nazi actually. crowd chants: soubry is a nazi. apologies too if you're offended at what you're listenig to. i think this is astonishing, this is what has happened to our country actually. six months after that, a man who twice confronted anna soubry and called her a nazi, was banned from going near parliament and received a suspended prison sentence. and of course the abuse is online too. on sunday, the financial times data journalist david blood published a piece saying he and his colleagues "analysed all your horrible tweets at uk mps and lost our will to live" story the story found the level of vitriol targetted at mps on twitter rose sharply after boris johnson's appeared in parli

jo cox was murdered in the middle of the referendum campaign by a white nationalist who considered her to be a collaborator and a traitor do you think it's wise right now that politicians constantly talk of betrayal of traitors of surrender is an irresponsible for your party did and to talk about picking up a rifle if bricks isn't delivered of taking a knife to civil servants in london is this not dangerous stuff which the word surrender is a normal part of the english language just like the trial if we can't use simple language like that that actually you are preventing free speech you know no one is banning you for you want to know what is banning you from that you were saying when you hear when you hear women in parliament saying they're getting death threats citing the prime which is of working is not does not make you feel a protest the jokes murder was absolutely hideous you know shocking and appalling on but never say don't we want to avoid another one happening by all moderating along of course about picking up a rifle and i think civil servant be saying you want to decapitate

media has changed things and you can't see because it went on a one—to—one basis after the murder of jo coxngs without responsibility at all. it is incredibly difficult nonetheless to rein in supporters on different sides of the political argument in what will be inevitably argument in what will be inevitably a bitterly fought election campaign. this is the day we should have left the european union. borisjohnson said he would rather die in a ditch than seek an extension and yet we are not out of the eu which will upset a range of people, and he is trying to blame parliament. that is one side of the argument and on the other sidejeremy corbyn is drawing very distinct dividing lines with the conservatives. he will be attacking a whole range of targets, rogues gallery of bad landlords and bad business people, media magnates. in that kind of atmosphere, it will be incumbent on party leaders to be very careful about the language they will use but equally they want to score points with each other because we are in an election that will be simply impossible to predict the outcome of. thank you ve

we are working very hard through the jo cox foundation does. onduct themselves in a respectful and civilised manner, and what we also need to look at issues and understand where anger and frustration is coming from and try tojoin up and frustration is coming from and try to join up the two. so our call to action today for the main political parties was to sign up to a standard of conduct for all politicians and members of parliament to sign up to, so that is one thing we are doing, and as i say, a lot of the work we do through jo's foundation is at a grassroots level, and trying to bring people together through the great get—together campaign, which i think can easily be dismissed as something around just getting together and having a nice time, which it certainly is, but it is about much more than that, bringing people together across lines of difference so we understand disability and race and lgbt so we understand disability and race and lg bt issues. so we understand disability and race and lgbt issues. these are important issues and they ar
