Contribution

Q5. I associate myself with the remarks of the Deputy Prime Minister, and congratulate my constituent Sir Kevin Sinfield on all the work he does.Yesterday marked the 10th anniversary of the murder of our dear friend Jo Cox. As well as being a sister to our wonderful hon. Friend the Member for Spen Valley (Kim Leadbeater), she was a wife, daughter and mother, and we must not forget that. Jo’s mantra was always that we have“more in common than that which divides us.”—[Official Report, 3 June 2015; Vol. 596, c. 675.]Will my right hon. Friend indicate what he thinks he should do, and in fact what we should all do, so that Jo’s beliefs and her legacy are always remembered?
