It was great to be at Five Lanes school for a Jo Cox Great Get Together event, with hundreds of parents and children sharing breakfast with each other. 

Events like these -;where people of all different backgrounds come together and celebrate what we have in common – took place all over the country as a fitting tribute to what Jo stood for: Unity, compassion and tolerance.

As I said when Jo died it now falls on all our shoulders to take forward the causes Jo championed and was passionate about. Doing this work, taking forward Jo’s vision is a way of remembering Jo and ensuring her legacy endures.
