Alternative Christmas Message - Brendan Cox
« on: December 27, 2016, 05:00:15 PM »
If you haven't already, this is well worth listening to:

Not sure whether its available anywhere else - I assume it must be.
Are your, or your friends'/relatives', garages, lofts or sheds full of unused DIY gear, sewing/knitting machines or fabric and haberdashery stuff?

Lists of what is needed and a search engine to find your nearest collector (scroll to bottom for latter) are here:  http://www.twam.uk/donate-tools

I'll go along with that Hope, a thouroughly decent man.

I agree.

Particularly liked this bit,

“After all that’s happened this year, she (his wife Jo) would hope that all of us make a resolution to do something in 2017 to bring our communities back together,” he will say. “To reach out to somebody that might disagree with us. Now is not a moment to shout louder into our echo chambers.  It’s a moment to reach out.”

Let us profit by what every day and hour teaches us

It was on the online Indy, Ukip/BNP posters actually had the cheek to attack Mr Cox. Yes there were obviously some (including myself under another nom de plume) who took them to task, but we were down voted.
