Nine years ago today, Jo Cox was killed for simply doing her job as a public servant. Her death is a stark reminder that abuse, threats, intimidation, and political violence must never be tolerated, no matter our differences. We must always stand against hatred and stand up for the values we share.

🇬🇧👑This morning, I had the honour of representing Gedling, alongside my consort Wendy, at a special service held at Southwell Minster to celebrate our communities and mark the official birthday of His Majesty The King.
