The husband of Jo Cox, the MP killed in West Yorkshire last week, | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
In his first interviews, Brendan Cox says his wife | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
had expressed concerns about the direction | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
She was a politician and she had very strong political views | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
and I believe she was killed because of those views. | :00:26. | :00:28. | |

The husband of Jo Cox, the MP killed in West Yorkshire last week, | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
has been paying tribute to his wife as a politician and as a mother. | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
In his first interview since the attack, Brendan Cox | :01:37. | :01:38. | |
said his wife had strong political views and believes she was killed | :01:39. | :01:42. | |
He was talking to our political editor Laura Kuenssberg and said | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
the huge public support and the outpouring of grief had | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
The public reaction has been off the scale and the two things that | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
I've been very focussed on is how do we support and protect the children | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
and how do we make sure that something good comes out of this? | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
And what the public support and outpouring of love around this | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
does is also help the children see that what they're feeling | :02:18. | :02:24. | |
That the grief they feel isn't abnormal, they feel it more | :02:25. | :02:37. | |
acutely and more painfully and more personally, | :02:38. | :02:38. | |
but that actually their mother was someone who was loved | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
by lots of people and therefore it's OK to be upset and it's OK for them | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
And the reason I wanted to speak today was just to thank the public | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
who have been incredible in response to this. | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
What will you tell your children about | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
I think that one of the things from what's happened in terms | :02:57. | :03:13. | |
of the public reaction is that she's being seen as a symbol | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
for something that's much bigger, a sense of creating more compassion, | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
And the thing that I don't want to lose is that she was also their mum. | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
So I want to protect the personal memory as well as the more political | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
memory and the symbolism that she's taken on. | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
Was she worried about our current political culture, do you think? | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
Yeah, very worried, and from left and right. | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
I think she was very worried that the language was coarsening, | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
that people were being driven to take more extreme positions. | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
I think she worried that we were entering an age, | :03:56. | :04:03. | |
that we haven't seen maybe since the 1930s, of people feeling | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
insecure, for lots of different reasons, economic reasons | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
or security reasons and then populist politicians, | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
whether that's Trump in the US or whoever else, exploiting that | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
and driving communities to hate each other. | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
This, of course, has happened at a time when Britain is engaged | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
in a big national conversation about our place in the world | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
We know that she was clearly for staying in the European Union | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
but what did she make of how the conversation's been conducted? | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
I think as everybody knows Jo was a passionate pro-European | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
and she definitely worried about the tone of the debate around | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
this, not that it's not a legitimate debate to have and that there aren't | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
completely legitimate views on both sides of the debate, | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
but more about the tone of whipping up fears and whipping up hatred. | :05:02. | :05:10. | |
Do you worry now about people using her in a political debate? | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
She was a politician and she had very strong political views. | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
I believe she was killed because of those views, | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
And she would want to stand up for those in death as much | :05:26. | :05:32. | |
I will remember somebody who had incredible energy, | :05:33. | :05:43. | |
a joy about living life, somebody who would have no regrets | :05:44. | :05:45. | |
Both love for her children, love in our family, but also love | :05:46. | :06:01. | |
She just approached things with a spirit and she wasn't | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
perfect at all, you know, but she just wanted to make | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
the world a better place and to contribute and we love | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
Brendan Cox talking to our political editor Laura Kuenssberg. | :06:13. | :06:23. | |
With less than 48 hours to go until the country goes to the polls | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
in the EU referendum, David Cameron has made | :06:27. | :06:28. | |
a direct appeal to the older generation to vote to stay | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
It comes after a former advisor to the Prime Minister says Mr Cameron | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
had been told four years ago that it would be impossible to meet | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
Our deputy political editor John Pienaar reports. | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
When this thing comes out, you know it's serious. | :06:45. | :06:46. | |
The campaign's been called a battle between hearts that say leave | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
Today, David Cameron played on both, saying don't risk the economy, | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
It will just be you in that polling booth, just you, taking a decision | :06:54. | :07:01. | |
that will affect your future, your children's future, | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
And it's not just about future years. | :07:04. | :07:16. | |
Remainers say Black Friday could see the pound and shares tumble | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
But a former Cameron advisor says he's struggling and claims | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
he was warned years ago he'd never get migration below 100,000 | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
It's amazing to see the Prime Minister wheeled out | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
like that by panicky spin doctors as an admission really that they've | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
They've lost the argument on immigration. | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
I think that's why they're losing overall because, | :07:44. | :07:46. | |
as we were warned in Government many years ago, it was impossible | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
for the British Government to meet its targets on immigration | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
And Leavers believe they're the ones who draw the crowd. | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
Nigel Farage's attack on migration strike a sour note with opponents | :08:01. | :08:02. | |
but he doesn't care, warning today of strain on schools. | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
This is what people are going to vote on in the referendum. | :08:07. | :08:08. | |
Getting back control of our borders, easing | :08:09. | :08:10. | |
Labour's leader is more supportive of migration in this campaign | :08:11. | :08:19. | |
Frankly, I don't care where the doctor or nurse has come from. | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
I value their skills, dedication and professionalism. | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
Our NHS is an example of what people working together can achieve. | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
Tonight, the rivals have arrived at Wembley Arena for the last big | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
set-piece of the campaign, the BBC's Great Debate. | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
Boris Johnson may be the Leavers' best hope of a winning moment. | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
And London Mayor Sadiq Khan in team Remain. | :08:43. | :08:46. | |
We have heard their arguments - fear for the economy, | :08:47. | :08:48. | |
Now it's about who can reach the most hearts and minds | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
here tonight and in the final hours of campaigning. | :08:53. | :09:02. | |
Tonight's TV debate will be the biggest event of its kind ever seen | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
in Britain. Politics as a performing art. After a campaign that's been | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
fierce, dramatic from the start, and touched by tragedy. A truly telling | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
moment could help decide the outcome and with it Britain's future for a | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
generation. A father has been jailed | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
for a minimum of 23 years after he was found guilty | :09:24. | :09:25. | |
of murdering his six-year-old Ellie Butler died less than a year | :09:26. | :09:28. | |
after she was returned to Ben Butler's care | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
following a custody battle. Her mother, Jennie Gray, | :09:32. | :09:33. | |
has been jailed for child cruelty. A warning that you may find some | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
of the details in this report from our social affairs | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
correspondent This is the family life | :09:40. | :09:40. | |
Ben Butler fought for. And the life he destroyed | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
in a fit of rage. Six-year-old Ellie was living | :09:46. | :09:53. | |
with a man on a short fuse, as an accidentally recorded | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
phone call demonstrated. Don't ask me to do something | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
which you ain't BLEEP done The film also shows Ellie | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
with a black eye which Butler Weeks later in October 2013 | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
he battered Ellie to death, Jennie Gray worked opposite | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
the Old Bailey yards from the court CCTV footage shows her rushing home | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
to Sutton where they tried to stage things to look like an accident | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
before sending their younger child to find Ellie | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
and finally calling 999. Jennie Gray is shouting | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
with Ben Butler in the background. It's a 15-minute call | :10:36. | :10:51. | |
in which Jennie Gray is also instructed in how to resuscitate | :10:52. | :10:53. | |
Ellie. The court was told Ellie had | :10:54. | :11:02. | |
been dead for two hours. Describing Ben Butler as violent, | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
ill-tempered and domineering, the judge, Mr Justice Wilkie, | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
said his performance during the 999 In 2007, Ben Butler was convicted | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
of shaking six-week-old Ellie. That was quashed on a legal | :11:13. | :11:19. | |
technicality and Ellie eventually The couple even went on television | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
to complain of the injustice. It took pretty much last | :11:23. | :11:32. | |
month to clear my name. Jennie, had you ever any | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
doubts about Ben? It was Mrs Justice Hogg, | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
who retired in March, who exonerated Ben Butler | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
in the Family Court saying it was her joy to return | :11:45. | :11:46. | |
Ellie to her parents. But Ellie's maternal grandfather, | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
who cared for her for years, I always said to the judge, | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
one day you all may have blood on your hands with regards | :11:54. | :12:00. | |
to my granddaughter Ellie A Serious Case Review says the court | :12:01. | :12:02. | |
ruling gave Ben Butler the upper hand, making it difficult for others | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
to protect a little girl described by her school | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
as gentle and thoughtful. Tim taekwondo says he would go back | :12:14. | :12:32. | |
to space in a heartbeat after his six-month mission. In carried out a | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
range of activities to inspire children and had this nation for the | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
next generation. You are looking at a boy who went to WestBourne primary | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
school, who left school at the age of 19 with three below average | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
A-levels and I have just got back from a six-month mission to space. | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
My message to them is don't let anybody tell you you can't do | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
anything. Tim Peake. | :12:56. | :13:01. | |
Football, and in the last half hour Northern Ireland have lost 1-0 to | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
Germany in their Euro 2016 tournament. It was their final match | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
in Group C. Northern Ireland had its heart set | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
on something special in Paris, the romance of their story has already | :13:13. | :13:18. | |
made an impression. Win or draw against the world champions and they | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
would be certain of staying. Early on it became clear how difficult | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
that would be. But Michael McGovern was solid. If Michael O'Neill felt | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
the noise was relentless, so was the pressure. Eventually something had | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
to give and after half an hour Gomez gave Germany the goal they deserved. | :13:35. | :13:49. | |
Northern Ireland was almost mesmerised by their movement, almost | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
everyone but McGovern. Northern Ireland gave every ounce of effort | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
to hold on to a narrow defeat. O'Neill's side have come a long way | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
in this tournament and their everisn't over just yet. | :14:00. | :14:05. | |
-- their journey isn't over just yet. It was the fairytale upset | :14:06. | :14:07. | |
Northern Ireland fans would have dreamt of here but when you consider | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
Germany thrashed Brazil 7-1 on the way to winning the World Cup, their | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
team and particularly their goalkeeper, emerges from this with a | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
huge amount of credit and defeat doesn't mean it's over for Northern | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
Ireland. They're reliant on results elsewhere if they're to join England | :14:24. | :14:25. | |
and Wales in the last 16. Thank you. | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
Time now for a look at the weather. Thank you. Good evening. A fine end | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
to the day for many. Most dry into the night but a few showers | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
continuing in western Scotland and Northern Ireland and then later | :14:39. | :14:45. | |
thicker cloud pushes in from the south-west to bring rain and coastal | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
fog. Wales and Midlands will see some of that cloud and rain by dawn | :14:49. | :14:55. | |
on Wednesday. Fresher further north but here we see the best of the | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
sunshine throughout Wednesday. One or two passing showers. Morning | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
cloud in the north of England should break up. From south-west England | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
and Wales to the Midlands and parts of Lincolnshire is where we could | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
see rain through the day. North and west of that pleasant enough in the | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
sunshine. Feeling very muggy to the south and | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
east, especially if you see the sunshine. Late day storms Channel | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
Islands and northern France could push to south-east and East Anglia | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
for the rest of this week. They could be torrential in places and | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
could cause flooding. Keep up to date with the warnings on the | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
website and a full forecast after the BBC News at 10.00pm. Thank you. | :15:32. | :15:34. |
