0:00:08 > 0:00:11Good evening and welcome to Sunday's Look North.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14The husband of the MP Jo Cox, who was killed in her Batlex

0:00:14 > 0:00:16constituency in June, says the huge public demonstrations

0:00:16 > 0:00:18of support have helped their children come

0:00:18 > 0:00:20to terms with their grief.

0:00:20 > 0:00:22In a rare interview, Brendan Cox told the BBC's

0:00:22 > 0:00:25Andrew Marr that he was detdrmined to make sure her good

0:00:25 > 0:00:28works continued.

0:00:28 > 0:00:31I spent a lot of time in thd last four months really focused

0:00:31 > 0:00:33on the kids and making sure that they're OK.

0:00:33 > 0:00:38Making sure that they're coping with it as best as they can be.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41And in that, I'm positive that the kids are very strong,

0:00:41 > 0:00:45they've got a lot of Jo's spirit in them and they have

0:00:45 > 0:00:50been surrounded by a lot of love from our family,

0:00:50 > 0:00:53from our friends, which means that although they have very dark

0:00:53 > 0:00:55and difficult times, they're actually still

0:00:55 > 0:00:59who they were before all of this.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01And we talk about their mum every day.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04One of their questions in the earliest days was whx

0:01:04 > 0:01:05would someone do this?

0:01:05 > 0:01:07And that's very hard to explain

0:01:07 > 0:01:09So I haven't really found a convincing answer for that

0:01:09 > 0:01:13and I don't think they have understood why somebody would do it.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16One of the big pieces of advice from the beginning was helphng them

0:01:16 > 0:01:19understand that other peopld are feeling some of the pain

0:01:19 > 0:01:22that they're feeling.

0:01:22 > 0:01:25And in this case, that's bedn so visual, whether it's

0:01:25 > 0:01:28the thousands of people in Trafalgar Square,

0:01:28 > 0:01:31around the world as well, whether it's the people who were

0:01:31 > 0:01:36lining the streets of Batlex and Spen when we had the funeral.

0:01:36 > 0:01:38Cuillin said on that day, when we were driving

0:01:38 > 0:01:39down the road...

0:01:39 > 0:01:42He said, "I knew...

0:01:42 > 0:01:44"I knew lots of people loved Mummy but I didn't realise

0:01:44 > 0:01:48"this many people did."

0:01:48 > 0:01:50Jo was this unbelievable bundle of energy and of joy

0:01:50 > 0:01:55and of enthusiasm and she would never rest in peace

0:01:55 > 0:01:58when she was alive, and she would not want to rdst

0:01:58 > 0:02:00in peace now.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02And taking forward her work, her legacy, fighting for thd Britain

0:02:02 > 0:02:07that she believed in is our way of remembering her and in doing so,

0:02:07 > 0:02:10not letting her rest in peace, but taking her ideas and beliefs

0:02:10 > 0:02:13and her love forward.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16Brendan Cox speaking to the BBC earlier.

0:02:16 > 0:02:18A murder investigation has been launched following the death

0:02:18 > 0:02:20of a man in Doncaster.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24A 17-year-old boy and a 32-xear old woman are in police custody.

0:02:24 > 0:02:26A man in his 50s had sufferdd life-threatening suspected stab

0:02:26 > 0:02:29injuries and was taken to hospital in a critical condition,

0:02:29 > 0:02:32where he died last night.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35West Yorkshire Police say they're concerned about the whereabouts

0:02:35 > 0:02:38of a teenager from Dewsbury.

0:02:38 > 0:02:4214-year-old Jennifer Budi w`s last seen at around midnight.

0:02:42 > 0:02:44She's not believed to have contacted family or friends

0:02:44 > 0:02:45since she was reported misshng.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53People living in Otley say they ll fight Leeds City Council's plans

0:02:53 > 0:02:55to sell off the town's Civic Hall.

0:02:55 > 0:02:58Some residents are angry th`t it could be sold off to developers

0:02:58 > 0:03:01for non-community use.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03The council says when the btilding was first advertised,

0:03:03 > 0:03:06none of the campaigners got in touch to formally register their hnterest

0:03:06 > 0:03:09or put forward proposals.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13Something the Give Otley Its Town Hall group denies.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15The City Council have been well aware of our campaign

0:03:15 > 0:03:16since the beginning.

0:03:16 > 0:03:19We feel Leeds City Council are sitting on their

0:03:19 > 0:03:20hands a bit with it.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22Every time we seem to contact them, they have different plans

0:03:22 > 0:03:24for what they want to do with it.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27Until a few weeks ago when ` letter went in our local paper

0:03:27 > 0:03:30via the councillor in Leeds, we didn't realise that they

0:03:30 > 0:03:32were actually looking to sell the building,

0:03:32 > 0:03:33which is the wording that they used.

0:03:33 > 0:03:36So we have been active with this campaign for the last few months.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38Hindus, Sikhs and Jains from across Yorkshre
