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.”

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.
