Shelagh Fogarty is joined by the husband of murdered MP Jo Cox, Brendan Cox, and security expert Philip Grindell to talk about political violence in the wake of Ann Widdecombe’s murder. Police believe the former minister was attacked and killed on Wednesday, July 8, at about 12.30pm, nearly 24 hours before she was found. A 28-year-old white British man who was arrested on suspicion of her murder on Saturday has since been rearrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism. Brendan Cox, whose wife Jo was killed back in 2016, tells Shelagh that our 'democracy is being destabilised by violence.' Phillip Grinnell admits that we are continually having 'the same conversations', but 'nothing ever changes'.
