Remain Campaigners Rush To Blame Brexit For MP Attack MP Shot
Breitbart London ^ | 6/16/16 | Breitbart London

Posted on 06/16/2016 11:18:44 AM PDT by barmag25

Remain campaign supporters are rushing to blame Brexit backers for today’s horrific attack on Labour MP Jo Cox. Just an hour after a 52-year-old man allegedly shot and stabbed Mrs. Cox, who had been campaigning for Britain to remain in the EU, many online are seeking to tar with the same brush all those behind Brexit.

There is currently no indication that the attacker was a Brexit campaigner, and reports over his shout of “Britain First” – the name of an anti-EU nationalist group – have had doubts cast upon them by Channel 5 news.

Her body isn’t even cold yet and they are already using her death for political gain.

Convince me again it wasn’t a false flag?

Sounds like a threat. Remain or get shot and stabbed.

So it’s Brexit’s fault rather than the the gun’s?

No. Brexit means “Peace”.

“16:55 — Remain Campaigners Rush To Blame Brexit For MP Attack
Within an hour of news breaking of a 52-year-old man allegedly shooting and stabbing Labour MP Jo Cox many online moved to link the event to the forthcoming referendum on Britain’s membership of the European Union. Yet there is presently no indication the attacker was a Brexit campaigner.”

“17:40 — Labour MP Maria Eagle deletes tweet claiming killer shouted “Britain First” “

“17:45 — Eyewitness on “Britain First” — “Never heard that” “

“Update 1845 — Local: Suspected killer had no political views
Thomas Mair, who has been named locally as the man arrested on suspicion of killing Labour MP Jo Cox was not politically minded, according to locals who knew him reported by the Daily Telegraph. A neighbour said he wasn’t a member of a political party and had never expressed interest in the EU referendum.

62-year-old Kathleen Cooke told the paper: “I am really shocked. He walked past my house this morning and said hello like he always does… He is just a quiet bloke who keeps himself to himself.

“He is very helpful and he helps local people with their gardens. There is one neighbour who is a bit frail and he keeps her garden tidy. He has helped me cut my hedge a couple of times.

“He has lived here for 40 years and has never been in any trouble and has never caused any trouble. He sometimes used to shout at the local kids if they played too near his house but that is fairly normal.

“I don’t think he belonged to any political party and I never heard him express any views about Europe or anything like that. To us, he was just Tommy, a local bloke we all knew”

There are reports now stating that the original story of the perp yelling “Britain First!” are being pulled back, and may be completely false.

It was an ARAB alleged eye witness that said this guy yelled “Britain First”. In other words, another lying Muzzie linking this incident to BREXIT for political gain to be used by the REMAIN proponents. Hope the British population sees through this fraudulent claim by this Muzzie. No one else heard this guy say Britain First, except for this one Muzzie supposed witness. And of course the REMAIN people are now running with that story line.

People who care about the survival of the British Nations, in any recognizable form, need to confront the exploitation of this murder, head on. Give it a day's rest, but tomorrow across the the British Isles, take up the cause of cultural liberty, as never before. There is just too much at stake for patriots, in any land, to allow themselves to be shut up.

Those that value the past thousand or so years of British ethnic achievements; the cultural heritage of some of the world's greatest achievers, need to express sorrow for a murder committed by a mentally unhinged man, and get back to discussing the intolerable betrayal in allowing a bureaucracy in Brussels to try to remake the cultural heritages of the British nations.

Will, as in the song, for example, "there always be an England," in the land still identified with the English. It is extremely doubtful, if they surrender their future to foreign bureaucrats, who have O.K.'d--even demanded the whole-sale acceptance of foreign peoples, for permanent settlement in Europe's national homelands.

Patriots of every nation need to recognize that there is an intellectually sterile, but compulsion driven international movement, that is gnawing at the vitals of the Western peoples today. Hopefully, with God's Help, they will somehow find a way to repel this despicable betrayal of the achievements of the centuries.

Any Brit, who would betray 12 or so centuries of achievement, because of something a nut did nor did not shout, a week before a very important vote, does not deserve to share in any thing derived from those centuries of achievement.

Conservatives need to attack by demanding a sense of proportion. The same is true both on the European continent, and even more clearly in the coming American election.

No one, with a sense of proportion, who has any speck of intelligence & decency--admittedly a combination if decline in our times--can fail to see how absurd this event is as a reason to surrender a proud heritage.

My personal opinion is that it was planned .... a perfect false flag op to try and stop the momentum. They will try to delay the vote until they can put the fix in to overcome the growing Brexit surge.

Which makes the leaders of the Brexit campaign complicit.

The existence of a “british” ethnicity will come as some surprise to the welsh, scots, and english.
