First MP to be murdered since 1990 in the UK, first non-ireland MP to be killed since the late 1800s. Mother of two young children:

The Labour MP Jo Cox has died after being shot and stabbed multiple times following a constituency meeting.

Armed officers responded to the attack near a library in Birstall, West Yorkshire, on Thursday afternoon. A 52-year-old man was arrested in the area, police confirmed. The suspect was named locally as Tommy Mair.

Police added that Cox, the MP for Batley and Spen, had suffered serious injuries and was pronounced dead at 1.48pm on Thursday by a doctor with paramedics at the scene.

Police also confirmed a man in his late 40s to early 50s nearby suffered slight injuries in the incident. They are also investigating reports that the suspect shouted “Britain first”, a possible reference to the far-right political party of that name, as he launched the attack.

Police are understood to be talking to at least one witness who claimed to have heard the attacker shout the words, and the motivation for the incident will form part of their inquiry.

Britain First:

Britain First is a far-right,[11][13][14][15][16] and British nationalist[3] political party and movement formed in 2011 by former members of the British National Party (BNP).[15] The party is led by a former BNP councillor Paul Golding, and was founded by Jim Dowson, an anti-abortion campaigner linked to Ulster loyalist militants.[11]
Britain First campaigns primarily against immigration, multiculturalism and what it sees as the Islamisation of the United Kingdom, and advocates the preservation of traditional British culture. The group is inspired by Ulster loyalism and has a vigilante wing called the "Britain First Defence Force". It attracted attention by taking direct action such as protests outside homes of alleged Islamists, and what it describes as "Christian patrols" and "invasions" of British mosques,[15][16] and has been noted for its online activism.[17] The group's claim to be Christian has been condemned by all major denominations of the faith in the UK.[18] It has contested elections to the House of Commons, the European Parliament and the mayoralty of London, but has not held any elected posts.
