Street parties planned to remember murdered MP Jo Cox
Thousands of street parties, picnics and baking competitions will be held on 17 and 18 June to remember MP Jo Cox, a year after she was murdered.
Her widower Brendan said the UK-wide event, called The Great Get Together, would be a "fitting tribute" to the mother-of-two who died on 16 June 2016.
Her murder was "designed to divide our country" so uniting in this way would be "a powerful statement", he added.
