[故事]昨天,一位英國的國會議員在離開拜訪北英格蘭選區時遭到襲擊殺害。警察已逮捕嫌犯。
WHAT HAPPENED?
Jo Cox - a 41-year-old politician, and mother of two young kids - was shot and stabbed multiple times by a man who approached her on the street. He reportedly shouted “Britain first” during the assault. Leading many to think that the motive had to do with next week’s hugely important vote on whether Britain should break up with the EU.
