Jo Cox quotes - page 3
When the voters tell us on the doorsteps that they can't picture our leader in No 10 we have to listen. When our candidates in London and Wales ask the leader to stay away, we have a problem. When the revival we were promised in Scotland with Corbyn's "new” politics proves to be a mirage, we have to ask what it has actually achieved.
Jo Cox
We need a robust but targeted military approach. Don't get me wrong, I'm no war-monger. I opposed the Iraq war and worked for a decade as an Oxfam aid worker – but this isn't Iraq. This is a humanitarian crisis.
Jo Cox
Please let us stop casting the humanitarian, diplomatic and military responses as mutually exclusive alternatives. They are not. If we are serious about addressing this crisis, we need to stop pretending that any one of them offers a panacea and instead weave these strands into a coherent strategy.
Jo Cox
I don't believe there will be a military solution to this conflict but I do believe there will be a military component to it. The vast majority of the fighting will be done by people from the region and by Syrians themselves, but that doesn't mean that the UK shouldn't play a role.
Jo Cox
Corbyn needs to show he's ready to lead from the front. He and those around him must come out of their bunker, stop blaming everybody else, and show the discipline and determination to drive our message home. These elections were a terrible missed opportunity. We cannot afford any more.
Jo Cox
If four years of continuous vicious conflict have taught us anything, it is that the current regime is no longer capable of bringing peace and stability to Syria.
Jo Cox
What many of our businesses are lacking is confidence: confidence to expand; confidence to borrow; confidence to grow; and the confidence to fuel a real economic recovery that benefits everybody, offering decent jobs, paying decent wages and bridging the skills gap.
Jo Cox
We owe it to everybody in our party to be honest about where we stand.
Jo Cox
I've been in some horrific situations where women have been raped repeatedly in. In Afghanistan I was talking to Afghan elders who were world weary of a lack of sustained attention from their own Government and from the international community to stop problems early. That's the thing that all of that experience gave me - if you ignore a problem it gets worse.
