Campaigning to the EU referendum in Britain has been suspended after a member of parliament was killed in an attack in Northern England. The Labor 1 MP Jo Cox was shot and stabbed outside the library where she was meeting her constituencies in West Yorkshire. She's the first serving British MP to be murdered in 25 years. A 52-year-old man has been arrested. An eyewitness 2 Clarke Rothwell said he shouted 'Britain First' during the attack. Our political correspondent Rob Watson have this to say about the possible motivation. I think there's still considerable confusion because despite that eyewitness's accounts that happen, other eyewitness'accounts which in a way muddy the waters whether she absolutely definitely was clearly the intended target of her attacker. So I just think, given one's experience of covering these sources of event, one has to be incredibly, incredibly careful to draw conclusions.
President Obama has challenged the Republican-controlled congress to rise to the moment on pass gun control legislation. After meeting relatives of those killed in the mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando on Sunday, Mr. Obama said U.S. politics have conspired 3 to make it easy for a terrorist or a disturbed person to buy powerful weapons. I am pleased to hear that the senate will hold votes on preventing individuals who were possible terrorist ties from buying guns, including assault weapons. I truly hope the senators rise to the moment and do the right thing. I hope the senators who voted no on background checks after Newtown have a change of heart. And then I hope the House does the right thing and helps to end the plague of violence that these weapons inflict 4 on so many lives.
