A Tory councillor has refused to apologise after being accused of politicising the tragic death of Labour MP Jo Cox to smear political opponents.

Howard Jones – a Conservative councillor on Mole Valley District Council – hurriedly deleted a tweet claiming “extraordinary numbers” of Corbyn supporters were “slagging off” murdered mother-of-two Jo Cox:

slag-off-jo-cox

Despite being asked to do so, Jones has steadfastly refused to apologise for his unsubstantiated comments.

Cllr Jones’s disrespectful tweet comes not long after another Tory cllr was suspended from the party after posting on Facebook that he had donated the “steam off my piss” to Jo Cox’s memorial fund.

See Ross Parry copy RPYCLLR : A Tory councillor has caused uproar after disgracing Jo Cox's memorial fund by saying he had just donated - the steam from his PISS. East Riding of Yorkshire Councillor Dominic Peacock took to Facebook to ridicule Jo's mass of donations which have been received around the world. The late Labour MP's memorial reached £1m donations today (Tues) - but it was met with an unsavoury tone from Cllr Peacock, a Conservative Councillor for Minster and Woodmansey. Along with a link to the Jo Cox fund, Cllr Peacock posted: I've just donated the steam from my piss.

The nasty party is well and truly alive – and definitely kicking …
