Rue Rue Jo Cox, DΓ©putΓ©e Britannique, a street sign in Burgundy reads, AssassinΓ©e pour ses convictions. No British road is named after her, I found on returning home, for fear it could have proved controversial. I remembered in Shakespeare rue even for ruth, called 'herb of grace' because it was used in exorcisms, by the angel to clean Adam's eyes, and Gulliver back home for his nose against the smell of his countrymen.
I think about this poem by Ian Duhig β about Jo Cox, the Labour MP assassinated by a man shouting βBritain firstβ β every day at the moment. No other contemporary poet has looked so clearly at the political reality of the far right as a minority who must always be appeased
