It has been ten years since Jo Cox MP was murdered by a far-right extremist while serving her constituents in Batley and Spen.

It’s nice to see that Friends of Batley Station have replaced the banner commemorating Jo Cox with something more permanent, it was getting quite tattered.

After my walk I am back on rails at Batley station. I didn’t walk all the way here. I was far too easily tempted by a bus stop!

Lots of good stuff happening at Batley station by looks of it. Things you like to see!
