The shopkeepers, the witnesses, the people who were there, the people who'd worked with Jo while she was an MP, people who, you know, we hadn't heard from for years, saw it on the news.
So we ended up doing this massive press conference in Bristol
And this was me, like I'd never done anything like that before in my life.
There are some things in life you should never have to do.
Last night I had to go and identify my sister's body.
Yes, this was Jo Cox MP, and she was many things to many people in her too short life.
But she was my sister, my only sibling, my parents' firstborn child, a wife and a mum.
Those were her last words.
That is who Jo was.
Jo was an incredibly selfless, lovely, kind, compassionate person.
She was full of nothing but goodness.
And she'd spent years working in humanitarian organisations around the world in some of the world's worst war zones and, you know, really dangerous places, often which she didn't tell us about as a family.
And I think one of the things certainly my dad really struggled with was having done all that, how could she be killed in Bristol, literally five minutes from where we live?
You know, that just felt so cruel on so many levels.
And it is just so wrong, isn't it?
But then really bad things sometimes happen to really good people.
Jo and I were really close growing up, probably too close in some ways.
So when eventually she went to university, we both really desperately missed each other.
And I think that was when Jo first experienced loneliness and an issue that she came to work on a lot later in life.
But we were really close and I've got nothing but an abundance of happy memories when we were kids.
