There is little doubt in my mind that this is related to the EU referendum next week. Jo Cox was apparently a prominent campaigner for Remain, as well as being outspoken on the issue of helping Syrian refugees, and the man who murdered her appears to have been a racist BFfer. The Leave campaign has built a lot of their advertising on fear and intimidation, and this is what happens as a result.
