It’s been a long time since I did one of my Maps posts and I thought I would break the ice again having found this map during the summer.

Jo Cox, Brexit & Haters – Oh My!
This is an unusual post, but then it has been an unusual week. They say that a week is a long time in politics but recently event hours have been a long time in Politics.
