It is pleasant to be able to report some good news, even if its origins lie in tragedy.

An area of Brussels will be named after the late MP Jo Cox in a tribute to the politician who was killed in her West Yorkshire constituency in June.

The 41-year-old has been included on a list of “illustrious women” whose names will be used for squares, streets and buildings to “feminise” the city.

The City of Brussels said it had been “overwhelmed” by the Labour MP’s death and wanted to “pay tribute” to the mother-of-two after she had lived and worked in the city for several years.

    Well done Brussels. I know the city reasonably well and have always found its people to be tolerant and very friendly.
