Home Secretary Amber Rudd responds to the verdict in the Jo Cox murder trial, which saw white supremacist terrorist Thomas Mair given a whole-life sentence. Yes, that would be the same Amber Rudd who only last month announced government proposals to force businesses to declare how many of their workers are not UK-born - a proposal that invited comparisons with passages in Mein Kampf.
