THE man who allegedly murdered Labour MP Jo Cox had links to far-right organisations in Britain and the US — where he bought bomb and home-made gun building manuals, it was claimed yesterday.

A civil rights organisation based in Alabama in the US has published a receipt which it says proves that 17 years ago Thomas Mair, now 52 years old, bought the manuals from the National Alliance (NA), which was once the US’s leading neonazi organisation.

The Southern Poverty Law Centre (SPLC) produced the document bearing Mair’s name and address in Batley, West Yorkshire — in Ms Cox’s constituency.
