A White British National. If he wasn’t there would be No Police Statement for a week or more.

Ann was a principled woman who didnt suffer fools gladly, and by many accounts a kind and generous person.
Neither did she go into politics to be liked. We need more politicians like her.
May she Rest in Peace.

I was a colleague of hers in Parliament - we shared keenness for animal welfare, though not much else! She was always very friendly and positive outside the public sphere.
@
I likes Anne, she had spirit and spoke her mind .

HEARTLESS PEOPLE ,LIKE OR DISLIKE ,A OLD WOMAN HAS BEEN MURDERED SHOW SOME RESPECT
@
There is going to be people who will just insult her character then proceed it with "but she didn't deserve to die"
Yeah and she probably doesn't deserve insults toward her on the same day she has been Murdered Why write anything at all if it's just going to be a backhanded comment?

I don't care about her political views, the woman was murdered, we should all be supporting the hunt for the person who did this to her.
RIP 🙏🏻
@
strange how we know the colour of the alleged murderer on the first line of the statement?????
@
This is a heinous crime. Feel saddened that it happened to a prominent older single woman

Hard to argue that Farage's security concerns are invalid...

I’ll take questions but answered non.

Has this person heard of editing. Half hour of prodding microphones.
@
Even though I disagree with many of her views nobody deserves to be murdered for having an opinion.

Even if Anne's death is not related to politics, then shame on this individual for this despicable act of murdering a 78 year old Woman.

R.I.P. Miss Widdecombe and Condolences to your family, loved ones and friends, for their loss.
