Ann Widdecombe was a political colossus: a formidable speaker, committed Brexiteer and unflinching defender of the United Kingdom. I knew Ann closely, joined Reform on the same day as her and shared her determination to secure a proper Brexit. Her loss is devastating. Ann deserved a long and peaceful...

Ann Widdecombe represented a political tradition Britain is rapidly losing. She had firm principles, deep compassion and absolute integrity. When Ann gave her word, she meant it. I was proud to stand alongside her in defence of Northern Ireland and our United Kingdom. Her death is a great loss to the country. Britain has lost one of the few politicians whose word still meant something.

This evening I joined Sky News to reflect on the life and public service of Ann Widdecombe. Ann was a true political heavyweight - never to be ignored and always to be respected and valued. A formidable parliamentarian, she was a lady of deep conviction, unwavering principle and steadfast Christian faith. For me, however, her greatest qualities were revealed not in Westminster, but in the darkest period of my life. During Operation Midland, when I was falsely accused of being a serial child-murdering paedophile, I publicly described the investigation as a “homosexual witch-hunt”. I was forced to declare: “I am a homosexual. I am not a murderer. I am not a paedophile.” At a time when many turned their backs on me - including people I considered friends - Ann chose to dive in and stick her head above the parapet to support me publicly, privately and practically. She was always at the end of a telephone or an email whenever I needed her, despite the personal and political cost of doing so. Her support did not end there. In 2023, she joined the demonstration outside New Scotland Yard to mark Falsely Accused Day, standing alongside those whose lives had been devastated by false allegations and miscarriages of justice. She understood that defending the presumption of innocence and due process does not diminish genuine victims - it strengthens the rule of law on which justice depends. Ann showed compassion when it mattered most. She stood with those others preferred to ignore because her principles demanded it, not because it was easy. That courage, integrity and commitment to justice are among the qualities for which she will rightly be remembered. Thank you, Ann. Your friendship, loyalty and kindness will never be forgotten. My sincere condolences go to her family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Ann Widdecombe was a formidable woman who stood by her principles while the rest of the political class surrendered theirs. At last year's Reform conference, my mother asked for a photo. Ann’s reply? “On one condition.” She handed over a promotional card for her Substack. Absolutely brilliant. Now we have the grim spectacle of online ghouls celebrating the murder of a 78-year-old woman. It’s exactly the kind of moral sickness she spent her life railing against. Throw the book at whoever did this. Rest in peace and rise in glory, Ann.

Those who laid wreaths for Ann Widdecombe knew her, respected her and were fond of her. Claiming to know the secret motives inside their souls is grotesque. There will be time for political battles. This moment should belong to Ann.

Today in the Commons, I paid tribute to our dear friend Ann Widdecombe. A true legend, admired by millions. A woman of unwavering conviction. A passionate champion of public service and a lover of life. She enjoyed a remarkable career in both politics and broadcasting. Her work ethic was second to none. An exceptional orator whose words always carried weight. She will be deeply missed, and her legacy will endure.

Ann Wilson revealed in interviews that the song was about Heart's anger towards Mushroom Records, who as a publicity stunt released a made-up story of an incestuous affair involving Ann and her sister Nancy Wilson. The song particularly focuses on Ann's rage towards a male radio promoter who came up to her after a concert asking how her "lover" was. She initially thought he was talking about her boyfriend, band manager Michael Fisher. After he revealed he was talking about her sister Nancy, Ann became outraged, went back to her hotel room, and wrote the original lyrics of the song. When she relayed the incident to Nancy, she, too, was infuriated. Nancy joined Ann and contributed a melody and bridge. Heart performing Barracuda live on Howard Stern Show.

🚨 Victoria Derbyshire asks Richard Tice how alarmed he and Nigel Farage are by the horrific murder of Ann Widdecombe. Within seconds Tice is interpreting the statutory phrase “acts of terrorism” as suggesting something ‘bigger, broader’ and then pivots to the risks faced by Reform MPs in Parliament. No mention of frightened poor Ann must’ve been in her own home and her family now grieving. And if Parliament really is impossible to secure, perhaps we finally need a modern Parliament building fit for the 21st century.

🚨 The head of Counter Terrorism Policing could not be clearer. “Please allow us to do our job thoroughly and carefully, and think before sharing any unverified information.” And this: “It is important to remember that this is a murder investigation following a brutal attack on a 78-year-old lady in her own home.” Thank you. Ann Widdecombe is the victim. Let the police investigate and secure justice for her and her family.
