Well done and kudos Crewkerne team, no-nonsense Ann Widdencombe would have been proud, she will be sorely missed.🙏

I still have faith in humanity because of posts such as this. You have my full respect 🙏

Will do 👌 The Emperor Son on X: "Ann Widdecombe Full Speech | Reform UK 2024 National Conference. Video credits" - @reformparty_uk

Agree with her or not, she deserves respect. Incredibly intelligent, coherent and still working at her age. We must also remember she came from a time where it wasn’t easy for women to get ahead, she was a strong woman, a role model. RIP Ann.

@Ralphlane1948 I met her at a local Tory garden party when she came as guest and speaker. I remember her chatting to everyone and giving a very amusing but relevant (at the time) speech. Quite a charismatic woman. Petite but made up for in character. Really liked her.

Well said, CG. I had the opportunity to hear her speak live in Exeter in '19 and such was her spell-binding speech that the following speaker (Alexander Waugh, no mean wordsmith himself) asked how he was to follow 'such splendid Ciceronian oratory'. Lord, she was good.

Everyone should have the right to state their opinion, whether you agree with them or not, FREEDOM cannot exist without it!

God bless you guys. She literally was a national treasure. 😔

If I like you CG are not offended every day free speech is dead. Open robust debate & dialogue is the basis of a fully functioning democracy. I thank Ann Widdecombe for reminding us of this. Our world is a poorer place without people like Ann. May the Lord rest her soul.

@MargaretHa34766 A terrible terrible loss 😔

@Trevnonumber Thanks for doing this .

@MaajidNawaz Respect to the whole crew for this. Whatever your political position, she was an elderly woman who stood up for what she believed in. A very sad time

God rest her soul🙏. She was a Good `un✝️❣️

Giant of our times , absolute gift to humanity. Thank you for posting !!!

Ann Widdecombe’s free speech debate at Oxford Union is on YouTube, it was brilliant ❤️

I'm requesting a Cause for Canonization ...

Really sad about the horrific manner of her death. Though I disagreed with her political views, I admired that she never pretended to be anything she wasn’t and that she stood by her convictions. She was also kind and funny . An absolute power house. May she rest in peace ❤️

@WillBlackwater2 I think this is a wonderful thing to do and I will enjoy watching them. It’s still so hard to believe.

She was also an animal lover. That automatically makes her a good person in my book. RIP Ann.

A wonderfully honest lady who said what she believed and was not afraid of offending snowflakes. A free speech champion and delightful character taken from us far too early. I wish I’d met her. ❤️

@LydiaTerf6666 Well said.👏👏 Sadly becoming a hermit is becoming more and more tempting each day.

Churchill would have loved her. She was a fine biddy and a total badass.

Fantastic gesture and much appreciated. Ann was the doyenne of British policts with an indomitable spirit, a fearless attitude, a deep love of her country and her like will not be seen again. God bless her and may she Rest in Peace.

Yet all the rabid leftards are celebrating her murder just like they did with Charlie Kirk, these people are the scum of the earth, I just hope something bad happens to 1 of their family members!!

❤️🙏🏽

The greatest female politician not to be Prime Minister. Extraordinary person. Christian and fun. 💔

Fantastic, great to see respect, regardless of people's political views. RIP , Ann 🙏

Her compassion, warmth and generosity will be sorely missed.

A quibble. Those who would take the high-ground of offense with others’ free-speech — supporting curtailment of speech, e.g. hate-speech laws — are the moden-day totalitarians. Many of them decry others to be Nazis, not considering that to be hate-speech, w/no rebuttal allowed.

Whole heartedly agree with your stance, thank you. By God, she had a voice that made finger nails scraping down a chalk board sound pleasant - but her words were truly an art form, her ability to keep an audience transfixed, beyond reproach. Love or hate her

Thank you. A fantastic tribute to a great lady.👏👏👏

Fantastic Crewkerne says everything about Ann Widdecombe, so moving, so true 👍

She was a horrible evil person and the world is better without her, and she would be ok with me saying that because she loved free speech 🥰

@ReformDurham She was one of the best politicians in the Reform party. So tragic, she did not deserve to die in such brutal circumstances.

Thankyou for showing the respect that Ann deserves 🙏
