Anne Widdicombe Suspicious Death

[AClassicTrenchcoat]

Suspicious death, suspected murder. Think there is a press conference soon.

Oh this is terrible. Poor, poor woman,
she must have been terrified, it’s unbearable. She was my MP growing up and really went out of her way to help my family in quite a major way, which we were, and always are, grateful for.

It’s still the top story on the BBC News website.

Two minutes ago 🙄

Eta: sorry that is sky, I thought I had BBC on 🤣

Its horrifying and heartbreaking. I am sickened to think that someone could do this to a vulnerable elderly lady. Regardless of political affiliation this is a horrific violent murder. There was a eulogy given by Bishop Cei Dewar this morning which had me in floods of tears. Anyone who says anything celebrating the death of a defenseless old lady is sick and despicable.

Grow up.

And you are not using this to get your right wing views across?🤔

No one on here has taken delight that she’s dead.

Regardless of the reasons as to why she was killed, it’s still another example of male to female violence.

That poster is trying to create political division on the thread to push their own agenda.

It’s incredibly disrespectful to Anne Widdecome and her loved ones, as well as the neighbours and those that knew her that are on the thread.

I was thinking the same, she will be in the presence of our Lord Jesus today.

Try again. BBC News a few minutes ago.

Yes she was vulnerable. Her politics is the least of it. Some of the comments here are really awful. Right and left

The BBC breakfast program (the gethin jones one) this morning was celebrating her and doing some of her Strictly dances as their exercise thing they do. Was that just a massive coincidence or was it in honour of her?
I didn’t watch it, the TV was on in the kitchen before I went out of the house.

They’re still talking about it on the BBC news channel.

That's better but when I first switched on they were covering a nothing story instead.

It could be, because those close to the victim are often the perpetrator, so that’s one of the first places the police look.

But it could also be someone unknown to her but known to the police who was identified from CCTV or forensic evidence.

The hearts she won on Strictly are hardly the rioting kind.

IDS is on now talking about her.

It is very shocking. It is rare to find a politician whose morality was so clearly on display. I realise I am relieved that the man arrested has been described as white. It's an awful thing to have to say but the some people and political parties are on the lookout for excuses to be racist.

“I realise I am relieved that the man arrested has been described as white. It's an awful thing to have to say but the some people and political parties are on the lookout for excuses to be racist.”

I thought the same, to be honest.

They can't cover it continuously without any other story. Even when the Queen died they sometimes moved to other stories in between.

She's not the queen! They are allowed to talk about other things as well.

Anne was a woman of great Christian faith. A devout Catholic and someone who was sensible and kind and articulate. May she rest in eternal peace. Some of the comments here are awful. This was a 78 year old vulnerable lady living alone and its greatly upsetting to think that someone has committed this act of senseless horrific violence. Regardless of politics, its sickening to think of anyone dying this way.

He was quoting her words. I suspect it was meant to be respectful however, I also suspect that the reason Anne Wisdicombe used those words to describe herself was in reaction to/an attempt to preempt other people insulting her with the same words. So while I suspect it was meant to demonstrate a certain respect for her toughness I think it showed a lack of sensitivity at worst. But I don't think the intention was bad and I don't think it makes Bolton disgusting.

i never liked her personally but noone deserves this they're saying it's not political but who knows

How awful, Adam Boulton, pondering whether Ann was a virgin on Sky. Woman is murdered and so he thought it appropriate to reduce her to her sexual history. Disgusting creep.

May her memory be a blessing to those who love her, and may they find comfort in the knowledge she is with the Lord Jesus 🙏
