angry

paddyann Thu 25-Apr-19 09:54:20

the woman is an eegit

Lily65 Thu 25-Apr-19 09:54:56

I can't stand her , a bully.

aggie Thu 25-Apr-19 10:10:45

She used to have some brains...... sigh

The link didn't work and I am dying to know who "Widdy" is !! grin

Anne Widdicombe?

The link didn't work for me, but I can imagine!

All this B*** stuff isn't bringing out the best in many of us is it.

Urmstongran Fri 26-Apr-19 08:48:48

She was very popular on Strictly apparently!

Niobe Fri 26-Apr-19 08:51:18

She was the 'joke' contestant on Strictly!

aggie Fri 26-Apr-19 08:52:46

She was an embarrassing spectacle on Strictly . She does love the sound of her own voice !!

Anniebach Fri 26-Apr-19 08:59:26

She seems a sad woman

sassenach512 Fri 26-Apr-19 09:00:44

Did you see the bit where she sneaked the pen she was using on the panel into her bag when she thought the camera wasn't on her smile

DanniRae Fri 26-Apr-19 09:26:08

And to think that I defended her on "Strictly" because my husband can't stand her. I'm with him now!

annodomini Fri 26-Apr-19 09:27:16

Always on the side of 'morality', I wonder how she feels about a fellow member who has said that everyone should be free to watch child porn and jihadi videos.

Any person who thinks pregnant women should give birth in shackles isn’t sad but bad.

Maggiemaybe Fri 26-Apr-19 10:01:58

Her dismissiv attitude to the WASPI cause is another reason why I don’t like the woman. Apparently we’re all “self-indulgent and entitled”.

Lily65 Fri 26-Apr-19 10:06:11

Politics aside, I thought she came over very badly on the programme.

I totally cringed when she was on Strictly.

She is about as funny as........ ( provide your own ending here )

Anniebach Fri 26-Apr-19 10:12:52

She did not say women should be shackled when giving birth

nurse1crys Fri 26-Apr-19 10:20:20

I went off the woman when she was saying that women are making a fuss about nothing in regard to the change in retirement age which is making ladies lose thousands of pounds. I believe that m.p's still get theirs at 60!!!

Aepgirl Fri 26-Apr-19 10:23:56

I went to one of her one-woman shows and she was fantastic. Very sharp, and quick witted.

annodomini Fri 26-Apr-19 10:28:25

Annie, she may not have said it, but she allowed women in ;labour to be shackled when she was prisons minister.

As prisons minister she had to apologise to the Commons for having permitted the shackling of female prisoners while in labour.
