Police believe that Anne Widdecombe was murdered

I never liked her or her views but at least she had the guts to say what she believed in and didn’t trim them to curry favour. This is an appalling act.

I thought it strange she died so soon after being on an interview a couple of days ago. Now police are looking for a white male suspect who is dangerous. All parties are united in their condemnation of her murder. Shocking crime.

What next really? Terribly sad.

Horrific. I hope they catch whoever did this, and soon.

What a dark turn of events.

I didn't share her politics but she was a great character I couldn't help but have a soft spot for her. Good grief she was 78 just a year older than myself. What a shocking thing to do.

I’m shocked. Even though I didn’t agree with her attitudes, nobody should die like that. Just awful.

Someone has been arrested. What a dreadfully sad end. She must have been so frightened, poor lady. May she rest in peace.

I just feel so very sad for her.

A cowardly attack. She was a feisty lady. so I hope she got some painful blows in on her attacker in return.
