This odious woman needs to stop being given platforms to spout her prehistoric views.

I agree.
She was a hard-line uncompromising individual during the 90s during the Con government.
She was even someone, My Father who was usually a strong Con voter at the time, disliked intensely for her views.

She still is.
Then claims to be a devout Christian.
Yet spouts out all her bigotry.
I can't see any excuses for her at all.
I think she'd just a horrible bigoted individual not worth the time of day frankly.

Yet as you mention, she gets snapped up by the media because she's going to just about always say something grossly offensive to groups of society or even individuals.
Which she'll lump together too, to emphasise her own bigotry.

Why the media dig these people out for their views to be so widely reported is unbelievable.
There's many others too.
However I don't think I've ever really agreed with a thing Widdecombe has said.
Then again, I've never been a supporter of those who spout out their own personal, hate, bigotry and judgemental prejudice like Widdecombe seems to thrive on doing.

Then it's time something was done to ensure that those who have had to battle to get hard earned rights, don't have that questioned and controversy or deliberate offence raised to fuel more discord or prejudice against groups.

The only reason this awful woman is saying this as she did, is her own prejudice against anyone being of the LGBT communities.

It's because 2 people of the same sex are paired together in an entertainment show.

Are you trying to say she's right to fuel the still very sadly in my view, prejudice against LGBT rights and those individuals.
I personally don't think you are myself.

However, I see no reason to dredge up this woman and her worrying religious bigotry and personal prejudice against LGBT rights, which she's never supported.
To present that as news or relevant in a public service so called newspapers or any other outlet.

Just don't give these, as reece termed her, prehistoric bigots any platform.

I would claim to hold to Christian beliefs myself,I know one thing, were I to enter a church where Widdecombe was, I'd leave however.
Because she uses her severe more old testament views,as to her lgbt bigotry and prejudice.
Not thinking of the possible consequences of her words said publicly.

The publications and media that give her that platform are equally responsible for trying to sow more discord.

She singled out the 2 participants because of one thing only, they were competing and are a same sex pairing, which she says families don't want to see.
For me that's indefensible 100%.

So she'd have that pairing out of Strictly.
That's the undercurrent to her comments and personal prejudice.
That would be her aim.
Sending her hateful message to families that she believes they shouldn't support a same sex couple dancing on Strictly.
With sickeningly media allowing her to make her ugly bigoted view too.

I think that's wrong, wholly wrong.

She always comes across as really miserable so I couldn’t care what she says to be perfectly honest.

let's just leave this for what it is pls

let those enjoy if they like this first same-sex dance couple, and others who don't, you can still support any of the other couples, i mean you got one of the more high profile comedians Bill Bailey to root for and tbh he isn't a bad dancer or at least what we saw in that group dance


i stick with the saying ''live and let live'' i mean Nicola Adams is a great sports signing, and tbh her being a lesbian, opting to dance with a woman, especially also saying she wants to play as the ''male'' in every performance, so no dresses, it is her right to do it like that, and respects to Katya for accepting this too to be her dance partner

you don't have to follow their journey while watching the show, i mean there are 11 other couples

well her career in a nutshell, which is also why she fits perfectly into that troll brexit party with her fellow homophobe bigot moron Farage

Thankfully its homophobic life is nearly over so why even give it the time of day?

Like....the woman has made it clear she thinks all gay people should be wiped off the face of the face of the Earth, should be allowed nowhere near children and believes that gay people can be cured as though we’re some form of disease.

But yeah. Let’s not call her an old bag. That’s just totally unacceptable.

I couldn't give a **** what you call her I'm just pointing out that when you use broad-spectrum insults, you don't only insult the target. She is obviously a piece of sh*t. The difference is that when I call her a piece of sh*t, there isn't an actual piece of sh*t out there to be offended by it being pointed out that it's bad to be sh*t... whereas when you use "old" as an insult, you're telling all old people that "being old is bad". I'm sure you get it, but feel free to continue pretending not to out of banal incredulity or whatever.

I'm not bothered on her age.
She was the same rotten so and so when she was younger.

I know people much older who have none of the prejudices this awful woman has.

Yes however, it's both sad and a shame any would even give veiled defence of her with her rotten and vile bigoted views.

i am more bothered, because she does make elderly look bad in general, with her being a miserable vile negative woman all the time

her views are just way out of date


tbh one politician whom i did like, Edwina Currie and she was first boot on strictly which i found sad, since i found her coming across nicely with Vincent

shame how a Ann made it that far undeservingly, and Edwina did not get the public behind her
