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 togetherness 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.

I thought it was quite obvious, it gets people talking and looking at their newspaper Controversy sells
