And I bet people wouldn't comment on her non religious background or her husband and kids . But because she doesn't have those things people pick on her .

I mean, I'm pretty sure Ann Widdecombe was brought up as an Anglican, and converted to Catholicism in 1993 because it was more in line with her views, and said women being ordained was the last straw for her. I'm pretty sure Church of England is more tolerant to LGBT people, so it's not that big of a leap to suggest that the less tolerant approach to gay rights that the Catholic Church has and Ann has make religion a very likely factor to her homophobia... especially when she said marriage is between a man and a woman for religious reasons
I don't see anyone using her marital status against her so Idk what to say to that but anywah
