I quite like Ann but I think she may be strapped for cash and at her age I don’t think she can secure an income in any other way.

Your research is about as good as Emma's. She's old, she must be broke.


"Ann is the former MP for Maidstone, Ann is an author, writer, broadcaster and outstanding speaker who is also extremely well known for her many TV appearances and strong opinions. Her impressive and extensive political and television career make Miss Widdecombe a highly interesting and well experienced public speaker and allowing her to be at ease with any audience and any event, corporate or private. Ann is also happy to take any questions post-speech, dealing with them as a true politician."

Cost per appearance: £4-5000
