The Evo forum really is a shadow of its former self. I remember when the internet was for the elite and now they seem to let any spastic on

RIP you mad old bat.
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.

I always liked her. Intelligent, quite witty and a bit of a badass. Also stood up to the scumbag Mick Philpott. RIP.

That's a shame, the woman was relentless.

I don’t know, a lot of her views on human rights were pretty abhorrent.

I think she was one of those conservatives who managed to hide how nasty her politics were behind her bluster. Like Boris.

This

That facade slipped more as she got older and less was at stake for her personally in saying the things she did

No tears here for her as a person, which obviously doesn't mean I condone harm being done to her
