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

You just know Farage will use this as justification for his £5m security needs.
