BREAKING: Ann Widdecombe has DIED aged 78

BREAKING: Ann Widdecombe, the former minister, MP, MEP and champion of Brexit, has died aged 78.

Ms Widdecombe was an outspoken backer of leaving the EU, and served as a Member of the European Parliament for the Brexit Party.

She also served as a Tory MP for over two decades before leaving the Commons in 2010.

Nearly a decade later, Ms Widdecombe returned to elected politics, leaving her mark on the EU for Nigel Farage’s Reform UK precursor – and later would represent Reform as its immigration and justice spokeswoman.
