WIDDECOMBE TO STAND DOWN AS MP

21.03.08, 1:44am

I'm in shock! I have only just found out that Ann Widdecombe is standing down at the next election. She is the only one of any of the parties to talk straight forward common sense.

Good luck, good health and happiness in your retirement Ann, you deserve it.

Shame you can't be our next Prime Minister! I'd vote for you any day.

There goes the best prime minister that never was....

This woman talks a lot of sense and takes no flak...

Far better than David Cameron being in No 10, Doris would have been perfect.
