I have never liked drag acts and must admit that when Mr. O'Grady was Lily Savage I scarcely watched him. I have always had a problem with men dressing up as women but it is probably not politically correct for me to say that these days. However that arch conservative Ms. Widdecombe, although allegedly retired from politics, never loses any opportunity on television to push her extreme right wing views. Even on The One Show the other night she started off with a tirade against "Red Ed" (a contradiction in terms) and the dangers of socialism. For an early evening light hearted chat show I thought this was out of order and I hope a representative from the Labour Party is given the right of reply on the programme to balance her extremist views.
There is even a suggestion in the press that she may be, with others, about to found the British equivalent of the despicable American Tea party. She is now trying to ingratiate herself into the nation's hearts by appearing in Strictly Come Dancing. She doesn't dance but puts on an act, but unlike John sergeant, hasn't add the good grace to pull out and nor would I expect her to as she lives on the oxygen of publicity. However after a recent show in which O'Grady poured out his wrath on The Coalition and it's cuts (see below) he turned his wrath on her telling The Times, " I can't feel warmth for a woman who said that pregnant female prisoners should be shackled .. You don't kid me Miss Widdecombe".
