Leftist slammed after BBC live TV attack on Ann Widdecombe leaves guest threatening to walk off

Darren Grimes posting that the BBC utterly disgust him after Days Aghaji, an environmental activist, went on their main politics show this lunchtime and said this.

She was murdered in her life, especially being 78 as well.I think that's quite a sad way to go out.But yeah, I think there is a lot of controversy around how she lived her political life.I'm a real believer that the values that we hold are the politics that we practice and I feel like it would go amiss to not mention the fact that she pushed against LGBTQ plus rights throughout all of her career.I would also feel like it's time to say that she also said a lot of things about the victims of Harvey Weinstein during the Me Too.She said they chose it upon themselves.

And she was vehemently anti -abortion, which in this country is not such a political issue in the same way that it is in the States.So I feel like even though she what's happened is absolutely awful.There are a lot of people who won't be grieving this.

Nigel, do you think that's fair at a time when she's...To be honest, I'm a bit shocked to hear that.I think that's completely inappropriate and I think you will regret what you just said there.I'm just stating the facts of her political career.A lady has been murdered.

Exactly, and that's awful.

And actually, on some of the things you said, there's lots of people, there's lots of gay friends of hers, she said, and I said in the comments, many of the points she made were grounded in her faith, her beliefs.

I'm also a Christian and I don't believe the same way.

Which are shared, you may not, but respect her views and respect many other people's views who fundamentally disagree with you.And I'm really sad to be sitting here.I hear that.sitting on a chair here today.

I hear that.

I'm quite uncomfortable sitting next to you after what you just said, to be honest.

I hear that.But as someone who is queer, my rights have been affected by her speeches.She has been a part of reform, which, as someone who had to live through what was a race riots of last year, have contributed to a lot of my community having very difficult lives.At this time it's sometimes just important to stop and reflect.

like erase history she did say those things and as you said she was a vehement person supporting her own opinions and i can say the legacy that she's left has been a mixed bag for a lot of different people there's a time and a place to express those views and comments and now is not the right time well i've no idea who that woman was who was opining in the most inappropriate way hours after anne has been so brutally murdered it was appalling there's a time and a place for everything okay she disagrees with a lot of the views anne held um and she said i'm also a christian and I don't read the scriptures like that or something to that effect.Well, okay, you don't, but she did.
