Four minutes of Ann Widdecombe and Matthew Wright going at each other about Brexit | LBC

Matthew Wright speaks to former Brexit Party MEP, Ann Widdecombe, about whether it's time to apologise for Brexit. Despite the suggestion, Widdecombe stands firm, asserting that she harbours no regrets about Brexit, except for concerns related to its execution.

Tensions rise during the discussion as the ex-Tory MP accuses Wright of being rude and interrupting her, ultimately prompting Widdecombe to end the conversation.

Could've banned live exports whilst we were in the EU, daft auld bat & we ALWAYS had our own sovreignty 😮

People like her will deny it was their fault until they die - accepting responsibility for their failures or admitting to their lies is anathema to them.

Although I was driving the wrong way down the motorway, the accident wasn't my fault as the other cars hit me.

[brianbarcroft]

The EU never stopped the UK banning the export of live animals. That was entirely down to the UK. Always has been.

[tonyjeevar]

If only the Brexiteers had had an eighty seat government majority and an accommodating opposition party. Maybe then Brexit would have gone her way.

[jayyou]

Con-artists never apologize, they always blame others and double down on lies. It's never their fault. Ever.

[alana]

You insist that something is done. Then, if it goes well, you claim you were right all along.

If it goes wrong, you insist it wasn't done in the right way. Win!

Win for everyone - except those not called Widdecombe, Trump, Putin, Johnson, and Farage.

What a bunch of...

[aidenwrenn]

It might not be the brexit she voted for but it’s the one I voted against.

[lesliedellow]

“It wasn’t a proper Brexit.”

I suppose that is going to be the Brexiteers excuse from now until the end of time. I am going to grow tired of hearing it.

Widdecombe is as mad as a box of frogs. The whole thing is a total mess, but of course she, and her counterparts have to try and save face.

[andrewjones-productions]

I find it hilarious when these people who led the charge of the Brexit brigade talk about doing things 'properly'. Aside from the blatant lies and ludicrous claims they made to convince people to vote in favour of Brexit, the worst thing that they did was not do their jobs properly in working with the EU to reform it and make it into something far better and resilient. The truth of the matter is that most of these Brexit leaders are nothing more than English nationalists and have equally little interest in reforming the governance of the union of the four countries that make up the United Kingdom. Everything they claimed about the EU is evident in the UK parliament also and yet, they have no problems with that. They are nothing more than hypocrites.

[AlanFagan-yl]

They cheered from the rafters", Boris has got Brexit done!" Now it's"Not what we voted for..." Hilarious😂

[simon]

Why do we give this woman the privilege of publicity?

[virtious]

Finally an interviewer who treats Ann Widdecombe with the respect she deserves ie none!

[paulizz]

She is wrong on just about everything! not just Brexit

[PrimitiveFuturologist_YTC]

Of course she’s not sorry for what she, and others of her ilk did to the country.

[rufus]

I told all my leaver friends that once Brexit failed, which I told them was inevitable, that it wasn’t done properly would be the go to excuse. In fact these same people have used that line over and over without a hint of self awareness.

[raypurchase]

It has been a disaster. None of these politicians will take accountability for it and blame others. Its made us poorer.

[phil]

thank goodness she's no longer in front line politics

[Ihaveguitars]

Why on Earth does anybody think this woman has anything sensible to say on any subject matter?
