Re: Brexit
Anne Widdecombe has resigned from the Tory party to join and stand as a candidate for Farrages party, citing that the way Brexit has been handled has made us a laughing stock.

Never thought i'd see her defect.

On the contrary, it shows she is truly a religious/social/political conservative. It is perceived social liberalism in the C of E that has resulted in a number of defections to Rome, and it is the Conservative PM's failure to deliver on a referendum called as a result of Conservative policy and whose outcome clearly still enjoys very widespread support amongst Conservative voters (as well as others) that has caused her to jump ship now.
A phrase I often hear grassroots Tories recite at times like this is 'I never left the party, the party left me'.
On the other hand, doing Strictly and Big Brother ... they show off her form as a troublemaker.

Yes probably why Tony Blair went RC too !
I can see why the Archbishop of Canterbury going on about poverty and food banks, has upset some Conservatives. They'll have women priests and treat them as equals next !

It shows that she can think for herself rather than mindlessly following the crowd.

Seems highly relevant to Brexit.
May was/is not a clever person yet she did just that and let the EU crap all over her.
The clever person would have told the EU when this stuff (A50) started that we were leaving in two years and invited the EU’s proposals. We would have used the 2 years for No Deal preparations and the Backstop would not have been able to be proposed by the EU.
Maybe it did have something to do with TM’s religious beliefs!

May is just completely inept. Even outside of Brexit-related issues, what has she got right?
