Hit over the head with a hammer 21 times.

Regardless of one's views of her religious beliefs, no one deserves to go like that. Sickening.

The country is so divided. It feels like we become more like America every day. There are quite clearly two radically different visions for the country and neither side is going to accept the other side's vision. Then we have those in the middle mocked and politicians doomed to failure as they try and play both sides.

People kicking up for someone singing a song about a pensioner, people literally with no compassion whatsoever for the murder of one, for her political views, it’s a sick world We live in.

Farage needs the country divided to have any chance of success.

Widdicombe’s family have again asked for no further comment and speculation but are again being ignored by Farage and his band of ghouls.

Horrendous. I never aligned with her views politically but nobody deserves to be on the receiving end of such a brutal and horrific crime as that. Anyone who thinks her beliefs make it in any way acceptable is a very sick individual.

and 80% of people are in the middle. 10% loons on either wing shouting very loudly.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

Urgh. Just bumped into a post on Facebook with some utterly vile comments by far left and far right idiots. Far leftists gloating over her death, far rightists dehumanizing people who have gender dysphoria or choose to live as a trans person.

Abusing each other for their views, totally oblivious to the irony that this senseless, brutal murder should teach us all that opinions are one thing, but common, human decency is quite another, and the day we can't separate our opinions from being a decent human being even if the person opposite has an opposing view, is the day we are going down an awful, awful path.

It's not that hard...if you're continually* telling people they're arsehole scum commies / centrists / fascists, then maybe you're part of the problem. We've forgotten how to disagree with grace and the acceptance that we might just be wrong.

it's her political beliefs which were far more reprehensible than any "religious" ones, but absolutely no-one should be treated in such a diabolical way. may well have had nothing to do with her politics in any case

I don't claim to know why court processes are long and drawn out,.but I agree. If there is video footage of the crime,why on earth is the trial set for a year's time?

"the acceptance that we might just be wrong".

This, 1 million times over.

Maybe, just maybe, we are not right. We are not the world-leading expert, and maybe we can learn by listening to opposing opinions and keeping an open mind.

Sorry to blow any tiny little mind out there with my radical thinking.

I'm in an interesting position. From a religious point of view, I believe that biological sex is finite and indisputable.

However, I have a family member who is trans, and I completely empathize with the difficult emotional journey they have been on.

It is completely possible to have an opinion on something but still have empathy for a person who takes an opposite stance. Opinion<kindness

This is very well put and exactly what I think.
People deserve personal support to live their lives exactly how they want to. At the same time we can still hold the view you expressed without extremists accusing us of being phobic or whatever other epithets they throw

It’s very interesting that you think something should or could be “gained” by discourse and conversation. It’s almost as if you see TWTD as a competition you’re trying to win and imagine others also do so.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!
