Ann Widdecombe is a former Conservative MP, Minister of State, author, and one of Britain’s most outspoken political voices. In this interview with EWTN's Colm Flynn, Ann reflects on her unusual upbringing moving between places due to her father’s military work, her decision to enter politics, and her long career built on conviction rather than popularity. She speaks candidly about her outspoken conservative views, her faith journey and conversion to the Catholic Church, and the great honour of being made a Dame of the Order of St Gregory the Great by Pope Benedict XVI in 2013 for her services to politics and public life. Now in later life, she also shares her reflections on mortality, legacy, and why she has always believed in doing what is right rather than what is easy. Whether you admire her convictions or disagree with her politics, this is a fascinating and unfiltered insight into a woman who has never been afraid to stand her ground.
