Ann Widdecombe hilariously told Iain Dale off after he asked her about gay rights
| Updated: 10 Feb 2026
Iain Dale asked Ann Widdecombe if she would vote for a reversal of gay marriage and she gave him a thorough and hilarious telling off.
Iain, as a gay man, was also questioned on social media about whether he should interview Ann Widdecombe, who has been accused in the past of being anti-gay.
"How long have we been friends, Iain?" she asked, and it turns out the pair have been friends for 20 years.
She admonished that she came here as a Brexit Party candidate not to answer views on gay rights - and she dramatically rolled her eyes.
