British/English Proud. 🇬🇧🏴 DraperNation



As we continue to honour Ann Widdecombe’s life, we look back at one of the most electric, defiant, and unforgettable speeches in modern British political history. 🇬🇧 Delivered in Strasbourg in July 2019, the Rt Hon Ann Widdecombe DSG took to the floor of the European Parliament and left an indelible mark. She did not mince her words, and she certainly did not play by the establishment’s rules. She spoke with the power of a woman entirely secure in her convictions. 🗣️ Ann confronted the chamber directly – reminding its members that true power belongs to sovereign peoples, not an unaccountable, centralised bureaucracy. 🏛️ Her legendary closing remarks – delivered with trademark wit, impeccable timing, and absolute certainty – perfectly captured the spirit of a nation determined to chart its own course. It remains a masterclass in fearless political oratory. Impossible to intimidate, impossible to imitate, and impossible to replace. Her thunderous voice, sharp wit, fierce patriotism, and formidable strength will never be forgotten. 🩵 📣 “NOUS ALLONS. WIR GEHEN.
