The Spin


Right narrative

Premature police assertions and attacks on those who dared to question the official narrative have been exposed as at best naïvety and at worst an institutional cover-up. Despite attempts to censor legitimate questions, it is clear that Widdecombe's murder was indeed politically motivated. Until the liberal establishment wake up and realize the consequences of their radical rhetoric, right wing politicians will remain in serious danger.

Left narrative

This newfound involvement of Counter Terrorism Police into Widdecombe's murder does not exonerate Reform's despicable politicization of a heinous crime. Well before any facts had been established, Farage and his cronies were making unfounded accusations in an attempt to distract from their ongoing corruption scandals. Any attempt to martyr a controversial figure of British politics should not distract from Reform's dark underbelly.
