Ann Widdecombe Portrait Installed in Parliament for Returning Members

A portrait of Ann Widdecombe, the former Conservative MP and minister, has been installed in Parliament ahead of the return of Members of Parliament. This placement is part of a broader initiative by current and former MPs to create a permanent tribute to her service.

The framed photograph depicts Widdecombe during her parliamentary career, which spanned from 1987 to 2010. She held various ministerial roles, including Minister of State for Prisons and junior minister at the Department of Employment.

This memorial effort reflects a tradition within Westminster to honour significant political figures. The installation serves as a visual recognition of Widdecombe's contribution to public life, particularly as a prominent figure within the Conservative Party for over two decades.
