Ex-Labour candidate and university employee is being investigated after saying she hoped Ann Widdecombe suffered an ‘extremely painful death’

A transgender former Labour candidate who celebrated the death of Ann Widdecombe and prayed she had ‘screamed in agony’ is now being investigated over the comments.

Heather Herbert, a web developer at Aberdeen University, relished in the ‘good news’ of the former Tory MP’s death in a vile post on BlueSky.

Both police and her employer launched an investigation after the comments, posted before news of the murder probe broke, were reported by members of the public.

But Ms Herbert later doubled down, insisting she was ‘glad [Ms Widdecombe] was dead’ – even after deeply distressing details of the 78-year-old’s murder emerged.

The hard-Left has been condemned
