Had no idea she was this age, very sad news. Rest in Peace Shirley Williams.
Every word of this -Shirley Williams’ final speech to the House of Lords four years ago. It feels like she is describing a different world given the attack the institutions she mentions are under today. She made a big difference when she was among us RIPhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-politics-35427305 …

RIP Shirley. A proper old school politician

Always liked her. She talked sensibly, intelligently and calmly unlike the bunch of bully boys we are subjected too now.

Still very active with her local branch of the LibDems until recently. Star turn during the Brexit campaign. Often seen at the local station pottering to and from London. RIP

I always admired Shirley Williams. Am so very sad to hear this. An inspirational woman. Time for me to read her memoir “ Climbing the Bookshelves”

Wonderful lady. An inspiration to the young me and the old me. She was an oasis. The perfect antidote to the shrill, brutal Thatcher. Searing intelligence, with warmth and humanity. Sad loss.

I was privileged to be there. She warned against the threats to tame the BBC that come from the Conservatives. She wanted the UK to lead internationally, not leave the EU and she valued our public services like the NHS. I was proud to be there then. What courage and dignity.

Courage and dignity. Hear. Hear.
