Has Ms Anne Widdecombe let the cat out of the bag about the true meaning of politics to a politican?

In an unguarded moment Ms Anne Widdecombe said in a newspaper article





'That is what politics is - a kaleidoscope of shifting alliances. Let's face it, Denis Skinner and I could drink on some issues!'





Or maybe her animal passions ran away with her!








I naively thought that a politician was supposed to represent their constituents!





(She has already announced her intention not to stand at the next General Election)

In Washington DC, her comment would be called a ';gaffe.'; As one old time reporter defines the term, ';A gaffe is where a politician accidently tells the truth.';Has Ms Anne Widdecombe let the cat out of the bag about the true meaning of politics to a politican?
Sorry, when you mention Widdy, I kinda recoil. I like what P J O'Rourke says about politicians... ';are like diapers. They need to be changed frequently, and for the same reason.';
Miss Anne who? Is that a Harry Potter character?
