The operative word being hag presumably?

What's particularly bugging me at the moment are the cries of "Show respect for the dead" which seem to be coming from all corners of the establishment. "Yes", they say, "She may have done many harsh and cruel things in her time, but she deserves a respectful burial, the same as everyone else."

Respectful burials? Would that include Fred and Rosemary West, Harold Shipman, Jimmy Savile and all the other people who were shunned by humanity as unworthy of respectful burials?
