She’s genuinely fucking *mental*. I thought Truss was batshit but this is just ridiculous.
that is utter insanity.
I think the problem she has with Reform is that all of those “shooting my self in the foot” / “working class Tories” have finally seen the light when it comes to the Tories. They have gone over to Reform. Without them its obviously much harder for the Tories to be elected.
Her plan is seemingly to try an kid those people into thinking Reform is “left wing”, crazy plan. Reform is eating Trump ass, and she thinks she can make people think they are LEFT wing?
She’s like a whining, irrelevant noise in the background that just won’t stop.
Is Kemi ok? Like, does someone need to check on her?
Same nutty bollocks we’ve come to expect though, someone says something Kemi has to go the opposite. Meetings with her must be like talking to an annoying nephew.
I’m just surprised that there are enough people still listening to the Tories to be able to write an article on what they’re saying.
Right is Left…
This is all getting a bit more Orwellian.
I believe this is intentional. Make the conservatives unelectable and then the dissatisfied morons will flock to Reform.
Using the American playbook of calling anybody you dislike ‘left’ or ‘liberal’ doesn’t really work when the person you’re using that particular slur towards sits very much to the right of your own party.
Imagine Farage being too left wing for you. Complete insanity
Can we just fire Kemi Badenoch for being bad at her job? Who in the Tory Party is keeping her as leader?
Are they really trying to one up each other on being… silly?
She’s trying to normalise them so people think it’s ok to vote for them. This is what the far right do (which the tory party are as well now) to become mainstream and have their ideologies become mainstream. Don’t allow it to happen
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bigger waste of a leadership contest
I assume she has no credible pathway to actually competing with them for voters, then.
Until politicians are corrected live every time they out and out lie, journalism will remain an utter farce.
I’ve heard of ‘horseshoe theory’, she’s obviously inventing ‘Circle theory’.
Hard to figure out if she’s that thick, if she thinks the public is that thick or a bit of both.
Tory mps probably wondering why they made her the leader.
This is right out of the Trump playbook.
* Anything I disagree with is left wing / socialist.
* Anything I am threatened by is extreme-left wing / communist.
It’s the standard “see reds everywhere”, “them vs us” propaganda bullshit that the US and coincidentally the Russians like to utilize in their demonisation of people who oppose them.
Now I’m not saying Kemi is a Russian supporter, but she’s certainly a US fangirl ([ahh memories](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/kemi-badenoch-trump-inauguration-uk-tariff-b2682029.html)) so take anything she says with a pinch of salt because like Liz Truss (another Trump acolite) they are dangerous.
Well of course! It’s leader is famously left wing after all /s
She shouldn’t be allowed to use a knife and fork this woman, she’s dangerous
Absolutely screaming out “we have no idea what our party identity is any more”.
No Kemi you halfwit. It’s you lot but even worse. Ie Cuts to public services and cuts to taxes for the rich dressed up as simplistic unworkable solutions to complicated problems
This is the only angle the Conservatives have left.
Asserting confidence in this dead party I see… Carry on please
British politics is now just three right wing parties all accusing each other of being Socialists.
Reform might well ‘court left-wing voters’ by lying that they will defend the NHS. We all know that if they ever do get into power they will take a hatchet to the British State. Lies, they are lying, lying, liars.
If the Tories genuinely planned on only having her in for 1-2 years so they can replace her mid term with a new face not associated with the last government fair enough.
Absolute utter insanity if she leads them into the next election. They WILL go extinct if this happens.
So Reform are so far right wing they’ve been regularly compared to the Nazis, and Kemi is of the opinion that’s too left wing for what she wants?
People who don’t even know left from right want to run this country now.
They’re all trying to emulate Trump – the goal isn’t to say anything accurate, it’s to say so much different shit that nobody ever has time to realise how false all of it is.
But the idea that reform is in any way left wing is fully insane – they want to privatise the NHS, cut taxes for the rich and eliminate state spending (i.e- all the things that the poorest rely on to barely scrape by).
She’s delusional, to be honest they all are. Selfish, greedy pieces of shit that deserve the electric chair. I can’t stand Kier but still, insane to call him a traitor because he’s taken the EU’s deal for higher food standards when Britain’s standards sucks donkey ass. What’s insane was leaving the EU in the first place, if anything she’s the traitor
she is so unlikeable
when she was at the [post office inquiry](https://youtu.be/9eL5ALjYsKU?si=DRWDdd4oRDQn8Rj8) her bumbling, nervous and rude self really showed. the way she treated Sir Henry Staunton was actually insane. never thought almost a year on she’s be tory party leader
Jesus wept! Is this the level of politics we’ve got right now?
“They’re more left wing than we are.”
“Oh no we’re not.”
“Oh yes you are.”
“Oh no we’re not.”
“Well we’re more right wing than you are.”
“Oh no you’re not.”
“Oh yes we are.”
“Oh no you’re not.”
Bunch of fucking numpties the lot of them. I think we need a ‘The whole lot of them can get in the bin’ option at the next election. Bunch of timewasting chancers and gasbags, the lot of them.
I’m being serious. Out of the 650 MPs a very clear 600 of them need to fuck off out of Westminster and go find a soul.
Looks like an admission that she believes Tory voters (or potential Tory voters) are politically illiterate.
Sounds about right.
Has any party had such a magnificent uninterrupted run of treating the electorate like idiots as the Tory party?
Problem is, the electorate generally are idiots, going by the appeal of three word slogans and their voting record
Left wing? The right has now moved so far right they e run out of room!
lol if Farage is to the left of you, what does that make you? Super-Hitler? What a bizarre thing to say
