To think Kemi Badenoch is starting to talk an increasing amount of sense

[Sonato]

Never voted conservative a day in my life.

Seriously comsidering it after recent performances

You know, it’s funny (it’s not).

The Tories lost the GE - Labour is in government, and in the space of less than two years have presided over more u-turns and policy/vetting failures than the Tories did in 14 years (pandemic and Brexit aside).

People didn’t elect a Labour government - they elected a bunch of hopeless back benchers in hock to their constituents. That’s where the real power lies.

The UK has become a welfare state, and many voters have had enough. You will not have long to find out.

And just how do you know that?

Don't tell me - you read it on social media or the press.

From the same source who scooped Rayner’s tax fiddling.

So - it’s reliable.

Yes she is getting really bold and straight talking. No waffke waffle like her predecessor. Its great she is standing up for our jewish communities.

Most people would stand up for Jewish and Muslim communities suffering hate crimes, why does she need a medal for that? We should also stand up for the right to peacefully protest against Israeli atrocities .

I'm not a Labour voter and I don't vote Tory either but oddly enough every party who has leafleted me over the Scottish elections have promised to lower my energy bills. Isn't that brilliant. I'll judge Badenoch by her record if she ever gets into power - not by anything she's saying just now

This is the same party that wanted to send people to Rwanda - and it was declared unlawful. If people think that Badenoch cares about the ordinary working person - I doubt it. Farage doesn't either

Lots of politicians support single sex spaces as well - some prominent Labour MPs do.

And that source is?

How Kemi Badenoch handled that encounter was pleasing. It demonstrated the importance of engaging in civilised debate rather than relying on the scripted soundbites typical of repetitive single-issue, special-interest activists.

We're not talking about Muslims here.

☝️This.

Starmer got to the same place as Kemi, after dithering and pissing if the US. Not much point beyond virtue signalling to the faithful.

Oh you mean for disabled people like me who had a pretty much life changing accident? How dare I

Can you provide any actual evidence that Kemi called for the UK to join the war? Other than the points I've already put to you about airbases and catching arrows?
A John Crace opinion piece isn't evidence of what you are saying.

She’s rating above others, it’s getting people going. All good, she can keep going as some others drop behind.

The evidence seems to be that no, they won’t. Particularly for Jews.

Are you really that gullible?

What the green party leader did last week and how he has jumped on the populist bandwagon is a very important and regrettable turn in British politics. It was disgusting and uncouth behaviour. Jewish people in the Uk are being hounded and killed, their communities attacked, we all know who's behind these atrocities (!) and how these criminals feel about the Palestine issue.

Let an internet search engine show you the path to enlightenment.

There was similar to this re Rayner and then she did go. Let’s see, Thursday might get them off the pot.

Are you suggesting Rayner didn’t fiddle tax?

Really? Come now.

I think she’s great and she has my full support. She’s not perfect but has grown immensely in her role and I think she has great potential to be an excellent PM.

How odd, but if you say so….

"I would say to Labour MPs, we are in this war whether they like it or not. What is the prime minister waiting for?" she added. (Kemi Badenoch)**

Its in The Times.

@timetakesacigarette has nailed it

@Timetakesacigarette

you do realise that the last Labour Government bankrupted the country? And this one is well onto the same way.

Dear Gordon Brown sold all the gold, and started grabbing pensions funds

No the Tory’s didn’t do a good job, but then they had nothing to work with really hence austerity, which any future government will need to consider because of Rachel and her inability to be a good chancellor (not sure what she has on Keir but there must be something she should have gone a long time ago)

as to noses in the trough, are you seriously telling me Labour ( and indeed other parties) don’t do the same? Mrs S and her dresses? Remember that?

All parties are the same, all full of career MPs who have never held down a job in the real world
