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

She is the most popular party leader, polling posted upthread.
Why is that 'suspicious'?

Do you always call women who admire or support a politician their ‘fan girls’ or just the politicians you disapprove of?

Which surely proves the point that when you aren't in power you can say a lot of things you can't necessarily action when in power?

What she said was worse

”She said: "Maternity pay varies, depending on who you work for - but statutory maternity pay is a function of tax, tax comes from people who are working.
"We’re taking from one group of people and giving to another. This, in my view, is excessive.”

And she manages to lean into manosphere bollocks which somehow suggests women always take from the state and don’t contribute. Women (mothers) pay tax too.

This. ^ Odd comment.

’Smashing the gangs’
’Not raise taxes’ etc

Sunak called him out.

Ha very good to this and your gif post.

Polanski innit

SCRAP PRISONS, NOW

I know you think this is trump card, but it really really isn't. Try harder.

Really? Many fans on FWR.

Very much so, our Keir. I hear you.

Why vote for someone who says he will do one thing and then end up doing the exact opposite whilst feeling smug in himself. Zero strategy and leadership other than to appease unions, increase benefits and the state. I agree that commentators say he did not do his homework in opposition. So having come into power, he is like a deer in the headlights. No f--king clue how to grow the economy and create jobs.

Must confess - I am REALLY looking forward to Thursday, and the morning after the night before.

I hope MN’s servers can handle the meltdown….

It absolutely was not a “risk” to do that for her. It was perfectly in line with her position as a Shield.

The reference to MLK was a perfect example of Right-Winger Bingo though.

Also proves it's easy to lie when in opposition.

She's just a temporary spokesperson for the same old party, who has shown no remorse for what they did to this country.
I wouldn't get too excited. How many leaders did Tories go through in the last 5 years?

And ‘fangirls’? There’s plenty of the same on here for Starmer then.

I agree with this. I wasn't sure about her to begin with but definitely think that she has become a strong leader of the Conservatives.

Council elections saw huge gains for the BNP in the 2000s. Thankfully they never formed a government. Couldn’t care less about Thursday. 2028 will be the big test.

Same. Especially the everyone is suspicious and loves Starmer really posters.

Enoch Powell is famous for the rivers of blood speech.
If you read that, or the worst excerpts from it, I hope you'll agree that using is as a slur against a black woman is vile.

Why 'nope'?

Standford is known for making offers for 16 to 18 year olds and she fitted the criteria for receiving an offer, but her GP father urged her to study in the UK instead.

It would be an odd thing to lie about and, if it was a lie, it wouldn't be difficult to find out if it was a lie.

Never trust a Tory.

As we all know , there is a significant difference between speaking from opposition and governing in power.
One allows for idealism , the other demands accountability

Only because everyone else's ratings are so poor.

Never trust a man who wants to hypnotise your breasts!
