Kemi Badenoch’s time is up!

[SpookyFrank]

She's taking the piss, surely. Otherwise who the hell is she trying to appeal to?

To be fair, just being her unfiltered, incredibly off-putting self has got her pretty close to the top of the shitheap already. No reason for her change tack now.

It's Thatcher-lite. Who needs lunch like who needs sleep. 2/10.

 

[Sue]

I just wish someone would bring me lunch rather than having to get/make it myself.

She sounds like Del Boy from Only Fools and Horses, when he was going through his Gordon Gekko phase.

In that case, looking forward to her falling down phase

The media do seem to be hung up on the "how dare she insult the Great British sandwich" angle of this story with Starmer and Farage chipping in to score the most barrel scraping culture war points ever. The British Sandwich Association has been contacted for comment. Well I'm on team Badenoch. Let her be a weird anti-lunch, anti-sandwich person if she wants to be.

The whole lot of them - journos and politicians - are nuts.

She's made a song and dance about being anti woke and here she is attacking British culture. Not a brilliant way to try and win back the far right headbangers from Reform.

She's done. Game over. It's a wrap.

To a degree, yes, though as Boo Radley75 says, she has directed a very particular word to people who carry out a largely ordinary and traditional concept of...er.... having a lunch break. It doesn't make her look or sound reasonable. See also her maternity pay comments ("too generous"). There's something about working people she finds ridiculous, she can't understand them.

It's a very special type of headbanger who is worried about the sandwich.

I think sandwiches are a cross class thing tbh.

Reform voters are a very special type of headbanger.

A Conservative Party peer is facing a three-week suspension from the House of Lords for referring to a British Asian peer as 'Lord Poppadom' and touching the hair of a British African MP without permission.

Lady Catherine Meyer faces censure after two complaints were made about her conduct during a visit by the Joint Committee on Human Rights to Rwanda earlier this year.

Her predecessors were more the soggy biscuit types, fondly recalled from their school days.

Yeah, but she forgot to add, she hates Love Actually because the British Prime Minister stands up to a sex pest US President sexually harassing his staff and in Die Hard, she's rooting for Alan Rickman.

She probably watches The Great Escape and roots for the nazis tbf.

Steve McQueen was trying to cross the Swiss border illegally after all.

Her head will roll once the mp's have sent in their letters.

Imagine her having PR people so shit that they didn't know the answer was a Greggs sausage roll.

I am 'reliably' informed from social media that Badenoch's 56% of the 95,000 votes represents the lowest winning level of support among Conservative members in any leadership election in its history.

They have only had about 3 or 4 members votes though i think? (Used to be just mp's)

2001 (when ian duncan shit was elected) was apparently the first vermin party leadership election that went to the party members.

She sees Argentina as goals.

Badenoch is looking around the world for inspiration. 'I am very interested in how radical you can be on the right, [such as] Javier Milei in Argentina. I remember when he had those white boards and he was ripping everything down and he was saying "Afuera! Afuera!". I loved it but I was thinking, "Would that work? I don't think people will like that". So it isn't just the fact that he's been doing it, but that it is working.'

 

[brogdale]

She sees Argentina as goals.

And, today, spouting flat-tax extremist aspirations to tax-dodgers from a pantomime set:

The leader of the opposition made the comments on Monday while standing on a Robin Hood pantomime set at the London Palladium, which owner Andrew Lloyd Webber had lent to farmers and business owners so they could stage an event protesting against changes to inheritance tax.

She said: “This is an idea that I’ve heard many times. It’s very attractive, but if we’re going to get to that sort of scenario, there’s a lot of work we need to do first-hand. At the moment, we are a welfare state with a little bit of a productivity attached to it. We’ve got to turn that around. We cannot afford flat taxes where we are now. We need to make sure we rewire our economy so that we can lighten the burden of tax and the regulation on individuals and on those businesses that are just starting out, in particular.”

Looks like she's already teeing up her after-dinner speeches career, like Truss.

Lots of words. Means absolutely bugger all.

 

[GarveyLives]

Even elements within her own organisation's daily fanzine are already losing patience with someone who, to date, is proving to be a living embarrassment:

Kemi Badenoch is Reform’s dream come true

TBF Love Actually is a hideous piece of shit and Starmer should be attacked, physically and viscously, for his taste in movies (as well as everything else).
