Kemi Badenoch discussion

Is that still a thing? It hasn't happened to me yet or to any of my friends, some of whom are approaching 80.

We're the generation who saw the damage the Tories did under Thatcher as young(ish) adults, I wonder if that makes a difference? Although thinking about it, my parents never voted Tory either.

it also relied on those in their 40s and 50s being financially secure with their house on a trajectory to be paid off and their offspring able to get on the property ladder with minimal support

Kemi's finally realised she might need a softer approach. Looks like she's more talking about towards her fellow Conservatives than any immigrants, unfortunately.

Badenoch admits she may need a softer approach

The Tory leadership frontrunner admits she may need to "calibrate" her approach, see by some as combative.

she sounds like a graduate trainee any time she opens her mouth. I'd imagine she will crash and burn quickly once she's leader and forced to do more media.

No evidence other than political instinct but can't shake the feeling she's going to win the leadership election...

What is the point of you

Sure I heard someone on the radio suggest whoever wins will be the leader of the tory party for the next five years. Yeeeeaaaahhhh...

Once he loses, Jenrick will presumably fuck off to the Farage Party and take twenty or so MPs with him.
