Seeing as Reform have resorted to lying about Kemi’s position on policing, race, and the murder of Henry Nowak, here is the full interview.

Judge for yourself.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

After 18 months of “standing up to Putin” the Labour govt quietly issued a licence allowing imports of Russian oil refined in third countries.

Yesterday Labour MPs voted AGAINST UK oil and gas licences.

We are now importing from Russia instead of drilling in the North Sea.

Insane.

The headline unemployment rate increased to 5% & youth unemployment up to 14.7% in March. These figures are before above-inflation rises in NMW & new employment rights. ONS highlights impact on retail & hospitality, traditionally the source of first jobs for many young people

@PegasusPrince2 Can relate. Feel like giving up after watching this year’s contest.

[Michael Crick @MichaelLCrick]

In two to three years time, when Starmer and his government are no doubt deeply unpopular, I hope we in the media will ask ourselves: "Why were we so supine during the long 2024 election; why didn't we hold Labour properly to account while we could, and ask more probing questions, and explore their records, rather than give them such an easy ride?".

[Nick Taylor @EnBeeTee]

@jhallwood Have they seen the result in Wales?!

Starmer and Hermer chose to tear up the protections, that Conservatives put in place, to stop our brave veterans being dragged through the courts in their old age. They claim the courts had left them no choice.

Well guess what?

My Shadow Attorney General stepped in, acted pro bono for veterans and won: the UKSC have reinstated immunities and confirmed that the vast majority of our Act is lawful.

When a lower court said the Legacy Act breached the ECHR and the Windsor Framework, Labour did not appeal. It suited them to hide behind international law rather than stand up for those who served our country.

There was no legal duty to betray our veterans. Starmer and Hermer chose to do that. Conservatives chose to fight for them.

I'm proud of @DXW_KC, @AWNDinsmore and my Shadow Northern Ireland & Defence Teams for keeping up this fight.

We are the ONLY party actually holding Labour to account. Farage did not bother to turn up last Monday and vote against Labour’s terrible anti-veterans bill.

Another reason to VOTE CONSERVATIVE today.

[Mims Davies MP @mimsdavies]

Please listen to this.

Devastating to hear.

Everyone giving out platitudes.

Stop and actually listen to our Jewish friends and neighbours.

[Mims Davies MP @mimsdavies]

This guy is simply an angry wind bag - do not voters in Sussex risk it - look at the mess in Kent.
No solutions. Just noise.

Please join me in praying for a swift and complete recovery for the victims of today’s attack:

Moshe Ben Baila.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Jewish people in our country are under constant attack.

This is no longer a growing pattern. There is an epidemic of violence against Jewish people.

It is now a national emergency and needs to be treated as such by the Government and public authorities.

[Nick Taylor @EnBeeTee]

@scotbythesea Those peers are only doing what the elected House failed to do which was to adequately scrutinise the bill. A PMB was always the wrong mechanism and lack of professional body support is deeply concerning.

[Fraser Nelson @FraserNelson]

Reform isn't just a party - it's a business empire with unprecedented financial links to crypto and media.

To many, this is fine: a new party with a new power base.
To others, it's illiberal democracy in the making.

At very least, we need the debate:-

We were told the PM was a master diplomat. But Britain's foreign policy has collapsed. Its defence policy has collapsed. Its major strategic alliances have collapsed. And now Putin and our other adversaries can smell our weakness > Mail on Sunday > https://t.co/RiY5N8WqCX

@tomhfh The navy could do with the money!

[Nick Taylor @EnBeeTee]

@jhallwood I didn’t know that! In truth, the CofE is a pretty poor custodian of its heritage.
