@seledka_vodka @pritipatel Fair point - contrition doesn’t seem to come easily to her 🤣

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Being Prime Minister is about making the difficult decisions in the national interest.

If we keep acting like it’s a popularity contest, we will keep getting Prime Ministers who know how to get elected, but don’t know how to govern.

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@seledka_vodka @KemiBadenoch Agree with all this and I’m sure it’ll come. Thing is, we have potentially 3 years to fill so it’s ok to take some time communicating these things so long as they are happening and - as you suggested - they are. Kemi’s priority needs to be holding Labour to account though

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@TimesRadio @KemiBadenoch @KateEMcCann She’s spot on. The change over is fine but defence spending needs to be gripped asap and we need to know what Burnham actually stands for. But I have a feeling he’ll go the same way as Starmer in no time at all

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@TimesRadio @StigAbell @NickTorfaen Thanks for calling this out Stig. As a Tory voter I don’t much mind either way but the shameless self serving hypocrisy is staggering and why no one likes or trusts politicians. At least Kemi is only calling for a GE if they can’t sort out defence. Glad someone has principles

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Keir Starmer has gone because he confused winning a general election with having an agenda for government.

My mission to Get Britain Working is different. I know what needs to change. More importantly, I know how to do it and I have taken the time to do the work so that it actually happens.

@Sherelle_E_J Big assumption there. Reform keep failing to win by-elections so it may be they come third or fourth because their anti vote is stronger

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@ArchiesPolitics Kemi is the only one who can deliver this for the right. Anyone else will face tactical voting to block them

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@RSFarley @PopBase You can’t pick and choose. Cameron was elected in 2010 so we’ll have had 7 prime ministers in 16 years. Using stats in odd ways to suit a narrative just looks stupid

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@Steven_Swinford Kemi hasn’t

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@DPJHodges That’s why Kemi isn’t calling for one

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@benjaminbutter So biased you can’t even contemplate success of your opponents. Cameron led through yeh financial crisis and lasted 6 years, so ok Amy metric better than Brown & Starmer plus any of the Tories. You call yourself a ‘journalist’ 🙄

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@christopherhope @GBNEWS Opposition usually call for elections because ppl expect them to. But the Tories didn’t call elections so she’s avoiding the charge of hypocrisy

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@CamillaTominey Yes I didn’t hear them complaining when it happened to Rishi

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

The country is not being governed and Labour say there won't be a Prime Minister till September.

Keir Starmer is off on a farewell tour and Andy Burnham wants a summer holiday. Neither is thinking about our national security.

We need to cut welfare and fund our military.

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@PolitlcsUK No - in 16 years. Cameron was PM from 2010. Still not great but 10 years is an exaggeration

[MaximoffMcD @MaximoffMcD]

@JAHeale Nonsense. Kemi did the damage. Without her the by election would never have happened. Then Burnham finished him off

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Hiking national insurance
The Family Farm Tax
Giving up on real welfare reform
Not funding our defence
Not drilling our own oil and gas
Appointing Peter Mandelson…then lying about what had happened

Britain is not ungovernable. Keir Starmer is a terrible Prime Minister. But the problem isn’t just Starmer.

Labour MPs only want higher taxes to hand out more benefits, as the Welfare Secretary has pointed out. These are Labour’s choices and their values, regardless of who is running the party.

We need to get Britain working again. We need the @Conservatives.
