Kemi Badenoch BLASTS ‘Spineless’ Keir Starmer for Bowing to the Mob During BLM Riots!
Kemi Badenoch, a leader in the Conservative Party, criticized Keir Starmer, the Labour Party leader, for kneeling during the Black Lives Matter protests in 2020. She called his actions cowardly, saying he gave in to pressure from the crowd. Badenoch made these comments during a speech at a conference in East London attended by conservatives, right-wing populists, and Christians.
In her speech, she talked about the challenges facing Western countries and what conservatives need to do to succeed. She accused Starmer of responding to a problem that didn’t exist in the UK and said he was influenced by the protests. She also defended the UK, saying it’s not a racist country and doesn’t need to apologize or pay reparations for past actions.
Badenoch also took a subtle jab at Nigel Farage, a prominent right-wing figure, warning people not to be swayed by strong words without real plans. She compared the Conservatives to Donald Trump, saying they need time to fix problems. She even compared the current challenges to those faced by the Roman Empire before its fall.
She promised that if the Conservatives make the right choices, they could lead the country into a new era of opportunity. But she warned that failure could lead to the loss of their country and civilization.
Badenoch has been struggling to gain traction in the polls, with the Conservatives often in third place. Despite speaking at a conservative conference, she defended liberal values, especially in light of polls showing young people losing faith in democracy. She warned against wishing for a “strong man” leader, drawing on her experience growing up in a military dictatorship.
She argued that liberal values are under threat from both the left and the right. While the left wants to undermine Western values, she said the right has lost confidence in defending them. Badenoch hinted at future policies, including increased defense spending and stricter rules on welfare benefits.
She emphasized the importance of spending more on defense, saying failing to do so would weaken the country. She also criticized people relying on welfare, saying it’s not the state’s responsibility to support those who don’t want to work.
The speech was aimed at winning over voters, as polls suggest Nigel Farage is gaining more attention. Badenoch is trying to position the Conservatives as the party that can protect the country’s values and future.
