REMINDER FOR NON-BRITS

REMINDER FOR NON-BRITS:

Kemi Badenoch, the new leader of the Consertive party, is a woman of colour.

But she's also:
— a climate change denialist
— denies institutional racism exists
— a militant transphobe who wants to strip transgender people of civil rights
— believes the British Empire was beneficial to its colonies
— opposes marriage equality

... She's the most right-wing leader the party's ever had.

(TLDR: She's the antithesis of Kamala Harris.)

Kemi Badenoch elected new Conservative leader – as it happened

Badenoch says Tories need ‘a clear plan to change this country by changing the way that government works’
