Congratulations to Kemi Badenoch who is now the leader of the Conservative party.
Apparently she thinks the party has veered towards the political centre by “governing from the left” and must return to its traditional ideas.
Which I would describe as an absolutely batty opinion counter to observable facts about Brexit and Culture-war battles and the corruption and scandal that actually drove the party from power.
So sounds like she'll be working hard to make the party more irrelevant and drive away any voters who aren't rabid hate-filled crazy people.
Good times for the other parties I guess.
Expect they'll change leader again before the next election though.
