He was born in 1980 in the Wimbledon neighborhood, grew up in Nigeria, studied Computer Engineering, admires Margaret Thatcher and has a low opinion of subsidies.
Is called Kemi Badenoch and she is the first black woman to chair a major party in the United Kingdom. He conservativeto be more exact. He came to office after a consultation with the militancy Laundry Room in which defeated Robert Jenricky replaces former Prime Minister Rishi Sunakwho resigned after the setback in the British general elections on July 4. Badenoch has three children and is married to a senior banking executive. She was already a minister and before that a deputy. Now he is launching into stardom with the challenge of reversing the adverse electoral cycle of the Conservatives, overwhelmed by the Labor Party.
Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke Badenoch is his full name. Thanks to heraldic curiosity and Google and not our linguistic expertise, we have learned that Adegoke means something like progress completedwhich leads us to think that the name is the destiny. At least in some cases. In other words, it may not always be that character is destiny. Or it was predestined.
Badenoch it very conservative even for many conservatives. hates it woke and fights him. Without complexes. Some see in it the faith of the convert and others the definitive modernization of a stale formation. that now has problems connecting with the middle and popular classes. The conservatives have disappeared from areas like Scotlandwhich must sting a lot, and they have a recent history of clumsy, fleeting and quickly burned leadership. Badenoch’s is the same party that one day trusted in the botarado of Boris Johnson, in the moderate John Major, in the hesitant Theresa May or in the unconscious of David Cameron, who organized the Brexit pifostio, that is, the referendum. Without forgetting Sunak, the first exotic appetizer that the conservative militancy wanted to try. A party that continues to have Thatcher on its altars, which is something like if the PSOE did not abhor Felipe González, although it is rather the PSOE that abhors Sánchez. A la Thatcher and Churchill, of course.
Badenoch has been nicknamed as the pretty girl of the british rightwhich makes us doubt the capacity and metaphorical ingenuity of conservatives. He cannot govern who does not take care of his metaphors. Paradoxically, it not only has to fight against the left, but also against the (more) ultras, against Nigel Farage’s party (Reform UK), already represented in Parliament. Badenoch and Farage often say similar things, the difference is that Badenoch says them calmly. Farage frequently thanks La Rioja for how much it has done for his happiness.
He became right-wing, Badenoch, because of the disgust he received from “those stupid left-wing white kids” with whom he interacted at the University and has gained the favor of the bases of a party, at least that’s what the stereotype goes, formed by mature men, gentlemen?, white. There is a parallel with Trump, who in theory should not have enjoyed the majority favor of women, blacks, Hispanics or the poor. And he has won.
The line that Badenoch imposes from now on in the formation that he begins to lead is a half unknown. We already know that hates trans peoplewhich he is not in the mood to understand the gay worldwhich doubt about climate change and? maternity pay seems excessive. He also does not have a very good opinion of the civil service. He has also come out with some statements that are not exactly a defense of public health.
The other day she said that she I wanted to be Labour’s worst nightmarea statement that reminded us of Ayuso’s proclamations for which everything beyond Christian democracy is hard communism. If you admit that there is soft communism. Badenoch and Ayuso would get along well, although they would disagree about whether London or Madrid is better. In both places public health encounters difficulties and in both places you may never meet your ex. When it comes to being the best place to drink beers, the Londoners beat us a little, size matters, since the pint is more popular there. Although you can always counterattack with the double or the jug. Now they also really like Guinness.
Guest 1: Can you introduce yourself, please? Tell us about your background and how you became involved in politics.
Guest 2: My name is Kemi Badenoch, and I was born in 1980 in the Wimbledon neighborhood of London. I am the first black woman to chair a major political party in the United Kingdom, the Conservative Party. I studied Computer Engineering at the University of Ilford and began my political career as a local councilor before being elected to Parliament in 2017.
Guest 1: That’s quite an accomplishment. Tell us about some of your main policies and goals as the new leader of the Conservative Party.
Guest 2: As a conservative, I am committed to reducing taxes, cutting government spending, and promoting individual responsibility. I am also very much against ‘woke’ culture and want to ensure that freedom of speech and expression are protected. Furthermore, I aim to address the challenge of climate change while balancing economic growth and environmental protection.
Guest 1: You’ve been vocal about your opposition to certain policies such as subsidies and support for trans rights. Can you expand on those opinions and how they align with your party’s platform?
Guest 2: I believe that subsidies can create dependencies and hinder economic growth. Regarding trans rights, I think we need to create a balance between protecting people’s identities and preserving traditional values. While I don’t agree with every aspect of the current trans rights debate, I believe we can find common ground that respects everyone’s voices.
Guest 1: You’ve mentioned your admiration for Margaret Thatcher. How do you think her legacy influences your political views and vision for the party?
Guest 2: Margaret Thatcher was a transformative figure in British politics, and her belief in personal responsibility, free markets, and small government greatly influence my political philosophy. I want to continue her legacy by modernizing the Conservative Party while maintaining its fundamental values.
Guest 1: You won the support of many Conservative Party members following the recent leadership change. What do you think won them over, and how do you plan to maintain that support?
Guest 2: I think my authenticity and commitment to conservative values resonated with party members who
