As the political landscape in Britain rightly fixates on Two-Tier-Keir and his authoritarianism, it’s important not to let the Tories worm their way back into the public’s favour.
Let us not forget that the previous Tory government oversaw record-breaking immigration numbers while claiming to be the party of sensible immigration policy.
Let us not forget their disastrous handling of all things COVID-related, not least their economy-crippling lockdowns, from which businesses have yet to recover.
Let us not forget their fumbling “green” policies, which largely consisted of ruining greenbelt land for solar farms and housing developments, cementing (sometimes quite literally) Britain’s status as one of Europe’s most nature-depleted nations.
A complete rundown of their mismanagement of the country would far exceed the parameters of a short article such as this, but you get the point.
Kemi Badenoch, one of the Tory leadership candidates, is banking on the electorate’s short memories, which, sadly, has often proven to be the case.
After being smashed in the recent general election and having their status as the prominent “conservative” party threatened by Reform, they’re seeking to take advantage of Labour’s tenuous relationship with the British voter, and Ms Badenoch is leading the charge.
She said that to win back the public’s trust, the Tories “can’t just sit around pointing out how terrible Labour are” and “having the same policy arguments as the last Parliament.”
She blamed July’s historic election defeat on the public’s ignorance of the Tories’ values and their delivery of ” managerialism politics ” that “weren’t rooted in principles.”
However, we would beg to differ with her on this point. We would argue that the average British voter was well aware of what the Tories stood for, namely uncontrolled immigration and fleecing the taxpayer to accommodate it.
“We talked right but governed left, sounding like Conservatives but acting like Labour,” she continued.
Now, on this, we can certainly agree. In fact, Ms Badenoch has effectively let the cat out of the bag, inadvertently admitting that the Tories and Labour are two birds of the same feather. Both are hard-left parties, but whereas Labour brazenly wear their destructive policies on their sleeve, the Tories have the sense to be more discrete. But whatever rhetoric they use to woo the voter base, it comes down to the same thing: prioritisation of protected classes whilst dragging the average Brit through the dirt.
So, in true Tory fashion, Ms Badenoch talks tough on immigration. People “should not be made to feel guilty” for questioning the number of people coming into the country “if it is changing the place they know and love,” she asserts.
Dig a little deeper, however, and cracks start to appear in her promises. Chiefly, she is opposed to the UK leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), something which her party has previously used as an excuse not to deport asylum seekers and deter illegal migration. She also rejects calls for a cap on immigration.
Meanwhile, other candidates have also thrown their hat into the ring.
Shadow home secretary James Cleverly launched his leadership campaign, calling for a “family-first society” rather than reliance on the state. We remind everyone that in the 14 years the Tories had at their disposal, no policies or laws pushed for such a society, nor will any in the future should they miraculously get into power again.
Shadow security minister Mr Tugendhat recently launched his campaign, with other leadership rivals Mr Jenrick, Dame Priti Patel and Mel Stride making speeches and pitches in the media in recent days. Our advice? Take no heed of whatever lies come out of their mouths.
Both Labour and the Conservative Party, who might as well be a uni-party at this point, share one common goal: to advance the globalist agenda at all costs no matter how damaging it is to the British people.
Going forward, we implore the electorate not to forgive and forget the last 14 years. Real change requires a change in voting habits.
