“She often has these incredible spats. She likes a fight. I'm not sure she thinks about what is going to happen in two weeks time.”
Kemi Badenoch shows she can be quite “scrappy” as the “spat” between herself and Suella Braverman for the Conservative leadership “escalates”, says assistant editor at the Spectator Isabel Hardman.

These two women deserve each other. As for which should be leader, I'm sure Badenoch will edge it and then get into a series of frantic rows with her colleagues, blaming everyone but herself for the mess. She will then be challenged inside a year. Braverman will defect to the Reform rabble, and get into rows with Farage and Tice.

@grahamtrave1709 20 күн бұрын

Both Badenoch and Braverman display behaviours symptomatic of unresolved childhood trauma. They are highly reactive and incapable of weighing up what the furtre outcomes could be of their actions made today, they are simply not programmed like that. Its crazy that either of them could consider that they have the experience or necessary tools to lead the Tories, but then again perhaps they will succeed and this will result in the further demise of the now decimated and irrelevant Conservative party.

If find it difficult to describe either of them as Politicians. They're like two middle ranking managers in retail, vying for the area managers job. But it's fun to watch them ripping at each other. And my guess is that Reform are going to become more significant in the next couple of years, than these two rather mediocre politicians.
