Kemi is going for hard truths that her party might not like.

This could be fun...

Absolutely no chance her hard truths are hard for the core Tory vote. It'll be stuff like how the problem with the welfare system is all the claims people under the age of 65 put on it.

"Hard truths"?

'CPTPP would add just 0.04% to GDP in the “long run”, which it defines as after 15 years.'

'UK/Australia/ NZ trade agreements “might increase GDP by a combined 0.1% by 2035”.'

'UK economy will be 4% smaller than if we had stayed in the EU.'

Obviously the “hard” bit is trying to make whatever she says sound anything at all like a “truth”.

How about the truth that Kemi Badenoch is a shit leader of the opposition? Or is that to be ignored until 2026?

oraclekate.bsky.social•99 days ago

... previous Tory governments...

darrenguy.bsky.social•99 days ago

The last time I looked, she was carrying on with all the sane things

You know the 24 hour culture wars

lostinalostworld.bsky.social•99 days ago

She spelt bad wrong

samraby.bsky.social•99 days ago

What a selfless present. I can't wait.

jonloveridge.bsky.social•99 days ago

Some hard truths might be more true than others

bingohandjob.bsky.social•99 days ago

'Previous governments'. Still can't admit it was them. The fake humility is so transparent.

paulobro.bsky.social•99 days ago

Previous governments?? The one she was in??

willandrews01.bsky.social•99 days ago

They won't be hard truths for her base. It'll be stuff that supposedly riles up Tory party moderates who left the party in 2019.

Mistake? Shurely shome mishtake?

mattfrostie.bsky.social•99 days ago

It’s a lucky she’s known for her calm diplomatic manner otherwise things could get nasty.

cathomer.bsky.social•98 days ago

Not being able to structure a short social media post is not a good look, and in addition to reinforcing her inexperience, also shows she pays little attention to detail.

"Hard truths for the country" - that really doesn't sound very vote winning!

joseph-yossarian.bsky.social•99 days ago

First truth is that Reform now has more members than the Tories.

ianm-hull.bsky.social•99 days ago

Guaranteed to come to the wrong conclusion

kamadodavid.bsky.social•99 days ago

She thinks the mistake was not going full-on National Front.

pamnashes.bsky.social•99 days ago

She does know that previous Governments were her party, yes?
And that, all things being equal, the next GE is nearly 5 yrs away?

ianmarlowsculptor.bsky.social•99 days ago

Oooh...Is she going to nationalise the utilities like we need?...provide free education for all?...provide £350m a week for the NHS ?.... rejoin the EU ????? No ???.... Bugger !!!

We need to do things differently says woman who, while in government, ordered an investigation into entirely non-existent cat pupils because of something she saw on the Internet.

parkertron.bsky.social•99 days ago

Will any of these hard truths involve Badenoch taking a look at herself and concluding that some of the blithering nonsense she wrote in the Telegraph about toilets and woke archeology was unlikely to find favour among people unable to find a dentist?

parkertron.bsky.social•99 days ago

"We are in opposition because previous governments made mistake. We HAVE to do things differently."

Proof-checking for a start.

bust3d00.bsky.social•99 days ago

She is never wrong

upuptothesky.bsky.social•99 days ago

Soooo...you're just going to assume she knows how to structure a sentence and when to use the plural form?
