Badenoch could, and probably should, have faced up to 5 years in prison for Computer Hacking had Harriet Harmon not accepted an apology.

I thought we didn’t allow convicted felons from other countries to enter the UK.

day156324.bsky.social•86 days ago

Yep, what happened to protection of our borders? How come it doesn't apply to Trump & his band of state department degenerates most of whom are felons, sex pests or druggies

implausibleblog.bsky.social•86 days ago

People with convictions can come to the UK

Though anyone who poses a danger to society, our security/border authorities might object to, with or without convictions

In fairness Trump does not pose that kind of danger so he is free to visit

foomy.bsky.social•86 days ago

I mean I consider him to pose a danger to society.

She broke the law. She admitted what she’d done.No conviction but the law was still broken.And no, we do not want Trump here. Nor Vance or Musk or any of his cabinet. Certainly don’t want them to address parliament.They have nothing to say that is good, truthful, intelligent or helpful.

sportsj.bsky.social•87 days ago

She's a puppet

ronague.bsky.social•87 days ago

Don’t forget hacking of Harriet Harman’s phone, penalty should she have chosen to bring charges, 5 years in prison …..

kaarinajaakkola.bsky.social•87 days ago

Perfectly innocent question:
Is she Trans?

brian-corney.bsky.social•86 days ago

But remember Kemi is never wrong. She told us so

cllrandyoddy.bsky.social•87 days ago

Haigh was given a conditional discharge. That’s not a conviction.

c4r0l3.bsky.social•87 days ago

Also Kemi Badenough is bl00dy lucky she wasn't convicted for hacking into Harriett Harmon's computer! But she conveniently forgets that.

keithmwood1966.bsky.social•86 days ago

And Rishi with his conviction not so long and with her record of hacking which if prosecuted could find her in jail

lushattic.bsky.social•87 days ago

Says the person who admitted hacking an opponents computer and should by rights be in jail.

jackmoxley.bsky.social•86 days ago

She has about as much integrity as an anarchist's attempt at a Brownian motion demonstration.

janeharbison.bsky.social•87 days ago

She escaped conviction because the person she hacked did not pursue it

connolly-lg.bsky.social•87 days ago

I was about to say that but on checking, it's more complex, more around the statute of limitations for the offence at the time it was committed.

What is true is that Harman graciously accepted her apology rather than making capital of it. She should learn from that.

daviduknorthwest.bsky.social•86 days ago

She doesn’t keep her receipts when everyone else does. Whilst the delivery has improved, couldn’t get any worse. The content is appallingly bad, has if Starmer’s people wrote it for him.

gryffgroff.bsky.social•86 days ago

Criminals like a close-knit community and all that…

thealexm.bsky.social•86 days ago

What the hell has he got to say that anyone would be interested in? They're eating the cats or some other dementia fueled garbage.

paulinbolton.bsky.social•86 days ago

She was lucky she wasn't reminded about her own past computer hacking.

alexverycalm.bsky.social•86 days ago

The Tories list of leaders
One was constantly a liar
One was constantly mad
One was constantly incompetent

At least she is inconsistent about everything.

lizb9.bsky.social•86 days ago

Also didn’t she only avoid prosecution for hacking another MP’s website by the skin of her teeth & the kindness of that MP. People in glass houses etc….

leejones.bsky.social•86 days ago

It's the irony of the conservatives record in government. (Not least Badernoch herself). They can't criticise or hold Labour (or any other political party) to account on anything when their own record and actions were so unbelievably dire when they were in power.

horseshoepartyuk.bsky.social•87 days ago

chattyman.bsky.social•86 days ago

Does 'Kemikaze' have any toes left...? 😂🤭

connolly-lg.bsky.social•87 days ago

Surely the only answer needed here is to point out that Badenoch is lucky that she wasn't prosecuted for hacking into Harriet Harman's website despite admiting it.

Those who live in glass houses, etc.

misterphamilton.bsky.social•87 days ago

Indeed, we should be prosecuting some of our own for corruption too!

geoff63.bsky.social•86 days ago

Certain people from the print and broadcasting world couldn't understand why she was not celebrated in becoming the first Black woman to lead a major political party in Britain.
Remember not all skinfolk are our kinfolk!!

amosparr.bsky.social•86 days ago

That's an old Gilbert & Sullivan joke. The Gondoliers (1889).

stumblinandy.bsky.social•87 days ago

Am I alone in thinking the term "Gobshite" is becoming increasingly universally applicable?

barnat4.bsky.social•86 days ago

Absolutely 💯

echinatum.bsky.social•86 days ago

Like the USA needs convict politicians?

peteknight.bsky.social•87 days ago

Isn't this the MP who not only escaped conviction for hacking a political opponents computer or website but amazingly escaped prosecution!

hennike.bsky.social•87 days ago

The same Kemi Badenoch that committed offences under the Computer Act 1990 for hacking into a Labour Party computer?

auntygoya.bsky.social•87 days ago

This shouldn't even be raised in a decent Parliament. He's a Convicted Felon.

pauldennis.bsky.social•86 days ago

Jeez she is sooooo bad !!

chudlt.bsky.social•86 days ago

She will be gone soon.

janinlincoln.bsky.social•86 days ago

🙄🤦‍♀️

lesleyak.bsky.social•87 days ago

It is a real shame Harriet Harman did not call the police on Kemi, when she hacked her computer.

pudner.bsky.social•86 days ago

Badenoch can try her damndest to undermine and disparage the Labour government but she nor her posse of twatwaffles and inept dimwits of self-serving cons will never be able to hold a candle to the talent, the competence and the integrity of this government.

barnat4.bsky.social•86 days ago

She's really bad at this politics thingy 😒

pudner.bsky.social•86 days ago

Self-serving cons and RefUKkers generally are 🤷

barnat4.bsky.social•86 days ago

How do others supposedly switched on people, not call out her BS 🤔

badhorse.com•86 days ago

Just because the Tories are shitter doesn't mean this government isn't shit.

pudner.bsky.social•86 days ago

That's your opinion . I disagree.

timbleman.bsky.social•54 days ago

Every week she becomes more meaningless

nigelwal.bsky.social•86 days ago

Not to mention Badenoch hacking Harriet Harman website and being reported to Action Fraud

mindfulmusings.bsky.social•87 days ago

To be fair no one in the House of Commons should stand up and make such a declaration.

But sas Kemi seriously forgot about Imran Ahmad Khan in 2022?

monk75.bsky.social•87 days ago

I can't speak for the rest of the country but NO NO NO way should trump even even be allowed into the UK, let alone speak in our parliament 😡

crow22.bsky.social•87 days ago

Ah the largess of these political types, day one thing one day and hope that no one notices when you say the opposite thing another day. They truly do speak with forked tongues 🤣

parkertron.bsky.social•87 days ago

Shattering discovery that Badenoch may have been wildly over-hyped.
