regarding concerns over 'reparations to the enslaved colonies of the Commonwealth'..how about we start by not underpaying them for the commodities they supply, such as - sugar, rice and cocoa, things that we're happy to say 'yes, thanks, more please' but are less willing to look into how we get them or how we treat those who produce them?...

[@lcfcsince2016]

I don't regret my leadership vote for Kemi Badenoch, her competence and ability to put the facts as they are motivated my reason to do so. Good luck, Kemi

[@debbiebedford]

If she gets to be leader then Farage may be in trouble. I voted for reform, but I am pretty disappointed that Farage has disparaged TR and has not used his platform to defend Starmers’ political prisoners, even after a grandfather lost his life in Prison. A harsh sentence for a non violent crime, his silence is deafening.

[@mjones4083]

I agree .

[@sgb6476]

Yes! Spot on, Farage is not the man, he repeats himself too much and avoids things that matter to us. Kemi’s answers are detailed and determined- she seems genuine

[@dbanksey216]

Yet, when he did speak out he was threatened with arrest. The establishment want him out, its why he has to pick his battles and words very carefully.

[@sgb6476]

@@dbanksey216 hmmm, not so sure about Farage, there wa absolutely no need to bring up Tommy and throw him under the bus, Farage is an MP now and can’t just be chucked out, he’s changed

[@dbanksey216]

@@sgb6476 The alternative is trusting this women who is backed by Michael Gove. The trouble is, like Boris, they were use her as a figurehead to get re-elected, then back stab her out and everything she promises will be reset. Anyone who thinks that the person they are voting for now, will be leading the party after they win, will be disillusioned. After Boris was booted, did the Conservative achieve anything? Which is my point.

A pity the politicians reacted and against the police !! B4 the facts emerged !! Not sure about her rhetoric..wasn’t she vouching for open borders when it was popular to do so ?! WHY can Poland and Hungary can and do refuse to have illegal immigration?

I like this woman as a leader. Quite succinct in her expression. Clear with her views and ideas. Not deluded at all. You have my vote!

[@YMC1955]

I am decided now. Its Kemi 100% I would most definitely vote Conservative if she was in charge.

Finally we have a serious, intelligent politician that sees through the nonsense of our age and stands up to it. Impressive woman who must become leader if the tories are to have a future in British politics.

I will vote Conservative too if they pick her.

[@MS-bm8bu]

[@jillgilson3900]

Last time I voted conservative it was Margaret Thatcher, after listening to Kemi's answers, I really like what she has to say. I am however considering to vote Reform at the next election but if she wins the leadership race I'm going to watch and listen to her carefully.if she does what she says she wants to do I may change my vote, but they must no longer make promises only to break them again.
