[@josephineharper-paul9237]

This woman is a leader. She knows how to listen and answer the questions ask. I would vote for this woman without a doubt

[@Foster-rv6ty]

Me too, she's quite straightforward with a strong conviction. I'll be voting for her. Labour will implode before Christmas.

She will make absolute mincemeat of Starmer, thank the lord! Some opposition at last! This is going to be sweet !

[@tha_watchman]

She's million times better than rishi, may, and the others from what I see.

[@MarciaWilson-hq9ii]

[@mrlij6534]

So Kemi has common sense. well the UK is lucky to have her. we need to get rid of this anti-common sense virus going around.

[@IzabellaMeehan]

What’s a refreshing politician🎉 Can’t wait for her leadership in the UK. Thank God we have a chance to get our country back🙏🏻

[@volnadr]

She is such a complete leader! Very knowledgable, educated and inspires confidence. I’m a hardcore conservative but if we can remove the prejudices about one’s colour of skin or background and focus on actual pragmatism, we may once vote for someone who can actually steer this country in the right direction once for all!

Excellent choice. First time I heard this lady speak I said she should be leader. I believe what she says. Which is incredibly refreshing x

[@RebeccaLove-g5y]

She is supper intelligent and interestingly interesting

[@tayoadeola373]

THIS IS THE OPPOSITE OF KAMALA. SHE WOOED ME OVER.

[@shippys2043]

Woohoo!

[@shippys2043]

No resemblance. She doesn't sound like a communist to me.

[@hen-vladnortey4380]

Hope she gets the support for who she really is and not for the sake of her colour. She is very smart and clever with how she answers difficult questions. I’m a Labour voter but she’s going to be hard to beat if she continues talking sense like this. Good luck 🎉

[@simonquantock4334]

She has won my vote 🎉

[@Lorraine-p4r]

Robert Jenrick won my vote.

[@johnday8867]

I'm so glad the party has elected Kemi Badenoch as opposition leader to confront Kier Starmer step by step.

[@chris5634C3PO]

Well she certainly has my attention, lets see what she does.

[@balasinghamindrakumar5980]

She is going to be grate Prime Minister with an Engineering back ground. The contribution from Engineering to a country is lot. Britain to progress , the government should invest in Agriculture,Industry, Education, Engineering and Technology.🙏

[@MarciaWilson-hq9ii]

A software engineer which enabled het to hack an mps website and admitted it

[@Bg-bc2sh]

This is my first time watching her and I actually like her ,never thought I would say that about a tory .

[@ExplorewithSarahlouise]

I’m only part way through but she’s very right about Lammy what an embarrassment. I feel mortifyingly embarrassed at him being in the role he’s in after what he said about Trump.

[@MargaretClish]

She has some good ideas and speaks in english. She also brakes down everythin and great understanding of the struggles ordinary people have. Good for you keep challenging and hopefully you will be a good PM.

[@commscompany1502]

Speaks in English ???? Wow what was the point of this comment?

[@opollitico]

I do not know all her policies, like she said, at this stage - it is about establishing character and values for the Conservative Party, and it is probably madness for me to say (I have never voted conservative) but I would probably vote for her

Have watched your interview's over the time, haven't found flaws in any, you disect and analysis issues critically to the layman's understanding, you are such an eloquent orator, even though uk is not a patriach, society you have refused to be intimidated by gener and color segregation, we love kemi and conservative party, keep doing your thang the sky is your beginning

[@Thedude59]

her Trans views are a breath of fresh air for a politician. She sounds sane and sensible. Still voting Reform until I see something tangible.

[@shippys2043]

We are starved for someone in a position of power to say something honest. Hard not to love it.

[@cupra2Jock.]

​@gazw9595 facts. Nothing new here, she is good with words, let's see if she lasts 5 years.

[@three3thou]

This is leadership... The fact that British conservatives don't see this is actually the chief symptom how regressed the British political system has become.... This is leadership. Conservative leadership. She is astute, wise and practical.

[@ianinkster2261]

The MPs are still lamenting Cleverly. Airheads.

[@edsiebert5986]

she's vile and a fascist, please get rid of black thatcher

[@thomaskelly9488]

YES WE SHOULD BE LAMMENTING CLEVERLY ANOTHER TORY WRONG DECISION AND SO IT GOES ON

[@northernwhatshapping6724]

I used to be a Conservative voter now reform and I like the way she speaks about Britain and being one nation of people regardless of the small differences. But let's see how it goes only time will tell if she can win my vote but she is off to a good start

[@jasfan8247]

There is a major problem if there is no strong male-figure that can lead the Tory-party. She's quite fair-headed but there are red-flags. As a feminist she will compromise with all the wrong people just to play the "strong women" idea. She's bossing her husband into doing the mother-part.....

[@sweetattitudeTV]

Here after her Election, I love her delivery, I hope she keeps based & common sensed. The left need a strong opposition, it keeps balance both sides. I'm no longer left & never been right but we'll see..

[@constantinvaldor3742]

If now after everything you choose right you were never left. UK is changing even if there was no more immigration. The immigration thing is over. It's way too late if that's what's leading you right. Things change.

[@AfroGirlFitness]

Would vote for her as PM in a heartbeat. She's clear, visionary and highly competent.

[@globalimpact6057]

Kemi deserves to be the next Prime Minister. She is a real conservative.

[@Lorraine-p4r]

Robert Jenrick is better

[@lollynone1108]

Being American, I cant vote for her, but I really like her. Bright, well spoken, concise, no nonsense, strong, caring for unity and positive. This seems like what leadership should be. If we get enough good leaders around the world, our world will change to the better. Hope she runs for PM!

[@Snitzelvonkrumm]

Gotta admit I don’t follow British politics enthusiastically, but, when I saw the Tori’s had a new leader I was initially concerned that it might have been a pick based on sex or skin colour…. however after watching this I’m quite impressed and very hopeful for her going forward, I hope she sticks to her conservative values and doesn’t let politics or the career politicians distract or divert her from the much needed role that a conservative leader will need to play in coming years, the country is up shyt creek presently and with 5yrs of Starmer to come the country will be close to unrecognisable and as close to the brink as Britain can afford to let it go

What happened towards the end of the interview Independent? You focussed solely on the interviewer and not on Kemi and her voice was so echoey it could barely be understood! Did she visit the bathroom and you just carried on anyway?

I've been watching a lot of American politics, it's so refreshing to watch a politician who can sit for 30 minutes and answer question after question without prompt cards etc... I like her style, we'll see how she goes in the next 4 years. Generally I don't vote as I was not interested in voting for Boris or Rishi, and after Blair I wouldn't never vote Labour again. This lady might get my vote.
