Take hotels, benefits, housing, free legal aid, free this free that away to stop the boats. We are too cushy a number.

We've heard all this rhetoric before. The ONLY way you'll ever get my confidence and vote again is if I see the Conservatives rebuild their party form the ground up and get rid of any left leaning or "moderate" MPs. Trumpian approach.

Tbh it's not even that. It's acknowledgement of failure in the past, then implementation from the top in office. Could start with tory councils reducing benefits for migrants and having a fight with Labour Gov on this issue.

Oh she's such an uninspiring speaker. No lift or bounce whatsoever. It comes to something when Chris Philp is the *better* speaker. I'm trying to listen to policy ideas, that for some reason weren't introduced when they actually were in power, but it's a hard slog to listen to.

Why did the Conservaties not articulate this strategy so clearly before the election? 🙈

[@siankumar8560]

Kemi wasn't leader. It's a new structure and new direction.
