Show Notes

Kemi Badenoch, the new Conservative Party leader, dismissed the idea of a coalition with Reform UK, despite a voters suggestion. She promoted the Tories plan to suspend VAT on energy bills for three years, blaming the energy crisis on the Middle East conflict. Badenoch criticized Reform UK for advocating bigger government and increased welfare spending, positioning the Conservatives as the genuine center-right choice. High-profile Conservatives like Robert Jenrick and Suella Braverman joined Reform, but Badenoch views it as a purge of troublemakers under her new leadership. The Conservatives are advocating for increased North Sea drilling to secure affordable energy, while Labours Ed Miliband argues that global markets dictate prices. Badenoch is betting on bold actions to regain voter support before the next elections.
