I firmly believe there is no point listening to/reading about 80% of political coverage in this country. It’s not analysis. It’s not worth your time. 👇🏻

Iain Dale was full of glowing praise and reckons she’d had a good year…🤯 Fast becoming the easiest job in the world to be a journalist who aligns themselves to the right; say what you like, never mind reality. Fiction writers galore.

“She’s had a good year” Iain Dale’s insightful analysis of Kemi’s performance.

Embarrassing isn’t it?! 🤮

Also, absolutely no coverage of the multiple contradictions within her speech. It’s honestly maddening. Parallel universe stuff!

I must have heard a different speech today by Kemi Badenoch because every LBC host after it thinks it was a good, powerful, speech full of political strategy. Either that or objective, non bias political analysis is dead in this country in stone cold dead. Embarrassing.

The “we will allow you to leave an extra £1M tax free to your family” How fucking clueless or out of touch do you have to be before you need a CT head?

Kemi Badenoch spent some of her speech explaining how much their party has changed because they are all new cabinet members and a new leader. Then said Labour can’t get a clean slate just because they have a new leader and new cabinet members. Genuinely one of the most painful speeches ever.

Nick Ferrari genuinely disgusts me. His @lbc.co.uk show hears from charities/callers that can't afford loo roll or toothbrushes and his response is to dismiss it and tell people to budget better. Disbelieving poverty when people in poverty are telling you it's real is a really evil thing.

A cynical person might ask, of course, why are "young men of fighting age" wearing hijabs? 🧐
Main on Sunday front page: 

"As one of Kemi's top female frontbenchers calls them 'instruments of suppression...
UK HANDS OUT 1,000 HIJABS TO CHANNEL MIGRANTS"

It saddens me that this is even being offered up as a debate. This is the state we are in. ASKING THIS, GIVES THIS RACIST CRAP LEGITIMACY The question from journos/presenters should be: “why don’t we call reform the BNP from now on?” Almost indistinguishable on policy and attitude.

That line about being “racist against myself” is key. It’s what her appointment is all about. Her ethnicity and skin colour is cover for saying and doing the most awful things. I might be very cynical but I’m sure that’s why.

“Only reform will let you keep your triple lock. We’ll also make sure you have to sell your house for your care when you are older and oh, we will also deport 90% of care workers, so good luck anyway!”

These people who wax lyrical over Thatcher’s policies and how great the 80’s was never include the important caveat of “for me and my mates in the south of England”

“Radically progressive” to stop and not give one section of society the very best of everything they want all the time…just because historically they are more likely to vote.

They are not “going after pensioners” and you repeating the line that is going to be used by the right wing rags and 90% of the UK media is a shame.

They said they wanted to inspire “hope” today - I would say mission accomplished atm! 🤞🏻

So, (early days and it could be still scary) but it looks like the UK press was so desperate for it to be Brown immigrants they just pumped it up loads and lost their minds. Trump didn’t want to be out of the limelight so lied about “intel” and Farage did both 🤣🤣🤣
