Kemi Badenoch has steadied the Conservative ship But the Tory brand remains stubbornly weak, and the battle with Reform for supremacy on the right remains unresolved It'd be premature to buy shares in Prime Minister Badenoch, writes @ipsosintheuk.bsky.social's @keiranpedley.bsky.social

Don't buy shares in Prime Minister Badenoch just yet

A year ago, the Conservative Party appeared trapped in a downward spiral, squeezed by Reform UK and facing questions about its long-term viability....

The Tories are effectively three parties now. Reform is the radical right. Restore are the right, but not as radical and The Tories don't know where to go. The Liberal Democrats have an opportunity of a lifetime to win big if they play their cards right.

Badenoch seems to have forgotten that it was a Conservative PM who enshrined the 2050 Net Zero target into law. Not a Labour PM, not the Lib Dems, not the Greens. A Tory. In contrast, all Badenoch’s doing now is shuffling the deckchairs about on the Titanic. Cowardice.

The Conservatives are still polling around ~20% on average. These are not good numbers. There’s also no evidence that Badenoch is holding up the Conservative numbers. They may simply be unrelated - which is different.

The 'Kemi Badenoch is a good leader, held back by the Conservative brand' is a take that immediately falls apart when you ask 'what was the Conservative party polling in September 2024, and what is it polling in September 2026?'

The Tory party has killed itself with Brexit. It’s lost its mind chasing Farage into the gutter, saying unserious things, promoting unserious people who stand around in suits, arms folded, talking utter dribble to get a headline. It’s pathetic. We deserve a better opposition. This lot are shite.

The Green Party's leadership needs to get an urgent grip on the party. Allowing the Corbynistas to flood the party unchecked has led to exactly the same antisemitism that took over Labour years and which took years to eradicate. So entirely predictable and yet also deeply sad.

The motion passed at Green Party Conf' actively undermines a 2-state solution, and does not address the rising threats of Islamophobia and Antisemitism here in the UK. This is a divisive motion that pours fuel on the fire of tensions in the UK, and will leave many British Jews feeling less safe.
