Starmer is a terrible Prime Minister – Kemi Badenoch reacts to UK PM’s resignation
Leader of the Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, has launched a scathing attack on outgoing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, describing him as a “terrible Prime Minister.”
Badenoch made the remarks on Monday, June 22, following Starmer’s resignation after months of mounting pressure from within the Labour Party and poor electoral performances.
In a statement shared on her social media platform, Badenoch accused Starmer’s administration of pursuing policies she believes have weakened Britain’s economy, welfare system and energy security.
She cited increases in national insurance contributions, the introduction of the Family Farm Tax, , and the government’s reluctance to expand domestic oil and gas production.
Badenoch also criticised Starmer’s appointment of Peter Mandelson, alleging that the government was not transparent about the circumstances surrounding the decision.
She wrote:
Hiking national insuranceThe Family Farm TaxGiving up on real welfare reformNot funding our defenceNot drilling our own oil and gasAppointing Peter Mandelson…then lying about what had happenedBritain is not ungovernable. Keir Starmer is a terrible Prime Minister. But the problem isn’t just Starmer.Labour MPs only want higher taxes to hand out more benefits, as the Welfare Secretary has pointed out. These are Labour’s choices and their values, regardless of who is running the party.We need to get Britain working again. We need the@Conservatives
