Kemi Badenoch’s spokesman refused to condemn proposals by Donald Trump to “take over” Gaza and expel its citizens to other countries in the region, saying that the Conservative party leader wanted to “see more details of what is being proposed”.
In a briefing with journalists, Badenoch’s spokesman refused repeated requests to distance the party from the President’s suggestion that the US would take a “long-term ownership position” of Gaza, after which Palestinians would have “no alternative” but to leave the country.
Pushed by Byline Times to reiterate the Conservative party’s longstanding support for a two-state solution in the Middle East, Badenoch’s spokesman refused, saying “I’m not going to get into that now”.
He also declined the opportunity to repeat UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s insistence that Palestinians “must be allowed home” to Gaza, saying that “I’m not going to get into the geopolitics of Israel”.
A spokesman??
What the hell is she doing that’s so important someone else has to give her views to the press?
The entire job of opposition leader is to be seen and heard cos you’re not doing jack that matters. I suppose I should be happy the Tory party is still so utterly useless but Christ a bit of competence in UK politics would help us all
Well… lucky for Trump, he doesn’t give a fuck what she thinks.
Well no one does because she’s irrelevant. As long as she’s leader of the conservative party the conservative party will never be in power, so she’s basically a self solving problem.
An absolute ballon, but also one week can ignore
