Reform UK has wasted no time launching a furious attack against new Conservative Party Leader Kemi Badenoch, claiming she has overseen a “full record of failure”.

From her time on the backbenches to her time in Government supporting various leaders, Nigel Farage’s party has issued a scathing response to the new Tory leader winning the race.

It claimed in a press release: Reform UK are today shining a spotlight on the new Conservative Party Leader, Kemi Badenoch’s full record of failure, from her time on the backbenches supporting Mrs May’s disastrous Brexit deal which would have committed us to the ECHR to her time in Government proudly supporting leader after leader that imposed mass immigration on the United Kingdom.

“She has failed at every turn and now in true Tory fashion, she is being rewarded for this failure.”

Reform UK hit out at the new Conservative Party Leader, outlining what they see as her previous eight “failures”.

The party firstly criticised Ms Badenoch for abandoning the sunset clause within the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill – which no longer guaranteed that every aspect of remaining EU law would be scrapped by the end of 2023.

Secondly, Reform claims she missed a manifesto pledge to strike deals with countries that account for 80% of UK trade by the end of 2022.

On 24th May 2021, Kemi Badenoch voted for a range of tax and pensions provisions, including keeping key income tax rates and thresholds unchanged and increasing the main rate of Corporation Tax from 19 to 25% from 2023, which the party has condemned.

Fourthly, Reform UK hit out at the new Tory leader for voting three times for Theresa May’s EU Withdrawal Treaty which committed Britain to staying in the European Court of Human Rights, adding how she also fully supported Rishi Sunak’s Windsor Framework which placed a border down the Irish Sea, split the union and ensured EU laws still apply.

Next, they claim she said we can’t bankrupt ourselves getting to net zero which is stopping the bonfire of EU laws – yet she voted for the “most significant energy legislation for a decade and a world-first in giving us a legal mandate targeting net zero.”

Reform UK continued, explaining how she said we “need to fix” civil service obstruction after the Tavistock scandal, however, she blamed the behaviour of unnamed Whitehall officials for her failure to scrap EU laws.

Finally, the party accused the new Tory Lead of talking tough on immigration to further her career when in reality in 2018 she thanked the then Home Secretary “for removing the annual limits on work visas, and also on international students: both of which I lobbied for.”

Reform UK Deputy Leader, Richard Tice said: “Kemi Badenoch is another in a long line of Tory politicians who say one thing and do another.

“Kemi Badenoch was front and centre of a Government that failed Britain. She said nothing while Rishi Sunak hit hard-working people with record immigration, the small boats crisis, the highest taxes for seventy years, record NHS waiting lists and sky-high crime.

“Instead of standing up for Britain whilst in Government, she stood up for her own career prospects and chauffeur driven cars.

“She has failed the British public before and she will fail them again as leader of the Conservative Party.”
