Kemi Badenoch's Tories held young people back and caused the welfare bill to spiral. To pretend she's suddenly on the side of young people is frankly insulting.
This isn’t an issue of party politics; it’s about doing what is right, and upholding the values anyone holding public office should share.
Kemi Badenoch is the latest in a long line of failed Tory leaders who are determined to see workers made worse off.
It’s clear that Farage and his party are determined to poison our politics and threaten the shared British values Labour will always proudly defend.
