Bridget Phillipson: “Kemi Badenoch is the latest in a long line of failed Tory leaders who are determined to see workers made worse off.”

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.

I think we are seeing a weaponisation of violence against women and girls by parts of the right that I don't believe will challenge the attitudes that we're seeing, or will lead to women feeling safer – and that is my focus.

The way that the Tories and Reform have approached this issue is all too often about political point-scoring. They’re not serious about taking the action that’s needed to protect women.

It is shameful to vote against a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine and to condemn the vast majority of British Jews and Jews around the world as racist for supporting Israel’s right to exist.
