Badenoch says Tories ‘talked right but governed left’ at party leadership launch
Kemi Badenoch has said the Conservative government’s mistake was that it “talked right but governed left” as she launched her Tory leadership campaign in Westminster.
The shadow communities secretary, the bookmakers’ favourite to replace Rishi Sunak, said that “a government that tries to do everything will likely end up achieving nothing”.
Addressing a packed room at the Institution of Engineering and Technology, she said: “This was one of our mistakes.
“We talked right but governed left, sounding like Conservatives but acting like Labour.
“Government should do fewer things, but what it does, it should do with brilliance.”
She said that Labour are only in Government because people no longer believed in the Conservatives.
“The British people are yearning for something better, and this Labour Government is not it,” she said.
She said Labour are “trying to pull the wool over the eyes of the public” about the state of the UK’s finances.
“They are already making worse mistakes than we did,” she said.
