Monday, June 22, 2026 - Leader of the Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch, has launched a scathing attack on outgoing British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, describing him as a "terrible Prime Minister."
Badenoch made the remarks on Monday, June 22, following
Starmer's resignation after months of mounting pressure from within the Labour
Party and poor electoral performances.
In a statement shared on her social media platform, Badenoch
accused Starmer's administration of pursuing policies she believes have
weakened Britain's economy, welfare system and energy security.
She cited increases in national insurance contributions, the
introduction of the Family Farm Tax, , and the government's reluctance to
expand domestic oil and gas production.
Badenoch also criticised Starmer's appointment of Peter
Mandelson, alleging that the government was not transparent about the
circumstances surrounding the decision.
She wrote:
Hiking
national insurance
The Family
Farm Tax
Giving up on
real welfare reform
Not funding
our defence
Not drilling
our own oil and gas
Appointing
Peter Mandelson…then lying about what had happened
Britain is
not ungovernable. Keir Starmer is a terrible Prime Minister. But the problem
isn’t just Starmer.
Labour MPs
only want higher taxes to hand out more benefits, as the Welfare Secretary has
pointed out. These are Labour’s choices and their values, regardless of who is
running the party.
We need to
get Britain working again. We need the@Conservatives
