Kemi Badenoch is a British Tory politician who was elected Leader of the Conservative Party and became Leader of the Opposition on 2 November 2024.[1] Badenoch was formerly a Cabinet Minister in the Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak administrations from 2022 to 2024.[2]
She is the Member of Parliament (MP) for North West Essex since 2024, and previously represented Saffron Walden from 2017 to 2024.[3]
Background
Badenoch was born in a private Catholic maternity hospital in Wimbledon, and grew up in Nigeria for 16 years where her father was a GP and her mother a lecturer in physiology.[4]
Political career
She entered Parliament in 2017 in the safe Tory seat of Saffron Walden.[4]
Michael Gove and his friend Dougie Smith, the shadowy Tory fixer, soon identified Badenoch as a future party leader, and encouraged her to adopt anti-woke beliefs to pander to the beliefs of other Conservative members.[4]
"Kemi Badenoch is more committed to decarbonisation than media reports suggest."[5]
She was described by Nadine Dorries as an "evil plotter".[6]
Covid
She voted yes to the introduction of vaccine passports in 2021, which would have regulated all parts of society based on an always updated jab status.
In January 2022, she wrote that "The Covid vaccine is safe for pregnant women and their babies", with "not a single legitimate concern about their safety...Why the lingering vaccine hesitancy? Much of the blame lies at the door of private messaging apps like WhatsApp and Telegram...But the science is now crystal clear—the vaccine is safe for pregnant women...The Government is doing its bit to tackle these harmful narratives."[8]
In November 2023, Badenoch told the COVID-19/Public Inquiry that she was "very, very concerned" about the spread of anti-vaccine misinformation in the UK and "that conspiracy theories are still rife in the wake of the pandemic and the Government has not got a handle on the situation."[9]
