Would Kemi Badenoch make a good PM?

I was just wondering if Kemi Badenoch would be a good Prime Minister if she wins the next general election?

Better than Starmer and better than Reform.

Personally, I know almost nothing about her so have no way of guessing what she'd be like as a prime minister.

At the rate the Conservatives have been going through leaders over the last few years, there's every likelihood that she won't be in post by the time the Conservatives next win anyway.

Gazpacho.

Badenoch demanded an Ofsted inspection after she fell for obviously fake news story that a pupil was identifying as a cat.

That is the sort of deranged culture wars fanaticism that goes down well in modern conservative circles but does not make one suitable to be PM.

Lol no. She's come after women/families with her remarks against maternity pay, she's come after autistic children because apparently they have it too good, she's come after trans people but that's to be expected I suppose... It just makes me wonder if anyone is safe from this woman? Will I be next on her naughty list? It seems like voting for her carries with it a substantial risk she might just wake up one morning and decide that she hates you.

Nah, as @Captain Haddock basically says above, she's just a bit too openly nasty, not really capable of showing any humility over her actions or the wider parties.

So much for thinking about what they did wrong last time.

No. None of the tories would.

She needs to decide what she stands for. I don't think vilifying mothers for taking maternity pay is a good place to start. Similarly, she needs to develop a bit of personality. She is very wooden. And if she takes the Tories to the right to fight against Reform, she will consign the Tories to a death march. It would be interesting to see how small 'c' conservatism (the majority of conservatives) would be served in this country.
