REMINDER FOR NON-BRITS:

Kemi Badenoch—the new leader of the Conservative party—is a woman of colour.

But she's also:
— a climate change denialist
— denies institutional racism exists
— a militant transphobe who wants to strip transgender people of civil rights
— believes the British Empire was beneficial to its colonies
— opposes marriage equality
— Prejudiced against autism

... She's the most right-wing leader the party's ever had.

(She's the anti-Kamala Harris.)

the Guardian · Kemi Badenoch elected new Conservative leader – as it happenedBadenoch says Tories need ‘a clear plan to change this country by changing the way that government works’

@cstross Badenoch. For every voter who thinks Margaret Thatcher was too kind, too gentle, too wishy-washy.

@cstross

Badenoch is bad enough to keep the Tories out of power for the foreseeable future. (I think this is a great choice.)
