Keir Starmer presented the US/UK trade deal as a jobs-saving triumph. Badenoch claims we were “shafted”. What's the real picture? Will car, beef and ethanol (?) exports to the US make a difference to our economy? Why are the people who demanded Brexit so furious that we've signed exactly the sort of deal Brexit was supposed to facilitate? And while we're here, what's the truth about the Indian trade deal and the National Insurance exemptions that so enrage the the Take Back Controllers?

Reform UK, el partido de Nigel Farage, es la nueva sensación en la política británica. Dos victorias electorales simultáneas, una en las elecciones locales y otra en la circunscripción de Runcorn y Helsby, que han arrebatado al Partido Laborista por sólo seis votos, ha provocado todo un terremoto político. Con esta victoria, Reform UK recupera los cuatro diputados en la Cámara de los Comunes, un número que no le hace justicia ya que en las elecciones del año pasado fue el tercer partido más votado, pero el sistema electoral británico, uninominal mayoritario, redujo al mínimo su representación. El mismo día de la victoria en Runcorn y Helsby, Reform UK logró un éxito notable en las elecciones locales con mayorías en varios consejos de condado y ayuntamientos. En Lincolnshire, un bastión conservador, Reform arrasó, mientras que en Durham y Staffordshire también tomó el control desplazando a laboristas y conservadores. En Lancashire, un condado políticamente volátil, Reform se consolidó como fuerza dominante. Estos resultados confirman que el partido no sólo es el dueño de las encuestas, sino que eso se traduce en apoyo electoral real. Para el partido Conservador, liderado por Kemi Badenoch, los resultados fueron catastróficos: perdieron 676 concejales y 16 de 23 consejos disputados. Badenoch está en entredicho dentro de su partido. Para Farage es una bendición, le pidió que no dimita consciente de que su debilidad le beneficia. Los Liberal Demócratas, por su parte, capitalizaron el descontento, ganando en condados como Cambridgeshire y Oxfordshire. El partido Laborista, aunque ha retenido algunos territorios importantes como North Tyneside y Bristol, lo hizo con márgenes estrechos a causa de las peculiaridades del sistema electoral. En Doncaster, de hecho, superó a Reform UK por solo 700 votos. Estos resultados indican que las próximas elecciones generales serán muy disputadas, especialmente en circunscripciones donde los dos principales partidos llegan igualados. El éxito de Reform UK plantea una serie de cuestiones. Sus concejales, alcaldes y consejeros ahora tienen ahora la difícil tarea de gobernar en ayuntamientos y condados con presupuestos limitados y una aguda crisis en servicios públicos como el cuidado de mayores o el mantenimiento de infraestructuras. Farage, magnífico opositor, deberá demostrar su capacidad de gestión, un terreno en el que no tiene experiencia alguna. El ascenso de Reform UK supone de cualquier modo un giro en la política británica. A diferencia de sus predecesores, como el UKIP o el Brexit Party, Reform está mejor organizado y goza de mayor popularidad. Farage, una figura carismática y disciplinada, busca reemplazar a los conservadores como el principal partido de la derecha. Su agenda combina políticas antiinmigración, recortes fiscales y medidas intervencionistas. Eso atrae tanto a conservadores descontentos como a votantes de clase trabajadora. Aspira a una mayoría absoluta en las elecciones en 2029, un objetivo un tanto ambicioso ya que Reform UK tiene en estos momentos sólo cuatro escaños. Pero las encuestas le dan un 25% y el partido Conservador está en caída libre. A diferencia del voto táctico del centro-izquierda, la derecha está dividida, algo que ha llevado a algunos analistas a pedir un acuerdo entre los conservadores y los reformistas, pero Farage no cree que le convenga mientras lidere las encuestas. Faltan aún cuatro años para las elecciones, cuatro años en los que puede pasar cualquier cosa.

Has Starmer got balls? Has any politician?  #KeirStarmer #KemiBadenoch #UKPolitics #PoliticalCourage #WestminsterWatch #LeadershipCrisis  Kemi Badenoch straight-up told Keir Starmer he's got no balls — in Parliament. Savage. But is she wrong? Honestly, do any politicians have the guts to actually do what people want anymore? Or is it all just safe speeches, focus groups, and vibes?  In this video, Jon Gaunt is digging into:

And that is true of the fiscal situation, and it's true of the geo-strategic situation."Is Starmer the Right Stuff to handle Trump & the Radical Right?Raf says many Brits understand the predicament that Starmer finds himself in with a hostile Trump, adding "They understand he's the prime minister. He can't just go and, and sort of piss all over the American president on live television. But no one seriously intuits that they are kindred spirits or alike..."Starmer best PM we've gotRaf thinks Starmer is the best prime minister we've got adding "Constitutionally the alternative is Kemi Badenoch and the per, and if it's not her, it would've been Robert Jenrick with Farage in the wngs.

An MP for 35 years, Michael Heseltine served as Environment Secretary and then Defence Secretary in Margaret Thatcher's government. Following his well-publicised resignation in 1986, he returned to government under John Major and was Deputy Prime Minister for the last two years of Major's premiership. Once seen as a potential successor to Thatcher and Major, he has sat in the Lords since stepping down as an MP in 2001, and in recent years has been an outspoken critic of Brexit. Lord Heseltine sits down with James Heale to discuss his thoughts on the current Labour government, how to fix Britain's broken economy and why devolution should go further. ‘Deeply depressed' by attacks on the civil service – Britain's ‘rolls royce' – he provides his thoughts on various political leaders: Starmer is handling Trump well, Reeves is handling the economy badly, Badenoch is being overshadowed by foreign affairs, and Boris Johnson demonstrated he has ‘no integrity'. And on Thatcher, he says new information has vindicated him over the Westland affair and demonstrated her ‘complicity'. His new book, From Acorns to Oaks: An Urgent Agenda to Rebuild Britain, is out now. Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

Kemi Badenoch has today given a major speech outlining the Conservatives' commitment to ‘realism' in their foreign policy. She said, ‘You cannot help others if you cannot help yourself', and that the sovereignty and strength of Britain matters 'above all'. She also pressed Keir Starmer to push defence spending north of the 2.5 per cent target and – as if it was all choreographed – the prime minister dutifully has, announcing in the Commons that defence spending will reach 3 per cent of GDP by the end of the next parliament. This will come at the expense of the foreign aid budget, another suggestion that the leader of the opposition made in her speech today. What is realism? Is it right to forgo our commitment to overseas aid? Also on the podcast, we got the news yesterday that MP Mike Amesbury has been jailed for 10 weeks after punching a man in his constituency last year. His constituency, Runcorn and Helsby, could be an interesting by-election – could it be a Reform gain? Oscar Edmondson speaks to Katy Balls and Michael Gove. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson sits down with the new leader of the UK Conservative Party, Kemi Badenoch. They discuss her multinational upbringing, how that informed her on the fallacies of multiculturalism, the necessary preconditions of a functioning society, the current political landscape of the UK, and why anger resonates - but cannot rebuild. The Rt Hon Kemi Badenoch was Secretary of State for the Department for Business and Trade between 7 February 2023 and 5 July 2024. She was Secretary of State for International Trade and President of the Board of Trade between 6 September 2022 and 4 July 2024, and Minister for Women and Equalities for the Equality Hub between 25 October 2022 and 4 July 2024. Previously she was Minister of State at the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities between 16 September 2021 and 6 July 2022. She was Minister of State (Minister for Equalities) in the Equality Hub between 14 February 2020 and July 2022. She was previously Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury from 13 February 2020 to 15 September 2021 and Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Education from 27 July 2019 to 13 February 2020. This episode was filmed on January 29th, 2025  | Links | For Kemi Badenoch: On X https://x.com/KemiBadenoch?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor On Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kemibadenoch/?hl=en 

Today was the final PMQs before recess, and Kemi Badenoch had been hoping to leave on a high before the break. She started promisingly, opening with the case of a family from Gaza being granted asylum in the UK under the scheme designed for Ukrainians. Starmer replied to say he disagreed with the decision of the courts and that the Home Secretary was already looking at how to close the ‘legal loophole' enabling that decision. But Badenoch seemingly hadn't prepared for his rebuttal, exposing once again the weakness of her own technique. Does she risk being outshone by her own backbenchers? Also on the podcast, Kim Leadbeater is having to duck suggestions that she has watered down the safeguards in the Assisted Dying Bill by removing the need for a High Court judge. Can the Bill survive? Oscar Edmondson speaks to Isabel Hardman and James Heale. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

The Starmer government's landmark Assisted Dying bill could be in danger of collapsing, with sponsor Kim Leadbeater now proposing major changes in the final moments. Will this signal the end once and for all? Ed Balls and George Osborne clash over how Keir Starmer should best proceed. Should he pull the bill entirely? Or is it time to press on? Meanwhile, Kemi Badeoch is marking 100 days in what is arguably one of the worst jobs going in politics: Leading the opposition. She's working hard to hose down the idea of a pact with Nigel Farage and Reform that just keeps coming up. Why is she having such a hard time getting out from his shadow?And JD Vance (George's mate, remember?) has made his first trip as Vice President across the Atlantic to join a global artificial intelligence summit in Paris.

Kemi Badenoch has been Conservative Party leader for 100 days. Her party is fighting for survival, and she faces an uphill task greater than many of her predecessors: Reform UK surging in the polls, a depleted talent pool of just 121 MPs, and the hangover of 14 years of Conservative rule leaving her hamstrung on issues such as immigration and the economy. Has she managed to transform the party? What will the next 100 days look like? Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Paul Goodman. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Kemi Badenoch has ruled out signing a pact with Nigel Farage's Reform UK, saying the party's manifesto promises “didn't add up”.Speaking exclusively to the Daily T to mark 100 days as Leader of the Opposition, Badenoch said, “I am the custodian of an institution that has existed for nigh on 200 years...I can't just treat it like it's a toy and have pacts and mergers.”Badenoch also called for a UK version of DOGE, Elon Musk's government efficiency drive in the United States, and said the Conservatives risk losing all their remaining council seats in the this year's local elections.We want to hear from you!

Senior Tories like Badenoch and Jenrick are cynically following the lead of far-right wackos like Elon Musk to stoke the grooming gangs story. Are there any red lines left for a desperate Conservative Party that will now say things even Nigel Farage won't?

Today, we look at the debate over a national inquiry into the grooming gangs scandal playing out in the House of Commons.The issue was voted on because of an amendment to a Labour bill that will introduce changes to the education system. Chris unpacks the politics, education editor Branwen Jeffreys explains the changes, and political correspondent Tom Symonds talks about what victims are calling for.You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker.

Kemi Badenoch is just over a month into her tenure as leader of the opposition, and already she has been criticised for her performances at PMQs and for failing to offer much in the way of policy proposals. It has been a consistent gripe of many of Badenoch's detractors that she is a culture warrior or a one-trick pony. However, we might get a better idea of what the Conservatives will look like in the new year once her series of policy commissions get under way. So, how will she position her party? And, as countries around the world turn rightward, can she wrestle herself into conversations with Trump and the like? Oscar Edmondson speaks to Katy Balls and Paul Goodman, former editor of Conservative Home.  Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Kemi Badenoch just became the first black woman to lead the UK's Conservative Party, the oldest in British politics, colloquially known as “the Tories.” She's also 44, has three children, grew up in Nigeria, actually worked at McDonald's (unlike some American politicians who have claimed to), didn't go to Oxford or Cambridge, and has a master's degree in computer engineering. Not exactly your typical Tory party leader profile. But it's Kemi Badenoch who has just inherited a Conservative Party that has dominated British politics for decades until Labour Party leader Keir Starmer became prime minister earlier this year. The Britain that Starmer inherited—the Britain that Conservatives like David Cameron, Theresa May, Boris Johnson, and Rishi Sunak left behind—is a country with enormous debt, a shrinking GDP, a huge immigration challenge, and arguably a national identity crisis. Or as Free Press columnist and British historian Niall Ferguson has bleakly put it, “it seems that the UK has a national suicide wish.”  Can Kemi Badenoch, the woman who has been compared to Margaret Thatcher, turn her party—and ultimately, her country—around? How will the rising star in British politics offer something different than the past five Tory leaders who served before her? And can she beat out not just the Labour left but also the growing threat from a very energized hard right?  If you liked what you heard from Honestly, the best way to support us is to go to TheFP.com and become a Free Press subscriber today.
