You can text us here with any comments, questions, or thoughts!Imposter syndrome, as defined, is that nagging feeling that your achievements are merely luck rather than a reflection of your hard work and capabilities. Kemi emphasizes that while this feeling is common, it can be misdiagnosed. This discussion is not just about feeling inadequate; it's about recognizing the difference between genuine skill gaps and the emotional turmoil that can accompany holding a marginalized identity in a predominantly white space. Listen now as Kemi invites us to reflect on our experiences and consider how we can face the fire of self-awareness.

Could ‘Maga-fication' change the course of British politics? Anne has been speaking to former Conservative Prime Minister, Liz Truss, who outlines several perceived problems in the country – from lack of growth to higher taxes. The duo also discuss her comments about what the Tories really stands for and the threat from Reform UK as the party grapples for prominence in the polls.
We've just had PMQs, which have become much more interesting now that Kemi Badenoch has got her act together. She led on the Grooming Gangs Inquiry after a fourth survivor quit the inquiry over fears that it's being watered down. She went as far as to say that the government is in a ‘briefing war against survivors', and accused Labour of a ‘cover-up'. Nigel Farage attempted to upstage proceedings with his own stunt – he watched from the public gallery to make the point that he isn't given the chance to defend himself or his party. However, Badenoch's display meant that his tantrum has gone pretty much unnoticed. Is Kemi on the front foot?Also today, Starmer's new go-to girl Louise Casey is back in the news as she joins the inquiry. She has been mooted as a potential successor to Chris Wormald, the Cabinet Secretary. There has been a lot of briefing against Wormald – who was a perplexing pick in the first instance – but if they don't want him why not ‘sack him … and find him an Oxford college(!)', as Tim suggests?Oscar Edmondson speaks to Tim Shipman and James Heale.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Kemi Badenoch, Tory Leader and member of UK Parliament, joined the Guy Benson Show today to discuss current events and the state of UK politics. Badenoch discussed why Trump's leadership is something that is sorely needed in the U.K, as many across the pond desire a more conservative government. Benson and Badenoch also discussed several shocking free speech stories coming out of the UK, including a Jewish man who was questioned by UK police for openly wearing a Star of David. Benson and Badenoch also discussed the state of conservatism in the UK and how they are viewed by the country, and why she hopes a signifigant "vibe shift" can provide success for her party.

Our guest this week is the remarkable Kemi Ashing-Giwa, whose new novel The King Must Die is out in November. We talk about science fantasy—or whether genre labels mean much at all to the new generation of writers—her own influences, her well-received first novel, the space opera The Splinter in the Sky, and even her current scientific work on mass extinctions and the loss of her family home in the California wildfires earlier this year. As always, our thanks to Kemi for making time to talk to us today, and we hope you enjoy the episode.
HEADLINE: UK Political Realignment and the Migration Crisis GUEST NAME: Joseph Sternberg SUMMARY:Joseph Sternberg discusses the UK's political realignment following the Conservative Party's 14-year misrule. Kemi Badenoch aims to revive the Tories with Thatcherite economic policies and a strong stance on welfare reform, prioritizing work and fairness. However, the Tories lack credibility on the highly controversial issue of illegal immigration across the English Channel, allowing Nigel Farage's Reform party to gain ground. The migration problem remains intractable due to high costs and lack of political incentive. 1880

You can text us here with any comments, questions, or thoughts!This week, Kemi tackles the pressing question: What does the new standard of academia look like in the wake of recent upheavals? As institutions grapple with shifting ideologies, Kemi explores the implications for academic faculty and the emergence of a new "gig economy" within academia. In this episode, she emphasizes the need for faculty to redefine their self-worth, viewing themselves as valuable resources rather than mere commodities to be leveraged by institutions. Kemi also outlines the importance of understanding the connections between your input and output, and how to articulate your unique contributions, your “collateral benefits”, within this evolving landscape.

#KemiBadenoch #ToryConference #StampDuty #BritishPubs #NigelFarage #Jon Gaunt #MargaretThatcher #GaryNeville Kemi Badenoch has exploded onto the national stage with a powerhouse conference speech that's shaking up British politics. Her promise to scrap Stamp Duty and defend our Great British pubs has people calling her the new Iron Lady — the next Margaret Thatcher. Meanwhile, Gary Neville is under fire for his attacks on the National Anthem and our flag, with fans demanding that Sky TV sack him. Tonight, Jon Gaunt is LIVE at 6.30 — fiery, unfiltered, and unapologetic — as Britain debates whether Kemi Badenoch is the future of Conservatism and whether Gary Neville has finally gone too far. Kemi Badenoch's knockout conference speech has lit up British politics! Her promise to scrap Stamp Duty will be cheered in every home — and her defence of our great British pubs has the nation raising a glass. Finally, a Tory with backbone and belief! Could this be the rebirth of real Conservatism — and is Kemi the new Iron Lady, the next Margaret Thatcher? Meanwhile, Gary Neville — once an England hero — has turned into a national embarrassment. From refusing to sing the anthem to sneering at our flag, he's insulted the very fans who made him rich. Sky TV must act — viewers are cancelling in disgust. Neville's morphing into another Gary Lineker with a chip on his shoulder and sixth-form politics in his head. Join the debate LIVE — Kemi's rise, Neville's fall, and why Britain's fighting spirit is back!
Empty chairs, misspelling Britain, and a surprisingly good speech from Kemi Badenoch have brought a rollercoaster Conservative conference to a close. Ed Balls and George Osborne weigh up whether the highs outweighed the lows and ask if Badenoch has bought herself more time. And, with the threat from Reform looming, they ask: is a pact still on the table?The pair then dissect one of the conference's biggest bombshells: the pledge to leave the ECHR. Is this another Brexit-in-the-making, or a savvy political move? And could Keir Starmer, the former human rights lawyer, be the one person with the credibility to reform the system and solve one of his biggest political headaches?Plus, Ed and George dive into the Whitehall blame game over the collapsed China spy case. As the government's top figures point fingers, Ed reveals a stunning conspiracy theory about what might really be going on behind the scenes…To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

Today, Kemi Badenoch gave a speech at the Conservative party conference. Adam, Chris, and Henry Zeffman were listening and give their immediate reaction.She announced a flurry of new policies, including abolishing stamp duty and introducing a fiscal “golden rule”. Did she manage to silence her critics? And is her job as party leader, at least for now, safe? She also attacked Labour for the collapse a case of two men accused of spying for China, which they deny. But is she right to accuse the government of “sucking up to Beijing?”You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker. If you want to listen, just say "Ask BBC Sounds to play Newscast”.

Plus, Sam and Anne briefly reflect on the conference season before MPs return to Westminster next week.

Just search ‘Quite right!' wherever you are listening now.This week, Michael and Maddie record Quite right! in front of a live audience at the Conservative Party conference in Manchester – with attendance down, the big question is whether Kemi Badenoch can survive as leader of the opposition. There is the unmistakable air of fatalism among MPs staring down electoral annihilation – but would another change in leadership cement the Tories as pathologically regicidal?They also debate Badenoch's bold pledge to bar candidates who won't back leaving the European Convention on Human Rights – a ‘calculated risk' that could redefine the party's identity or too little too late?Then, in the wake of the horrific Manchester synagogue attack, they turn to the rise of anti-Semitism and the crisis of policing. Are Britain's streets really being governed by ‘two-tier justice'? And what does it say about public order – and public confidence – that Jewish Britons are being told to stay indoors for their own safety?Finally, they dissect the Church of England's choice of Sarah Mullally as the new Archbishop of Canterbury. Is she an inspired appointment, or proof that the Church has become, as Michael puts it, ‘another bureaucratic manifestation of generalised niceness'?Produced by Oscar Edmondson Hosted on Acast.

As Kemi Badenoch fights for her political life at the Conservative Party conference, the Tories face a growing threat from the right. With high-profile defections to Reform UK and deep internal divisions, is this the beginning of the end for the Conservative Party?In this episode of the Fourcast, Cathy Newman speaks with former deputy prime minister and Conserative MP Baroness Therese Coffey, and Lord Daniel Finklestein, columnist for The Times and also a Tory peer. They unpack the party's identity crisis and ask whether the Tories can survive or if British politics is undergoing a major and irreversable realignment.
Sam and Anne have done the late-night Conservative conference parties and have news from those – as well as the day ahead. It's ‘law and order' day in Manchester - Robert Jenrick will unveil plans to abolish the sentencing council to end what some Tories call “two-tier justice system.” But Jenrick is at the centre of another story – calling the Handsworth area of Birmingham one of the “worst integrated places” he'd ever seen.Sam and Anne discuss if he'll mind having those comments out there. And, on the second anniversary of October 7th, the Prime Minister warns people to not take part in protests, calling them “un-British.”

Beth's at the Conservative party conference – talking to the shadow environment secretary Victoria Atkins. She says that Kemi Badenoch has shown resilience and character in her first year as party leader- but it's taken time to find confidence and her 11 months of ‘listening' and ‘absorbing' has come with ‘political knocks'. She acknowledges that she is sorry about the Tory proposal to leave the ECHR - but says politicians have to deal with the politics of today. She also reveals how her parents met at Tory conference and which politician makes her shout at TV. Remember, you can also watch Beth Rigby, Harriet Harman and Ruth Davidson on YouTube.

The suspect, who was shot by police, is also believed to be dead.Also on the podcast, Tim Shipman interviews Kemi Badenoch for the magazine this week. As she enters conference season with the Tories running third in the polls behind Reform and Labour, she tells Tim that she is up for a fight. On Friday, her shadow cabinet will agree a policy of leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) but her first conference announcement – revealed exclusively to Tim – will be scrapping the Climate Change Act.
