Kemi Badenoch hits back at Labour as she launches Tory leadership bid
Kemi Badenoch has warned the former Tory government’s mistake was that it “talked right but governed left”.

Speaking at the launch of her “Renewal 2030” campaign in London yesterday (MON), the Shadow Communities Secretary said: “We need to reboot, reset, and rewire.
“We talked right but governed left. Sounding like Conservatives but acting like Labour”.
Addressing a packed room at the Institution of Engineering and Technology, she added: “A government that tries to do everything will likely end up achieving nothing. This was one of our mistakes.”
