New British Conservative Party Head Blasts Labour Party For Helping Kamala

Kemi Badenoch, the new leader of the Conservative Party in Great Britain, ripped into the ruling Labour Party Wednesday for sending representatives to aid Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed presidential effort.

Badenoch, who was named the leader of her party just three days before the U.S. presidential election, took Prime Minister Keir Starmer to task during Prime Minister’s Questions, a weekly session where the PM faces inquiries from Parliament. Badenoch was referencing Labour Party operations head Sofia Patel’s announcement that the party would help the Harris campaign.

“I have nearly 100 Labour party staff (current and former) going to the US in the next few weeks heading to North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Virginia. I have 10 spots available for anyone available to head to the battleground state of North Carolina — we will sort your housing.”

“Yet another reason to vote for President Trump,” Senator Tom Cotton (R-AK) said at the time.

“I’m very sure that President Trump will soon be calling to thank him for sending all of those North London Labour activists to campaign for his opponent,” Badenoch said.

Badenoch began by asking Starmer of Foreign Secretary David Lammy would apologize for remarks he made about Trump in 2018, while serving as a parliamentary representative for Tottenham in North London.

“On Friday, a 19-foot a ‘Trump Baby’ balloon is set to float over the Houses of parliament in London, as President Donald Trump makes his first official visit to the United Kingdom. I will be one of tens of thousands on the streets, protesting against our government’s capitulation to this tyrant in a toupee,” Lammy wrote in TIME magazine in 2018.  “Trump is not only a woman-hating, neo-Nazi-sympathizing sociopath. He is also a profound threat to the international order that has been the foundation of Western progress for so long.”

“As leader of his Majesty’s opposition, I have been taking a different approach to the last opposition by being a constructive opposition,” Badenoch said Wednesday.

“And so I would like to start by congratulating President-Elect Trump on his impressive victory this morning. The Prime Minister and the Foreign Secretary met him in September. Did the Foreign Secretary take the opportunity to apologize for making derogatory and scatological references including, and I quote, ‘Trump is not only a woman-hating neo-Nazi-sympathizing sociopath, he is also a profound threat to international order.’ And if he did not apologize, will the Prime Minister do so now on his behalf?”

“The Foreign Secretary and I did meet President-elect Trump just a few weeks ago for dinner about a couple of hours; we discussed a number of issues of global significance; it was a very constructive exercise,” Starmer answered.

“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister did not distance himself from the remarks made by the Foreign Secretary, Badenoch said..
