Kemi Badenoch's Strategy
Kemi Badenoch, the Tory leader, has revealed a strategic plan that involves no major policy reveals for two years. The plan aims to turn the party's fortunes around, taking inspiration from Sir Keir Starmer's path to power.
Focus for the Years Ahead
The next three years will see a focus on rebuilding trust with voters, establishing credibility, and finally unveiling plans for government. Apologies for past failings, efforts to contrast with other political figures, and outreach programs with international parties are key components of the strategy.
Lessons Learned from the Opposition
Lessons have been drawn from how Sir Keir Starmer and his team managed to lead Labour to victory in a matter of years, inspiring confidence that similar success is achievable for the Conservative party.
Preparation for Early Election
Despite not being required to call an election until 2029, senior Tories are gearing up for a potential early election as soon as late 2027, considering the government's current low popularity.
