Badenoch speaks in a debate on socialism versus capitalism
Recorded 28 May 2018

كيمي بادينوك Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke Badenoch ( /ˈkɛmi ˈbeɪdənɒk/ KEM-ee BAY-də-nok;[1][2][ج] لقبها قبل الزواج Adegoke; ولدت 2 يناير 1980)[4]هي سياسية بريطانية تشغل منصب زعيمة المعارضة وزعيمة حزب المحافظين منذ نوفمبر 2024.[5] عملت سابقاً في مجلس الوزراء تحت رئاسة ليز ترس وريشي سوناك من 2022 إلى 2024. وشغلت منصب عضو في البرلمان، عن شمال غرب إسيكس وسافرون والدن من 2017 إلى 2024.[6]

في عام 2012، نافست بادينوك على مقعد في جمعية لندن وخسرت، ولاحقاً أصبحة عضو في جمعية لندن بعد انتخاب فيكتوريا بورويك نائباً في البرلمان عام 2015. وفي استفتاء 2016، انتخبت بادينوك لعضوية مجلس العموم في الانتخابات العامة 2017.

وبعد أن أصبح بوريس جونسون رئيساً للوزراء في يوليو 2019، عُينت بادينوك كوكيل وزارة الدولة البرلماني لشؤون الأطفال والعائلات. وبموجب التعديل الوزاري في فبراير 2020، تولت بادينوك منصب وكيلة وزارة الخارجية البرلمانية لشؤون المساواة. وفي سبتمبر 2021، تمت ترقيتها إلى وزيرة الدولة لشؤون المساواة وتعيينها وزيرة الدولة للحكم المحلي والمساواة والمجتمعات.


في يوليو 2022، استقالت بادينوك من الحكومة احتجاجاً على إدارة جونسون. وترشحت لتحل محله في انتخابات قيادة حزب المحافظين في يوليو-سبتمبر 2022، لكنها خسرت.[7][8] بعد تعيين ليز ترس رئيسة للوزراء في سبتمبر 2022، تم تعيين بادينوك في منصب وزير الدولة للتجارة الدولية ورئيس مجلس التجارة وكذلك في مستشارة مجلس المملكة الخاص ;[9]أعيد تعيينها وزيرة للتجارة من قبل خليفة تروس، ريشي سوناك، في الشهر التالي، أصبحت كذلك وزيرة المرأة والمساواة.

في التعديل الوزاري الذي أجري في فبراير 2023، تولت بادينوك منصب وزير الدولة للأعمال والتجارة بعد دمج إدارة التجارة الدولية مع فروع من وزارة الأعمال والطاقة والاستراتيجية الصناعية. واحتفظ بادينوك بمهام وزيرة المرأة والمساواة.[10]بعد هزيمة المحافظين في الانتخابات العامة 2024، عُينت بادينوش وزير الظل للإسكان والمجتمعات والحكم المحلي في حكومة الظل لريشي سوناك وبدأت محاولتها لتصبح زعيمة حزب المحافظين وي انتخابات قيادة حزب المحافظين 2024. وهزمت روبرت جينريك في انتخابات الأعضاء، وأصبحت زعيمة الحزب وزعيمة المعارضة.

الحياة المبكرة والتعليم

Olukemi Adegoke was born on 2 January 1980 in Wimbledon, London.[11] She is one of three children born to Nigerian Yoruba parents. Her father, Femi Adegoke, was a GP and her mother, Feyi Adegoke, was a professor of physiology. She has a brother and a sister.[12] Badenoch spent her childhood living in Lagos, Nigeria, and in the United States, where her mother lectured.[13][14] She returned to the UK at the age of 16 to live with a friend of her mother's owing to the deteriorating political and economic situation in Nigeria, which had affected her family.[15] Although a British citizen and born in the UK, during her parliamentary maiden speech Badenoch stated that she was "to all intents and purposes a first-generation immigrant".[16]

Badenoch achieved A Levels from Phoenix College, a further education college in Morden, south London, whilst working at a branch of McDonald's among other jobs. During this time, she said she "became working class".[11][17] Badenoch studied Computer Systems Engineering at the University of Sussex, completing a Master of Engineering (MEng) degree in 2003.[18][19]


Early career

She initially worked within the IT sector, first as a software engineer at Logica (later CGI Group) from 2003 to 2006. While working there she read Law part-time at Birkbeck, University of London, graduating as Bachelor of Laws (LLB) in 2009.[14] Badenoch then worked as a systems analyst at the Royal Bank of Scotland Group,[20] before pursuing a career in consultancy and financial services, working as an associate director at private bank and wealth manager Coutts from 2006 to 2013 and later a digital director for The Spectator from 2015 to 2016.[19][21][22]

Political career

Badenoch joined the Conservative Party in 2005 at the age of 25.[23][24] At the 2010 general election, she contested the Dulwich and West Norwood constituency and came third, behind the Labour Party incumbent MP Tessa Jowell and the Liberal Democrat candidate Jonathan Mitchell.[25]

London Assembly

In 2012, Badenoch stood for the Conservatives in the London Assembly election, where she was placed fifth on the London-wide list.[26] The election saw the Conservatives win three seats from the London-wide list, meaning she was not elected.[27]

Three years later, in the 2015 general election, Victoria Borwick was elected to the House of Commons[28] and thus resigned her seat on the London Assembly. The fourth-placed candidate on the list, Suella Fernandes (Braverman), was also elected as an MP,[29] so Badenoch became the new Assembly Member.[30] She went on to retain her seat in the Assembly at the 2016 election, being succeeded in 2017 by fellow Conservative Susan Hall.[31]

Badenoch supported Brexit in the 2016 UK EU membership referendum.[13]

Parliamentary career

Badenoch was shortlisted to be the Conservative Party candidate for the marginal Hampstead and Kilburn constituency at the 2017 general election, but was unsuccessful.[32] She was subsequently selected for the same election as the Conservative candidate for Saffron Walden, a safe seat for her party, which she won with 37,629 votes and a majority of 24,966 (41.0%).[13][33][34]

Early tenure

In her maiden speech as an MP on 19 July 2017, she described the vote for Brexit as "the greatest ever vote of confidence in the project of the United Kingdom" and cited her personal heroes as the Conservative politicians Winston Churchill, Airey Neave and Margaret Thatcher.[35]

In the same month, Badenoch was selected to join the 1922 Executive Committee.[36] In September, she was appointed to the parliamentary Justice Select Committee.[37] She was appointed as the Conservative Party's Vice Chair for Candidates in January 2018.[38]

She voted for Theresa May's Brexit withdrawal agreement in early 2019. In the indicative votes on 27 March, she voted against a referendum on a withdrawal agreement and against a customs union with the EU.[39] In October, Badenoch voted for Johnson's withdrawal agreement.[40]

In the run-up to the 2019 Conservative Party leadership election, Badenoch was tipped as a possible contender just two years into her tenure in parliament.[41] Badenoch instead supported the campaign of Michael Gove. In the December 2019 general election, she was re-elected with an increased majority of 27,594 (43.7%) votes.[42][43]

Johnson government

In July 2019, Badenoch was appointed as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Children and Families by Boris Johnson.[44][45] In February 2020, Badenoch was appointed Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury and Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Minister for Equalities) in the Department for International Trade.[46]

In a Cabinet reshuffle in September 2021, Badenoch was promoted to Minister of State for Equalities and appointed Minister of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government.[47] Within days of her appointments, the latter title was renamed "Minister of State for Levelling Up Communities".[48][49][50] On 6 July 2022, Badenoch resigned from the government, citing Johnson's handling of the Chris Pincher scandal, in a joint statement with fellow ministers Alex Burghart, Neil O'Brien, Lee Rowley and Julia Lopez.[51]

2022 Leadership candidacy

المقالة الرئيسية: July–September 2022 Conservative Party leadership election

Following Johnson's resignation, Badenoch launched a bid to succeed him as Conservative Party leader,[52] stating that she wanted to "tell the truth" and that she advocated "strong but limited government".[53] As a candidate, she called the target of net zero carbon emissions "ill-thought through" and said that politicians had become "hooked on the idea of the state fixing the majority of problems".[54]

According to The Sunday Times, Badenoch entered the race as "a relatively unknown minister for local government" but "within a week emerged as the insurgent candidate to become Britain’s next prime minister".[55] She was eliminated in the fourth round of voting[56] and did not endorse another candidate.[57]

Truss government

In September 2022, after Liz Truss became prime minister, she appointed Badenoch to her Cabinet as Secretary of State for International Trade.[58][59] Following Truss' resignation the following month, Badenoch endorsed Rishi Sunak in the leadership election,[60] stating that he was "the serious, honest leader we need".[61]

Sunak government

On 25 October 2022, Badenoch was retained as Secretary of State for International Trade by Rishi Sunak upon him becoming prime minister. She was also granted the additional role of Minister for Women & Equalities.[62]

In a February 2023 Cabinet reshuffle, Badenoch was appointed as the first Secretary of State at the newly created Department for Business and Trade, with continued responsibility for equalities. The new role was effectively an expansion of her portfolio as International Trade Secretary to include the business and investment responsibilities of the newly dissolved Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy.[10][63]

In 2022, Badenoch, as Equalities Minister, approved the appointment of Joanne Cash as a Commissioner to the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) board. Badenoch said that Cash had "a track record of promoting women's rights and freedom of expression". Subsequently, in the summer of 2022, Cash donated to Badenoch's campaign as a candidate for leadership of the Conservative Party. In 2023, after the appointment was completed, Anneliese Dodds, shadow equalities minister, said the government was engulfed in "sleaze and cronyism" and Badenoch should "come clean" about why she hadn't declared a political interest in the appointment. When it reported the story, The Guardian said Badenoch had not broken any rules and quoted an Equality Hub spokesperson saying the "appointment was made following a full and open competition".[64]

In late April 2023, Badenoch announced that the government was planning to reduce the number of laws to be repealed to around 800, as opposed to the government's original target of around 4,000 laws.[65][66] The change was met with dismay by Brexit advocates, including the Bill's original architect Jacob Rees-Mogg.[67] Nevertheless, The New Statesman named her as the seventh most powerful British right-wing figure in 2023, describing her as the "darling" of many party members, in spite of "cooling enthusiasm".[68]

On 1 May 2024 Badenoch's office used a letter sent by Conservative MP Eddie Hughes to Walsall Academy as evidence to support Badenoch's claim that girls at a school who did not want to use gender-neutral toilets developed urinary tract infections. Hughes had claimed in May 2023 in a letter to Walsall Academy that "one female pupil has developed a UTI" as she did not feel comfortable using gender-neutral toilets.[69][70]

Early Opposition and 2024 Leadership bid

Logo for Badenoch's 2024 leadership campaign

Due to the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, Badenoch's constituency of Saffron Walden was abolished, and replaced with North West Essex. At the 2024 general election, Badenoch was elected to Parliament as MP for North West Essex with 35.6% of the vote and a majority of 2,610.[71] After the Conservative defeat at the general election, she was appointed Shadow Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government.[72] She publicly criticised Rishi Sunak and Suella Braverman.[73] On 28 July 2024, she announced she was running in the election to be the new Tory leader.[74][75] Despite being considered the frontrunner at the beginning of the contest,[76] Badenoch suffered a number of setbacks in the first and second MP ballots, coming second to Robert Jenrick, with 22 and 28 votes respectively.[77][78] However, according to both YouGov's poll and ConservativeHome's survey of the Conservative Party membership, Badenoch still led every other candidate in a head to head race in a membership vote.[79][80] Badenoch came third in the third MP's ballot, with 30 votes,[81] but topped the final vote of MPs with 42, one ahead of Robert Jenrick and five clear of James Cleverly who was eliminated.[82][83] In the Member's vote, Badenoch faced Jenrick, who she defeated with 56.5% of the vote. She was then declared the winner of the race, and thus Leader of the Conservative Party.[84]

Leader of the Opposition

In her acceptance speech, Badenoch vowed to "renew" the Conservative Party, setting out her belief that the Conservative's had two responsibilities: to "hold this Labour Government to account" and to "prepare over the course of the next few years for government".[85]

Political views

Badenoch is described as being on the right wing of the Conservative Party.[86] She has also personally described herself as being on the "liberal wing" of the Conservative Party,[87] whilst being "not really left-leaning on anything".[88] She has identified English philosopher Roger Scruton and American economist Thomas Sowell as her influences, citing Sowell's Basic Economics as an influence.[89] She has also been characterised as a social conservative and "anti-woke" politician.[87][90]

Race relations

Badenoch as Minister for Equalities and Levelling Up Communities

During a House of Commons debate in April 2021, Badenoch criticised the Labour Party's response to a report compiled by the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities that had declared Britain was not institutionally racist. Labour had described the report as "cherry-picking of data", while the party's former frontbench MP Dawn Butler claimed the report was "gaslighting on a national scale", describing those who put it together as "racial gatekeepers".[91] Badenoch accused Labour of "wilful misrepresentations" over the report and responded to Butler's comments by stating "It is wrong to accuse those who argue for a different approach as being racism deniers or race traitors. It's even more irresponsible, dangerously so, to call ethnic minority people racial slurs like Uncle Toms, coconuts, house slaves or house negroes for daring to think differently."[92][93]

In a Black History Month debate in the House of Commons in October 2020, she reiterated the government's opposition to primary and secondary schools teaching white privilege and similar "elements of critical race theory" as uncontested facts.[94] ConservativeHome readers voted Badenoch's speech on critical race theory 2020 "speech of the year", in which she said that any school that teaches "elements of political race theory as fact, or which promotes partisan political views such as defunding the police without offering a balanced treatment of opposing views, is breaking the law."[95]

During her leadership campaign launch, Badenoch expressed criticism of identity politics in a 2022 article for The Times, arguing that, "Exemplified by coercive control, the imposition of views, the shutting down of debate, the end of due process, identity politics is not about tolerance or individual rights but the very opposite of our crucial and enduring British values."[16][89]

In September 2024, Badenoch wrote an article for The Sunday Telegraph in which she argued that "not all cultures are equally valid". She argued that "Our country is not a dormitory for people to come here and make money. It is our home. Those we chose to welcome, we expect to share our values and contribute to our society. British citizenship is more than having a British passport but also a commitment to the UK and its people." Badenoch called for a better "integration strategy" that emphasized British values and culture, referring in her article to the head of the Equality and Human Rights Commission, Baroness Falkner, who had reported that "we seem to be failing to integrate" new immigrants, and "called for new arrivals to the UK to be required to take an “integration course”, adopting an approach used in Germany."[96][97][98]

Colonialism

Regarding the United Kingdom's colonial history, Badenoch has argued that "there were terrible things that happened during the British Empire, there were other good things that happened, and we need to tell both sides of the story".[99]

In leaked WhatsApp messages, Badenoch said "I don't care about colonialism because [I] know what we were doing before colonialism got there" and argued that Europeans "came in and just made a different bunch of winners and losers" on the African continent. She also stated that prior to colonisation, "There was never any concept of 'rights', so [the] people who lost out were old elites; not everyday people".[100]

In a 2024 speech, Badenoch said: "It worries me when I hear people talk about wealth and success in the UK as being down to colonialism or imperialism or white privilege or whatever."[101] Instead, "she said the Glorious Revolution of 1688 – which led to the development of the UK constitution and solidified the role of parliament – should be credited for providing the kind of economic certainty that paved the way for the Industrial Revolution."[101]

LGBT rights and feminism

Badenoch describes herself as a gender-critical feminist and has been an outspoken critic of moves to amend legislation to allow for self-certification of transgender gender identity. In an article in The Sunday Times in the aftermath of the publication of the Cass Review, an investigation into gender identity services in the NHS, she wrote that had "those who warned that gender services in the NHS had been hijacked by ideologues been listened to instead of gagged, children would not have been harmed and the Cass review would not have been required. Our responsibility is to ensure that nothing like it ever happens again."[102]

As Minister of State for Equalities, Badenoch opposed plans by the Financial Conduct Authority to allow trans employees to self-identify in the workplace,[103] opposed gender-neutral toilets in public buildings, and has spoken in favour of retaining single-sex spaces such as toilets, professional sports, changing rooms, and domestic violence shelters for women.[104][105]

In 2019, Badenoch abstained on a vote to extend same-sex marriage rights to Northern Ireland.[106] In March 2021, Badenoch was encouraged to "consider her position" as an Equalities Minister by Jayne Ozanne, one of a group of three government LGBT advisers who quit their roles due to the decision by the government not to include transgender conversion therapy in its plans to ban gay conversion therapy, with Ozanne describing a speech by Badenoch on the issue as being "appalling" and the "final straw".[107]

In 2021, Vice News received leaked audio from 2018 in which Badenoch said “Even when, you know, so, people hear about, you know like the whole bathroom thing, it’s actually more of an American thing but they have a similar problem, that, right so now it’s not just about being free to marry who you want, you now want to have men using women’s bathrooms.” She was accused by critics of mocking gay marriage and of transphobia for referring to trans women as "men".[108][109] A government spokesperson rejected these claims, saying that "This 2018 comment has been taken out of context, with the Minister making a clear point about striking the balance for equality and fairness when there are multiple and often competing demands between different groups. It should not be used to misrepresent her views."[109]

In 2023, Badenoch gave a speech before the House of Commons in which she announced regulations stripping the ability of transgender migrants from certain countries to acquire documents in the UK to match those brought from their countries of origin. This was stated as being due to these countries allowing trans people to transition "too easily".[110] She stated that "It is this government’s policy that the UK does not recognise self-identification for the purpose of obtaining a Gender Recognition Certificate" and that it "should not be possible for a person who does not satisfy the criteria for UK legal gender recognition to use the overseas routes to do so."[110]

Badenoch went on to announce the government's plans to move forward on a conversion therapy ban, while saying that gender affirming healthcare for young people who question their gender was "a new form of conversion therapy" as, in her view, "are seeing I would say almost an epidemic of young gay children being told that they are trans and being put on a medical pathway for irreversible decisions and regretting what they have done", further stating that a draft bill would address the concern that clinicians are "fearful of giving honest clinical advice to a child because if they do not automatically affirm and medicalise a child's new gender they will be labelled transphobic".[111] She further announced plans to ban social transition in British schools, according to which transgender-identifying children would be permitted to self-identity as the gender identity of their choice without parental consent or knowledge.[112][113][114]

In September 2024, while standing to be leader of the Conservative Party, Badenoch was asked if she believed that "maternity pay is excessive". In response, Badenoch answered, "I think it's gone too far, too far the other way in terms of general business regulation, we need to allow businesses, especially small businesses, to make more of their own decisions". Later the same day, during an interview with Sky News, Badenoch stated that maternity pay was "a good thing" and said "I don't think it is excessive", saying that she was speaking about business regulation in general, rather than maternity pay specifically.[115]

Economics and class

In a 2024 pamphlet distributed as part of her campaign for leadership of the Conservative Party, Badenoch said that politics has shifted away from class "in the old sense – increasingly, whether you are high income does not drive your voting patterns. Educated voters are moving left, and many private sector voters on average incomes are moving right."[116] She also said that a new 'progressive ideology' was on the rise built on "the twin pillars of constant intervention on behalf of protecting marginalized, vulnerable groups, including protecting us from ourselves – and the idea that bureaucrats make better decisions than individuals, or even democratic nation states".[116]

Badenoch said that the consequent growth in government regulations and public expenditure cripples economic growth, polarises societies, and leads to the a "new and growing bureaucratic class", where "more and more jobs are related not to providing goods and services in the marketplace, but are instead focused around administering government rules."[116]

Controversies

Hacking of Labour MP's website

In 2018, Badenoch admitted that, a decade earlier, she had hacked into the website of Harriet Harman as a prank, who was then Deputy Leader of the Labour Party; Harman accepted Badenoch's apology, but the matter was reported to Action Fraud, the UK's cyber crime reporting centre.[117][118][119]

Tulip Siddiq comments

In 2019, Badenoch was criticised by a number of Labour MPs for suggesting that Tulip Siddiq was "making a point" by delaying her scheduled caesarean section in order to attend a House of Commons vote on Brexit.[120][121]

Nadine White incident

Badenoch published a series of tweets in January 2021 in which she included screenshots of questions sent to her office by HuffPost journalist Nadine White whom she, as a result, accused of "creepy and bizarre behaviour". White subsequently made her Twitter account private, citing the abuse she received.[122] Badenoch's actions were criticised by both the National Union of Journalists and the Council of Europe's Safety of Journalists Platform.[123][124] She was defended by the Prime Minister's press secretary who commented that it was all a "misunderstanding".[125]

Accusations of bullying

In July 2024, The Guardian reported that at least three officials working under Badenoch had experienced bullying in the Department for Business and Trade and that she had created an intimidating atmosphere whilst she was in charge.[126] According to this report, the officials felt "pushed out" by "bullying and traumatising" behaviour and claimed that individuals were regularly humiliated and occasionally left in tears after working with her. An official "town hall" meeting had been held in December 2023 to address low morale in the department.[126][127][128] Badenoch denied these claims, describing them as smears from former staff and accusing them of "covering up their own failures and general gross incompetence", and accused The Guardian of acting on behalf of the Labour Party.[126] A department spokesperson confirmed that there were no formal complaints or investigations into Badenoch's alleged behaviour.[126][127][128]

Civil servants

Speaking at the 2024 Conservative Party Conference, Badenoch stated that up to 10% of civil servants are so bad they should be in prison, suggesting they leak official secrets and "agitate" against ministers, "There’s about 5–10% of them who are very, very bad. You know, should-be-in-prison bad", Badenoch said.[129] According to Sky News, a source close to Badenoch clarified that her comments "were a joke".[بحاجة لمصدر]

The general secretary of the FDA union of civil servants, Dave Penman, called on Badenoch to withdraw the comments. "These are serious accusations from a former secretary of state, who is now standing to be leader of her party. If she has evidence to back up those claims she should publish it, otherwise withdraw."[129]

Personal life

She is married to Hamish Badenoch; they have two daughters and a son.[130][131] Hamish works for Deutsche Bank[13][43] and was a Conservative councillor from 2014 to 2018 on Merton Borough Council.[132][133] He also contested Foyle for the Northern Ireland Conservatives at the 2015 general election.[134]

Kemi Badenoch was a board member of the Charlton Triangle Homes housing association until 2016, and was also a school governor at St Thomas the Apostle College in Southwark, and the Jubilee Primary School.[20][135]

Badenoch describes herself as an agnostic with cultural Christian values and notes that her maternal grandfather was a Methodist minister in Nigeria.[136][137]

Badenoch's father died in February 2022 and she took bereavement leave from her ministerial duties for a brief period.[138]
