- Kemi Badenoch is celebrated as a strong Tory figure but has displayed weak and inconsistent leadership.
- Her inability to articulate a clear policy agenda raises doubts about her suitability while the party struggles under Labour's governance.
- Persistently high immigration numbers and her failure to address this issue could lead to further political failure.
- The rising threat from Reform and other right-wing parties highlights the Conservatives' vulnerability under Badenoch's leadership.
