Alot of people underestimated her. The comments suggest they still are. She's a sharp as a tack, logical and thoughtful. A engineer she creates solutions that work. Try looking past her colour.
Just handed reform everything lol
And this is an absolute gift for the labour party 😊
Reform are finished after they failed to acknowledge facist Tommy Robinson supporters as theirs.
Reform? 😂😂😂😂
@@michaelclifford6468 no party rules forever, remember that.
That's why the recent poll results show a drop in Reform support? Grow up and face reality, Reform will NEVER get enough votes, wont come close, to ever taking Number 10.
Why not elect Gary Glitter as their new leader?
They'd lose fewer votes.
It’s been said a few times, Labour MP’s will now have to declare this gift.
She stole First Black Woman in charge from Labour haha

Just what we want, a Nigerian born leader of the Tory party. Nigel Farage will be prime minister after the next election.
How long has Wimbledon been in Nigeria?
Not with the current electoral system he won't, he came 3rd overall in the last election and only won 5 seats
The Nigel 🤡 will lose his seat in 2029 😂

Racist!
@@TheMS26why is it racist?
@@TheMS26it's not racist, Kemi herself described the circumstances of her birth as "like winning one of Willy Wonka's golden tickets"
@@TheMS26 Not racist, just fact. Get over yourself.
@@TheMS26 Even if it is "racist", so what? It's quite normal for the citizens of a nation state to prefer having one of their own leading their government - it's called 'in-group preference' and it's practiced throughout nature.
This will finish the Tories. Did they learn nothing from appointing Sunak
Obviously not, because nobody was allowed to talk openly about it, or they'd be accused of being a follower of that Austrian chap
I am sorry that it is not an indigenous person of the United Kingdom who won

Big big big mistake. The tories are done. Bye bye
I.don't mind if it is Kemi Badenoch.
I don't mind if it is Robert Jenrick.
I don't mind if it is Nigel Farage of Reform UK.
JUST NOT THE LABOUR.
Get the Leftards out of the Government.
Please get the consolidation work done and don't let Labour wins with only 33.7% of vote again.
@VincentVance-j4w So true, Robert is more likely a businessman, and Kemi is more likely a warrior.
Wow! they've only just been voted in and by whom I wonder!!
Im 43 muslim, born in uk.
Considering voting reform, i must admit
Oh dear what a waste of a vote! although each to their own!
If only reform didn’t prostrate themselves before Israel

Sunaks parents were born and raised in England. This woman is an immigrant that moved when she was 17
Sunak's parents were immigrants born in Africa and moved to the UK. Get it right!
@@SisMarg While Sunak's grandparents were born in India and migrated to Africa.
Simple answer DEI
Does Labour need to declare this gift?
Surely they are jealous? First African woman to lead the party?
I would have thought so, it's the biggest one they've ever received.
So, Labour for 5 more years then! 👍
This is what I predicted over a pint with my conservative mates some weeks ago. That by the time it got to members voting if your choice was out of the race it was Hobson's choice : an apparently free choice when there is no real alternative and the necessity of accepting one of two or more equally objectionable alternatives. I think the figures bare that out. Its just what I think. If the membership are happy, I'm happy for them.
The Tories have the type of box-ticking leader Labour can only dream of 🤣
I couldn't vote for her because she is not British 😊
Coz shes black
She is more British than RUclipsr Tousi, one of Robinson's main fan boys, Come to that, if she only has one passport she's more British than TR himself.
I am all for her and her right views
Yes but I would vote for Putin to fix the UK
@@tomvalentine4928Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke Badenoch is not, and never will be British
There is no excuse for that unless failure is now thier expectation
Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke Badenoch. Born in Wimbledon to exploit a now closed loophole and shortly afterwards whisked off to be brought up in Nigeria.
yes
Her parents were born British too!
Omg never gets my vote now will the last Conservative mp switch off the lights 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

They should have listened to the Austrian painter. If they had, Britain and the rest of Europe would be a much better place for the indigenous Europeans.
We all know. Why she won...
A heart of darkness!

Who gives a 💩?
Nice one. I think we know the answer. It's just a new pimple on the half of theunwashed arse stamped "Conservative " on one cheek, and "Labour" on the other.
it's kind of irrelevant. Labour are in for a while and I'd be surprised if Kemi was even still leader bt the next election.
Got to love a bit of diversity
Well I now have to vote reform
Should have been voting for Reform anyway.
@@fmyouthdev he was, it's a troll
BOX TICKER no other reason
The Tories are now, like Labour and the LibDems, unashamedly pro-muIticuIturalists - three wings of the same gIobaIist uni-party.
Badenoch: Moved to England at 17 her parents flew to England to have her as a loophole for a passport
Sunak: Grandparents moved to England in the 1950s.
Ar least with Sunak he was British. Shes a fricking immigrant
Sunak's parents were immigrants born in Africa and moved to the UK. Get it right!
Born in Wimbledon to exploit a now closed loophole and shortly afterwards whisked off to be brought up in Nigeria.
The political parties have let uk citizens down poorly especially Mr BorisJ
Very lazy analysis of Kemis Badenock's win. Poor propaganda. Sky news should look for something else to say. She has an objective understanding of where Britain is now, how they got there, and how to come out of it. The Labour leadership and government have turned to a mirage for the British people.
Great news. Fantastic choice.
Badenoch moved to the UK at 17 , she was an anchor baby,
I’m waiting for the reaction from dianne abbot and dawn butler.
In the late sixties it was thought Shirley Williams will become the first labour woman PM. she didn't and the conservative beat labour by producing M Thatcher. They have gone on to produce three female PM and the first non indigenous PM in Sunak. Now the conservative has produced the first black leader of a major party. Well, i am reminded that the house Windsor, the Royal family does have a German ancestry. The English people are so so tolerant.
She win the vote because Tories are clueless 😂the same like they was with Sunak They doomed now
KEMI BAD ENOCH??
Well done quick!
Kemi Bad Enough
Great choice.
Because they don't want to leave the echr. They are still divided and can't agree what is needed or wanted by the people.
The reason is called DEI and WEF
Is she connected with the WEF? From what I know of her, she's a staunch right-winger and despises wokeism, so not exactly what you'd expect for DEI...
She won because Jenrick made them comments about the army
Politically irrelevant. For enthusiasts only.
THEOCRACY not DEMOCRACY
I think it's great that she won. At least she loves Britain, more than can be said for the current shower.
Go Kemi!
She'll be Cannonfodder for Starmer and his band of thieves.
They voted her in to get Asian black votes, the same path as Labour are following etc.
Kemi is the best. Congratulations to her.
Best of a bad bunch, a see a pattern appearing 😂
The best what ?
Maybe the best for the Nigerians living here, but what about true British people whose country it is
@@carefreescottrue British? Like the true British Royal family?😂
Born in Wimbledon to exploit a now closed loophole and shortly afterwards whisked off to be brought up in Nigeria.
If Jenrick had won he would be expected like Boris to say and do things he simply can't do. Kemi doesn't have those restrictions. Of course as a Party member I will back the leader but I also expect the leader to be a fiscal conservative.
She is just a caretaker leader.
Do ne to win black votes perhaps? what other reason could there be?
That would make sense, the best comment I’ve read so far.
Why? Because the Tory members are fed up with their own party so therefore they decided it is the time to give the Labour a huge🎁.. Kemi elected as the new Tory leader is a sign that Labour will be in power 🔋 for many more years to come.. its another Blair's labour power for Keir.....Conservative members had done a great 👍 thing by giving this 👏 🎁 to Labour to save 🇬🇧... well done 👏
I wouldn't underestimate her, she's more than a match for Starmer, Starmer Rayner Lammy, come on FFS.
Political irrelevance isn't such a bad thing, really.
Maybe lighter hair color or style will do it
We need better quality people in parliament not slap on the back mate and people who will put the British people first
Insanity the final nail in the coffin
ENOCH WARNED US
Tick..and tick
Interesing choice. Hard work ahea to keep tories above reform, maybe even liberal dems. They still havent worked out why majority of the country voted brexit.
Shes promised to replace the no10 cat with chickens in her manifesto.
Death wish?
When Kemi's supporters say "Kemi is a work in progress" what they mean is 'We know she makes errors of judgment'. It probably will bring back some Reform UK voters though. Perhaps that is her role - more as opposition to Reform UK than to the Labour party? Kemi has said before she wouldn't share a party with Nigel so that might be the next battle ground.
I dont vote tory. I dont vote for nigerian immigrants either...
Congratulations to the Lib Dems…
Skys coverage is a party politcal broadcast on behalf of the conservatives
As is the BBC for Labour 🤨

Congratulations Kemi, the first black, female leader of any political party, in UK history.😁👍
@@ANH-1977 Despite her race and gender, she claims herself "anti-woke".
Ooh dear that won’t appeal to those who defected to Reform
Why does it matter if they are black or white.
PPL should be more interested in the content of her character as it pertains to her being a politician. Like the rest of her party it's dreadful, the things she says are dreadful and not rational. The conservatives think electing a woman of colour as their new leader makes them less racist, it doesn't work that way.
DEI hire
They chose her to do their DIRTY work!!!!
I think my own personal apocalypse is out done, I sense defeat.
Hooray.. that's Tories finished, just the LIEBOUR to go .....
A bouncy ride.
B'cos she's smart
Well, I was going to write "This will finish the Tories. Did they learn nothing from appointing Sunak" - but that is precisely what someone has already posted. The UK is finished.
Sunak at least had a claim to being British. His parents were born and bred in England, and his grandparents moved her in the 1940s. This woman moved here at 17 from Nigeria😂😂 shes only technically born in the UK as she was an anchor passport baby
WE NO GO SLAVA UKRAINE

Russian bots love Kemi
Because she isn't as woke as the other W⚓!
Too young
There a surprise…… not
Suprised to see the amount of comments aimed at her ethnicity and gender. I thought it was a labour game to play identity politics.
She was the best candidate really
She's perfect.
Britain becomes secular lol
Color problem uk
Another diversity candidate.
A gyapot meg ott rohad.
She is elected by the far right wing of the conservative party.a sad day for British politics.
No brain cells on action I see 🙄
I love the new Tory leader and the UK! Congrats from Spain ! I wish we had some leader with class like her. Unfortunately in Spain we have the worst of the worst
She hasn't been elected as prime minister so she isn't the leader of the UK.
The reason she got in is that she's one of the only few actual conservatives left in the party.
DEI hire
Biggot
@@JazzmasterBlues Irrelevant.
More like IDF hire
@@JazzmasterBluesooh the racist card that didn't take long did it bigot 😮
One good thing is (nice arse)
Their ideology is very similar, but Kemi has a more energetic and intriguing personality; and also being led by a youngish Black woman can help challenge the conception that the Tories are a bunch of old white guys.
So all the old white people will vote Tory on that basis ?
Really it amazes me that we cannot openly talk about a big reason why Sunak lost the last election... clue is the fact his ancestry is Indian Hindu
@@carefreescotit’s funny how half the comments say he’s British.. obviously he’s not. But his losing the election has zero to do with that, the Tory’s were awful. They had half a dozen PM’s since Brexit, that’s a screaming disaster
Supporting Israel like true hypocrites thats why selected conservative
Sky news is already laying the ground to sow discord in the party.
Because KB is in the club and RJ isn’t, Simples!

Awful woman for the job
Olukemi Olufunto Adegoke is her real name. Why doesn't she use her real name? Is she ashamed of her family roots in Nigeria?
Why did the Brits pick her? My guess her teeth just made them think, "aw, look, she looks just like us"
Her big mouth reminds me of Americans.
The demise and consignment of The Tory Party too history has begun😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂
Imbeciles !!!
