Bomb for Badenoch

Last week, Kemi Badenoch, the Nigerian-born leader of the UK's opposition, experienced firsthand the inherent limitations of nativity transplantation. Prime Minister Keir Starmer made fun of her, saying that she had declared herself the savior of Western civilization in a desperate attempt to gain attention. An underhand was used. And the takeaway is that, despite your best efforts to fit in, you cannot become more or even more like the locals to the point where you lose sight of your own roots.

Since Badenoch is the head of the Conservative Party in the United Kingdom, she is essentially the shadow premier and is only one election away from being the leader. Her tough attitude in support of British and, consequently, Western interests, however, made her controversial. She is well known for disparaging Nigeria and denying her ancestry.

She opposes Britain and other colonial powers making reparations to African countries.

Because the rhetoric has been outsourced to a Black person, she is perceived by those who regularly encounter the sick as a tool in the hands of racist Britain to gaslight their concerns by expressing racism without having to bear the burden of being labeled racist. She defends British society against accusations of racism.

She recently suggested extending the number of years of residency needed to become eligible for British citizenship. To put it briefly, she has been more traditional British than her ancestors.

She and Starmer argued about the UK's projected defense budget increase at Prime Minister's Questions (PMQ) in the Commons.

Starmer said the UK will reallocate aid funds to raise military spending to 2.5 percent of GDP by 2027, or £13.4 billion, ahead of his trip to Washington to negotiate with US President Donald Trump, who has been pressuring European nations to increase their defense spending.

When Badenoch asked him how much exactly Defence Secretary John Healey claimed could be computed as £6 billion when inflation is taken into account, the prime minister retorted.

In response to Starmer's proposal, Badenoch said he should have followed her advise and used foreign aid funds for defense.

"I am happy that the prime minister heeded my proposal to reduce the aid budget, which I recommended over the weekend.

"I've never received a quicker response from (him)," she remarked. Subtly but brutally dismissively, the prime minister responded, saying, "I'm going to have to let the leader of the opposition down gently. She was completely absent from my thoughts.

"She's appointed herself savior of the western civilization in a desperate search for relevance," he remarked, adding, "I was so busy over the weekend I didn't even see her proposal."
Starmer has held British knighthood since 2014, even before he entered parliament. You could guess where he’s coming from with Badenoch’s alleged self-appointment as saviour of western civilisation. Cheeky nationalism!
