Honestly with Bari Weiss
Is Kemi Badenoch the Next Margaret Thatcher?

When really what should have happened was I should have kept going till I was 18 and I'd probably have gotten the full thing. And going to the UK and starting at this college, It was a completely different experience. I call it the poverty, the soft bigotry of low expectations, the poverty of ambition. Why do you want to study medicine? You can do this other thing instead.

And so because they didn't care about grades, I stopped caring about grades when I'd been a straight-A student. And I realize now just how tough it is for so many people who may not have families that push them And then they go to a school where no one is pushing them to fulfill their potential. And it's so unfair.

Well, I joined the party because because I thought it would be a fun thing to do. So I had finished university. A lot of my friends had just dispersed all over the country, in fact, all over the world. And I thought, well, If I join, I might meet some new people who are very like-minded. So I was already a conservative before joining the party. But how did I become a conservative?

It was those experiences at school, comparing them to the experiences I had growing up, and also just the rise of identity politics I'd seen then. And I knew that this was not a good thing. I grew up in a very multicultural society. But everybody looked the same. Everybody looked the same. And yet there are 300 different languages. There are all sorts of different customs and norms.

And it's very hard for people to get along. And when I heard people say, oh, this bad thing happened to me because I'm black or because I'm brown. No, it's not. It's just it's just a bad person. Not everything is. is about race. I'm a very colorblind person.

And the Labour Party, in my view, was quite race-obsessed and was quite keen on labeling lots of other people in a way that I thought was unfair. And I thought, I don't like this identity politics business. We need to find ways to bring people together not to tear them apart.

And if you don't have a dominant culture that brings everyone together where there's a lot of diversity, I think you run into problems because it just becomes different groups competing over resources. And that's very dangerous if you want to have a cohesive society.
