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

We have got to start championing and defending those people who can't speak for themselves, those who are vulnerable. The conversation cannot just be about the economic. The social and the cultural are linked with the economic, that you can't split them. If you have behaviors like that, it is going to affect your economy. It's going to affect what is being taught in schools.

It's going to affect people's attitudes to work. It's going to affect so much. So you've got to look at it across the board. And that is what I am changing with my party. It's not going to happen overnight. So I get lots of criticism of you haven't changed anything. It's, you know, it's been four weeks. I think I have four and a half years to do this, maybe a bit less. But there is a plan.

But you have to do things systematically and properly. I'm a systems analyst. I don't rush into things. And I think this is the biggest challenge for people. Having an engineer and a systems analyst in charge rather than a politician or a lawyer who just talks, talks, talks. I'm not somebody who starts with the rhetoric.

It's going to require a lot of changes. In my view, it's going to need a change of government. It's going to need a change in the way that we police. And people will say, oh, but we just have the conservatives and conservatives didn't do this or that. But there are different types of conservatism. This is a new type. And it's something that's going to be a lot more muscular.

And we need to start showing that if you behave this way, there will be consequences. And this is where the argument about two-tier policing comes from, where people think that some people are allowed to get away with bad behavior or some groups are allowed to get away with bad behavior. It seems that way. And other groups aren't. It is a confusion that has come from...

The interpretations of the Equality Act, where people believe that there are protected groups. There are no protected groups in the Act. There are protected characteristics. Misapplication of the law and abuse by those who deliberately misinterpret it is part of the problem. So the police think that there are protected groups. There are not.

Honestly with Bari Weiss

Everybody is protected on the basis of those characteristics. And that's one of the things that I want us to start looking at. Do we need to change these laws or do we just need to... find a way to make sure that we remove some of the levers and the mechanisms that are allowing these differences in terms of the experience of policing.
