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

Where are the protests about Gaza in Saudi Arabia or the UAE? Because they are very muscular about what they believe people can and cannot do. they are able to control that. People there feel the same way, but they're not protesting. And yes, some of it is about not having that right. But it's also, it's about keeping certain views out of the mainstream.

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

We need to have our own version of what I call muscular liberalism, where we say these sorts of behaviors are unacceptable. And if you carry them out, you will be punished. And the big question that my speech was trying to answer is how does a creed like liberalism, which is about accepting and tolerating, how does it deal with accepting and tolerating things that want to destroy it?

If you say, yes, of course, we're going to accept and we're going to tolerate, and something says, okay, fine, I want to destroy it. But it can't be tolerant of intolerance. Exactly. And too many people just stop at the accept everything, tolerate everything. They don't know how to defend their values. And that's what I want the Conservative Party to start doing. We can't just be managers.

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.

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

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.

Honestly with Bari Weiss

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.
