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

Like just this writing rubbish and thinking that because you've written a book, it's it's fine. And I was very pleased that I took such a hard line. at the time, because I think maybe if I'd known who she was, I might have been in a different mindset and thought, oh, well, you know, let me give her some space. But I didn't. And I was just very honest. And she got a lot of facts wrong as well.

Is Kemi Badenoch the Next Margaret Thatcher?

Loads and loads of terrible facts. So I am an enemy of critical race theory. It is not real equality. It is not even promoting the well-being of minorities. It is a way for the left to exploit minorities in order to do the thing they always want to do, which is the same socialism, Marxism, fighting the right. And it kills people. It destroys lives.

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

Yeah, it is. It's just identity politics. You know, we can give it all these fancy names, but it is just identity politics. And human beings will always form tribes. So society and the leadership, the political leadership, has to work hard to make sure that the tribe is the nation, not all these different groups. What word should we use instead of woke? I don't know. My word isn't catchy.

What is it? I thought progressive authoritarianism. It hasn't caught on. It has not caught on. I've done my best. It's just not snappy enough. Woke is very snappy.

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

And I say this as somebody who is both black and a woman. We all have multiple identities. I think that being a woman is so fundamental to who we are. The biology is so important to being a woman. It's so fundamental. And people don't think very hard about how biology impacts life. But the vulnerabilities that we have as women are very, very closely linked to our biology.

We're not as physically strong as men. We have all these experiences, whether it's menstruation or, you know, pregnancy. All of those things have an impact on how we live our lives. And that is reality. And for people to then say that you can just self-define as a woman, for me, just has no basis whatsoever in reality.

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

When I call myself a feminist, it is about equality, that I think women should be able to do the same things that men can do. It was about having equal agency, equal power. It was not an academic form of feminism. it was very much a lived experience form of feminism. I saw what my grandmother had to deal with, how she was treated.
