Conservative Party leadership candidate Kemi Badenoch delivers a speech during the Conservative Party Conference at the International Convention Centre in Birmingham, October 2, 2024
Focus on equal access to assisted death rather than risks of legalisation for oppressed groups wrongheaded, MPs and campaigners say
TORY leadership hopeful Kemi Badenoch distributed a pamphlet at her party’s conference that had been co-written by a councillor suspended by the Conservatives for posting Islamophobic tweets.
Waltham Forest Councillor John Moss tweeted that “every 11-year-old girl” should be frightened of Islam in 2015.
He was suspended from the party but readmitted after a month later after completing “diversity and anti-bias training.”
