Kemi Badenoch wins the Tory race, but can she really beat Labour? – Channel 4 News

Kemi Badenoch has become the new leader of the Conservative Party after defeating Robert Jenrick in a historic moment – the first black female leader of a major UK political party.

But does she have a chance to win the next election? Can she even last that long, given the Tories’ history of sacking leaders who didn’t deliver? Are the Labor Party the real winners here?

In this edition of the Political Furcast, Katie Newman is joined by former chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng, former Conservative MP Laura Farris, who lost her seat to the Liberal Democrats in July, and Luke Trill, chief executive of polling company More in Common.

Produced by Sylvia Maresca, Calum Fraser, Ka Yee Mak, Rob Thomson.
