Easy Mode
For some politicians, the game is always too hard
“I’m thrilled that we’re talking about this,” Kemi Badenoch told Robert Peston, a look of pure horror on her face. The subject was the Conservative Party’s immigration policy, which she may or may not understand.
A regular line from people on the left of British politics is that those on the right do politics on “easy mode”, helped by a supportive press that isn’t constantly trying to catch them out, supported by wealthy donors. If this week is anything to go by, easy mode is still not easy enough.
Excellent, Rob.
