Opposition Conservative Party leader, Kemi Badenoch, has faulted the recognition of the State of Palestine by the UK government, describing as “absolutely disastrous”.
Badenoch warned that the UK would regret taking the decision.
“Disastrous. Absolutely disastrous. We will all rue the day this decision was made. Rewarding terrorism with no conditions whatsoever put in place for Hamas.
“It leaves hostages languishing in Gaza and does nothing to stop the suffering of innocent people caught in this war,” she said on X on Sunday.
She accused the Labour-led UK government of failing to fix “big problems” in British society.
“It is because Labour cannot fix the big problems in our society that they focus on discredited student union campaigns to appease the hard left.
“They cannot fix the NHS, so they push assisted suicide. They cannot create jobs for young people so they give them votes at 16. They cannot sort out immigration but they will recognise Palestine instead. And so on.
“This is the same man who paid £35bn of reparations to Mauritius along with the surrender of the Chagos islands. Everything we are seeing is a consequence of a Prime Minister who has no plan for the country and no judgement,” the conservative leaders stated, taking a swipe at PM Keir Starmer.
“He will spend the next four years delivering the hobby horses of the Labour left to stay in power and leave a HUGE mess for us to clean up,” she added.
