What has front bench experience done for us?

A common refrain regarding Tory leadership candidate Kemi Badenoch is that she lacks front bench experience. I ask this one question for consideration: what has it done for you lately?

Front bench experience has:
1. Landed us in a constitutional crisis over Brexit which took four years to ‘resolve’,
2. Resulted in sluggish growth and stagnant wages since 2008,
3. Granted one million visas last year to March, and given us an unresolved illegal migrant crisis,
4. Left us with the highest tax burden and national debt since the war,
5. Left the armed services in their worst state of readiness since the Napoleonic era,
6. Seen three prime ministers come and go, none of whom lost an election,
7. Not resolved or even partially resolved the ongoing housing crisis,
8. Allowed the NHS to balloon to an even greater albatross than it already was, without reforming any of its malaise,
9. Given us a furlough scheme riddled with fraud,
10. Put us in lockdown while those in charge frolicked with their mistresses (Hancock) or broke their own rules (‘Boris’, Starmer and Sunak),
11. Not improved our infrastructure and
12. Not even defended the little girl’s room.

This list isn’t even comprehensive, and if I can get such a list of catastrophic failures, do you think Starmer can’t? What’s the retort going to be? “This time will be different”?

It’s time for the Tories to take stock of where they are because the Labour bogeyman won’t save them forever.

Ask yourself this regarding the front bench experience:
1. Are we more prosperous as a result?
2. Are we safer?
3. Are we better prepared for the future?

In my estimation, the Tories have achieved none of these three. The leadership we have is not working, and we can’t go on like this.
