Kemi Badenoch says Andy Burnham will make the same mistakes as former Conservative governments by “making announcements before having a plan ready”. During a press conference in London on Monday (29 June), the leader of the opposition was questioned by The Independent’s Millie Cooke on claims that the UK is heading into a “summer of chaos” under the Labour Party. Asked if the benchmark for such chaos was established by the last Tory government, Ms Badenoch replied: “We paid for those things with our biggest defeat ever in our 200-year history, and we have learned from our mistakes.” “Many of the things that went wrong were making announcements before having the plan ready, that is what Burnham is doing again. It would be wrong of me to ignore that.”
