Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch has criticized those within the Conservative party who have left its ranks, likening their actions to a “psychodrama.” She referred to the departing MPs as “drama queens” and suggested their departures were more about personal attention than genuine policy disagreements. Badenoch stated that the focus should remain on delivering for the country rather than engaging in internal party theatrics. Her comments come amid a period of internal debate and defections within the Conservative party, with some members expressing dissatisfaction with the current direction. She emphasized the need for unity and a commitment to the government’s agenda, urging colleagues to prioritize substantive work over what she perceives as unnecessary public displays of discontent.
