Badenoch is at it again. Claiming that 25,000-50,000 civil servants should be in jail. Given she's admitted to hacking another MP's email, it's pretty shaky ground for her. It's truly embarrassing for the Tories that she's even an MP, let alone running for the leadership. Kemi Badenoch on the civil service:'There's about 5 to 10% of them who are very, very bad - you know should be in prison bad - leaking official secrets, undermining their ministers, agitating.
