Kemi Badenoch says death threats intensified after Nadine Dorries book | Kemi Badenoch

Kemi Badenoch, the business secretary, has spoken of receiving death threats after the former Tory MP Nadine Dorries claimed she was aligned to a plot to control the top of the Conservative party. Badenoch said death threats had intensified since the publication of Dorries’ book The Plot: The Political Assassination of Boris Johnson, which claims a sinister cabal called “the movement” has “set out to control the destiny of the Conservative party” for 25 years. In an interview with the Times, Badenoch said: “She [Dorries] thinks she’s just writing stuff, but people who have that kind of mindset latch on to it. “If you get the unhelpful coalition of mental health issues and propensity to violence, then you read the Nadine Dorries conspiracy theory and decide you want to kill someone, it’s very, very nasty.” Badenoch is a political ally of Michael Gove, who is portrayed by Dorries as being part of the plot along with a Conservative aide, Dougie Smith, and the former adviser to Johnson, Dominic Cummings. However, the business secretary suggested in …

David Cameron dismisses Nadine Dorries claims of ‘plot’ for him to return as Tory leader | Politics News

David Cameron dismisses Nadine Dorries claims of ‘plot’ for him to return as Tory leader | Politics News

Lord Cameron has dismissed suggestions he could lead the Conservative Party once more, after former MP Nadine Dorries alleged there was a “plot” for him to succeed Rishi Sunak in the event of a general election loss. The foreign secretary told Times Radio that the former culture secretary – who is also the author of several fiction and non-fiction books – had “always been a much better novelist than a political forecaster”. “I think I’ll leave it at that,” he said. Lord Cameron was speaking while visiting the World Economic Forum in Davos, where he called for an “immediate pause” in the Israel-Gaza war so a “sustainable ceasefire” may follow. He also admitted that Britain’s relationship with Iran was “very difficult” owing to its support for the Houthi rebels, who have been targeting the UK’s commercial shipping operations in the Red Sea. In a post on X earlier this week, Ms Dorries, a Boris Johnson ally who wrote a book depicting a plot to oust him as prime minister, said: “I’m calling it now. “The …

Nadine Dorries launches furious three word attack on Rishi Sunak’s Rwanda ‘karma’ | Politics | News

Nadine Dorries launches furious three word attack on Rishi Sunak’s Rwanda ‘karma’ | Politics | News

Nadine Dorries has said “karma’s a b****” after dozens of Tory rebels defied Rishi Sunak over the Government’s Rwanda laws. Boris Johnson’s ally made the comment following a major rebellion of Tory MPs in the Commons on Tuesday night. She said: “By blocking it as Chancellor, Rishi Sunak was making sure Boris Johnson didn’t get the credit as prime minister for delivering that policy.” Mr Johnson offered his support to more than 60 right-wing MPs backing amendments they claim will beef up the safety of the Rwanda Bill by restricting individuals’ abilities to challenge being sent to the African nation and overriding international law. Former culture secretary Ms Dorries, who announced she was standing down as an MP in June last year in protest at her exclusion from Mr Johnson’s resignation honours list, insisted Mr Sunak was “totally opposed” to the Rwanda plan. She said: “He could not have been more opposed.” In his first major speech of 2023, Mr Sunak twice pledged to “stop the boats” – a commitment that became one of his …

Sunak is ‘stooge’ put in place by Cummings, claims Johnson in Nadine Dorries book | Boris Johnson

Boris Johnson has said Rishi Sunak is a “stooge” put in place by his former senior adviser Dominic Cummings, according to the former cabinet minister Nadine Dorries. Johnson said: “I heard that Cummings has said he started to plot to get rid of me in January 2020. The plot was always to get Rishi in. I just couldn’t see it at the time. It’s like this Manchurian candidate, their stooge.” Johnson’s attack on Sunak was made in a series of interviews with his staunch ally Dorries for her book The Plot: The Political Assassination of Boris Johnson, which was published on Thursday. Cummings was sacked by Johnson in late 2020 after a bitter falling-out between the two men. Johnson also said the Conservatives are “drifting into defeat” under Sunak. The former prime minister told Dorries the current government was losing voters in “red wall” seats that had voted for Brexit, where he said people were going back to supporting Labour. skip past newsletter promotion Get the day’s headlines and highlights emailed direct to you every …

Dorries claims Tory cabal called the ‘movement’ brought down Johnson | Nadine Dorries

Nadine Dorries has claimed in her new book that the Conservatives have been controlled for 20 years by a cabal known as the “movement”, which orchestrated the end of Boris Johnson’s tenure as prime minister. The former culture secretary has alleged the group consists of levelling up secretary Michael Gove, Johnson’s former chief of staff Dominic Cummings and an adviser called Dougie Smith. Dorries, a staunch ally of Johnson, said the cabal ousted the former prime minister and also “brought down Iain Duncan Smith as party leader, created havoc for Theresa May and undermined Liz Truss”. The former MP’s book, The Plot: the Political Assassination, is being serialised in the Mail. According to excerpts in the paper, Dorries wrote that after Johnson made Cummings his chief of staff, the so-called “movement” instigated its plan to replace the prime minister after his December 2019 election victory as he had already served his purpose by winning an 80-seat majority. A source told Dorries: “It was plainly obvious that Friday morning, the day after the election victory in …

Labour takes Nadine Dorries’ former seat in Mid Bedfordshire byelection | Labour

Labour have won the Mid Bedfordshire byelection, overturning a huge majority and delivering a significant blow to Rishi Sunak’s hopes of holding on to power at the next general election – expected to be in 2024. Alistair Strathern takes the parliamentary seat vacated by the former culture secretary Nadine Dorries, beating the candidate hoping to hold it for the Conservatives, Festus Akinbusoye. Strathern overturned a majority of 24,664 – believed to be the greatest such result at a byelection since at least 1945. It boosts the leader of the opposition, Keir Starmer, who will see this victory – and that in another Tory safe seat in Tamworth on the same night – as further evidence his party is poised to return to government after similar byelection victories in recent months. Strathern also held off competition from the Liberal Democrats, who refused to cede ground to Labour, insisting they had a genuine chance of winning the seat themselves. Speaking as the results were announced, Starmer said: “Voters across Mid Bedfordshire, Tamworth and Britain want a Labour …

Byelections live: Tory seats under threat as voting begins to replace Nadine Dorries and Chris Pincher | Byelections

My colleague Peter Walker has this report on the byelections today. The Conservatives are defending large majorities but given Rishi Sunak’s dismal poll ratings, the other parties have a chance to take the seats. Voting has opened in Mid Bedfordshire and Tamworth in byelections seen as crucial in gauging the electoral fate of Rishi Sunak, but difficult to predict. The Conservatives are defending majorities of nearly 25,000 in Mid Bedfordshire and close to 20,000 in Tamworth, which would normally point to an easy hold. However, their chances will be hampered by the party’s dismal poll ratings and the records of departing MPs. The Mid Bedfordshire vote was triggered by the resignation of the former culture secretary Nadine Dorries in protest at her lack of a peerage from Boris Johnson’s resignation honours. Her protracted departure drew attention to her seemingly limited involvement in local affairs. In Tamworth, Chris Pincher, the former deputy chief whip, stepped down from his seat after losing an appeal against an eight-week suspension from parliament for groping two men at a private …

The good folk of Mid Beds appear to be missing an active MP. Where is Nadine Dorries? | Marina Hyde

If you are a Mid Bedfordshire resident living in mould-infested rental accommodation with an asthmatic child, should you contact Nadine Dorries’s theatrical agent? The question arises – theoretically speaking – after a glance at Nadine’s social media profile, which reads: “Recovering secretary of state. Sunday Times bestseller. TalkTV Friday Night with Nadine 8pm. Daily Mail Tuesday columnist.” Agent details are listed. But has she missed something? Has madam, in the rush to announce herself as entertainment’s hottest multi-hyphenate, omitted a string to her bow? Spokesmodel for a biodynamic shellac brand, perhaps? Creative genius behind a range of steelcapped espadrilles? Gaffepreneur? People in Mid Bedfordshire seem to think a more significant line of work has been left out, what with the fact Nadine Dorries is still their member of parliament. Nominally, yes – but meaningfully? Unclear. Nadine last spoke in the Commons more than a year ago, and last voted back in April. As you may know, she didn’t manage to get the peerage Boris Johnson had promised her in his resignation honours back in early …
