Tories Hire Ex-Harasser to Fight Extremism | Glasgow News

Kemi Badenoch’s controversial pick of Joshua Bonehill-Paine—a man convicted in 2016 of racially aggravated harassment targeting Jewish Baroness Luciana Berger—to advise the Tories on tackling radicalization has sparked outrage. Critics, including Labour leaders and Reform UK, call it a disgrace and question Badenoch’s judgment, with some labeling him a former neo-Nazi.

Badenoch insists this reflects a new, more inclusive Conservative Party willing to embrace redemption over retribution.
