'Embarrassing' Chocolate Bar Handed Out at Tory Party Conference - Liverpool Echo

A printing error on chocolate bars quoting Kemi Badenoch added to the Conservative Party's troubles amid poor polling and leadership uncertainty, poll shows half oppose Badenoch's leadership.

  • This past week the Conservative Party handed out a chocolate bar at its Manchester conference that misspelled 'Britain' as 'Britian', bearing Kemi Badenoch's signed quote.
  • Organisers blamed a 'printing error' and pulled the chocolate bars from goodie bags after Tory party organisers handed them to journalists and supporters.
  • A video and images shared on X amplified the mistake after LBC journalist Natasha Clark flagged the typo and photos of sparse conference rooms circulated widely.
  • Ms Badenoch's attempt to use the conference to boost her standing was undermined by the gaffe and wider conference gloom, while a YouGov poll of 652 Conservative members shows 46% back her and 50% oppose her leadership.
  • Some senior Tories publicly urged right-of-centre unity, calling for closer ties with Reform UK as Andrew Rosindell pushed to 'unite together' against the left, while YouGov polling shows 64% back an electoral pact.
