Kemi Badenoch becomes the new leader of the British Conservative Party

After four months of debate, Kemi Badenoch was elected Conservative leader on Saturday after former British leader Rishi Sunak said he would step down as Conservative Party leader. While the Conservatives have been friendly to cryptocurrencies in the past - proposing measures to ensure they are regulated as a financial activity and saying they want the country to become a cryptocurrency hub - the digital asset industry has not been mentioned in the party's leadership battle.
