Badenoch Denies Iron Dome Comparison Despite Party Materials

Kemi Badenoch said she did not compare the proposed Britannia Shield air-defence system to Israel's Iron Dome, a short-range missile interceptor. Yet a Conservative press release called it 'in essence a British Iron Dome,' and Badenoch wrote in The Sun it was 'modelled on Israel's Iron Dome.' She told BBC Radio 4 newspapers created the description.
