PM’s key quotes on the ‘big issues’

Respect

"…..it is about how we change not just the law, but the culture of our country to put the law abiding majority back in charge of their local communities."

Health

"’The NHS and our education system are today going through the most systematic process of reform since the war."

Education

"…the system will finally be opened up to real parent power. All schools will be able to have Academy-style freedoms"

Welfare

"We want to give people the chance to fulfil their potential. We want to raise people’s expectations and their self-belief, by giving them the tools to help themselves."

Climate Change

"Evidence on climate change is getting stronger, and not weaker…even those that have such doubts can see that there are real issues to do with energy security, energy supply, the diversity of energy sources."

Africa

"There can be no excuse, no defence, no justification for the plight of millions of our fellow beings in Africa today. That is the simple message from the report published today."

European Union

"This is a union of values, of solidarity between nations and people, of not just a common market in which we trade but a common political space in which we live as citizens."
