Addressing Conservative Party Conference tomorrow, Prime Minister
is expected to say:
"So let us do our duty by Britain. Let us shape
up and give the country the government it needs.
"For beyond this hall, beyond the gossip pages of the newspapers,
and beyond the streets, corridors and meeting rooms of
Westminster, life continues – the daily lives
of ordinary working people go on.
"And they must be our focus today.
“Not worrying about our job security, but theirs. Not addressing
our concerns, but the issues, the problems, the challenges, that
concern them. Not focusing on our future, but on the future
of their children and their grandchildren – doing everything we
can to ensure their tomorrow will be better than our today.
"That is what I am in politics for. To make a difference. To
change things for the better. To hand on to the next generation a
country that is stronger, fairer and more prosperous.
"None of this will be easy. There will be obstacles and
barriers along the way.
But it has never been my style to hide from a
challenge, to shrink from a task, to retreat
in the face of difficulty, to give
up and turn away.
"And it is when tested the most that we reach deep
within ourselves and find that our capacity to rise to the
challenge before us may well be limitless.
"That is the story of our party. That is the story of
our country. And that is the resolve and determination we
need as we turn to face the
future today. So let us go forward together. Let
us fulfil our duty to Britain."
