Remember how it felt. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
Businesses closing. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
People losing their jobs. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:09 | |
Families left without a pay packet at the end of the month. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:15 | |
Government borrowing on a scale not seen since the War. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
After 13 long years of Labour, Britain was down. | 0:00:20 | 0:00:25 | |
But we weren't out. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:29 | |
Accepting defeat was never an option. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:32 | |
Instead, we did what British people do. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
We rolled up our sleeves and got stuck in. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
Small businesses opened early and worked late. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
People took a chance and built something of their own. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
Young people learnt new skills so they could get on in life. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
And, working together, we began to clear up Labour's mess, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:54 | |
reducing the deficit and facing up to the debts they left behind. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
After four short years, | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
there are now 400,000 more businesses in our country. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
1.8 million more people are in work, | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
taking home a pay packet and providing for their families. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:13 | |
And youth unemployment is falling at its fastest annual rate | 0:01:14 | 0:01:18 | |
since records began. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
Together we are building a stronger, healthier economy, | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
so our children can grow up without mountains of debt | 0:01:24 | 0:01:28 | |
and are free to reach their potential. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
And if we keep going, | 0:01:31 | 0:01:33 | |
keep working through our long-term economic plan, | 0:01:33 | 0:01:36 | |
then a better, brighter future lies ahead. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:40 | |
There is still more to do, but if we keep going | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
we can secure a better future for Britain and everyone within it. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
Let me tell you what that means. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
Hard-working families rewarded with a meaningful job | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
and a decent standard of living, because their taxes are low | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
and our debts are being paid down. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
People with the security of owning their own home | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
and the financial independence to enjoy retirement. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
An economy that's stable, so hard-working taxpayers aren't | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
afraid of losing their job or their home or their savings. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
An education system that helps our children reach their potential | 0:02:16 | 0:02:20 | |
and succeed in life. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
And a Britain that stands even taller in the world - | 0:02:23 | 0:02:25 | |
a stronger country, a prouder nation. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:29 | |
So back our plan today | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
and help us secure that better future for Britain. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 |
