:05:26. > :05:31.would, they do not take risks, individual people in businesses do

:06:34. > :06:39.be positive, it will help consumers, consumers will get more self-

:06:42. > :06:46.Cameron was trying to do when he addressed his party conference this
:06:46. > :06:52.afternoon when he said, we can get out of this, we need to be more
:06:52. > :06:57.positive about the future. You are saying this is the right message?
:06:57. > :07:02.Absolutely. All we are hearing from the Bank of England, the financial
:07:02. > :07:08.sector, and a whole range of politicians across the world, who
:07:08. > :07:13.are just saying, this will be the long-term, it will take five, 10

:07:22. > :07:28.politicians talking up the economy, the better off we all will be,
:07:28. > :07:32.because actually the dealers listened to be doom and gloom.
:07:32. > :07:36.Finally, what about the political consequences of this doom and gloom
:07:37. > :07:40.- in Greece people have clearly lost faith in democratic government

:07:46. > :07:51.you think there is a danger that people turn to extreme solutions,
:07:51. > :07:59.as they did in Germany in the 1930s? Absolutely. When people feel
:07:59. > :08:04.secure -- insecure, they take control. That is what you do when
:08:04. > :08:11.you are under a lot of stress, you take control. You do not really
:08:11. > :08:17.necessary take control in an adaptive way. Going on the streets
:08:17. > :08:21.is a way of taking control. So we have to get people on board, engage
:08:21. > :08:27.them in the workplace, engage the population do think about positive
:08:27. > :08:33.things we can do to develop our economies. We can do this. Three or
:08:33. > :08:38.four years ago, before the crisis, we were growing. Yes, we did some
:08:38. > :08:42.wrong things, but the essence and the fundamentals of most of our
:08:42. > :08:46.economies is strong. As we heard, David Cameron
:08:46. > :08:52.attempted to swim against be tied by delivering a big dose of
:08:52. > :08:59.optimism in his speech. Des the tide. He said the government would
:08:59. > :09:04.stick to its debt reduction scheme but he said that Britain had been
:09:04. > :09:08.called off -- written off before and he called on the contrary to
:09:08. > :09:14.show some fight. Before David Cameron even entered
:09:14. > :09:17.the conference centre, it was clear he was going to mention one word in
:09:17. > :09:24.particular. Leadership was the chosen theme of the conference so
:09:24. > :09:26.he began by alluding to his stand on Libya and this year's
:09:26. > :09:33.intervention. Don't let anybody say that this was
:09:33. > :09:40.not in my -- our national interest. Good afraid Dave Semtex to the IRA,
:09:40. > :09:45.he was behind the shooting of a police officer. -- he gave Semtex
:09:45. > :09:49.to the IRA. I say let's be proud of what we did to help the Libyan
:09:49. > :09:55.people take back their country. But it was the economy which was
:09:55. > :09:59.uppermost in his mind. He insisted his government was right to cut the
:09:59. > :10:03.deficit, figures are borrowing more money would make the situation
:10:03. > :10:08.worse. -- because borrowing. He told the conference leadership was
:10:08. > :10:13.what was needed. I know how tough things are. I do not underestimate
:10:13. > :10:18.how are worried people feel, either about making ends meet or the state
:10:18. > :10:23.of the world economy, but the truth is that right now we need to be
:10:23. > :10:27.energised, not paralysed by gloom and fear. As for the current crisis
:10:27. > :10:31.in the eurozone, he gave his Conservative audience the lines if
:10:31. > :10:41.they wanted to hear. He said he would not let Britain be sucked in
:10:41. > :10:44.
:10:44. > :10:48.to end at Des End has bail-outs. -- endless bail-outs. When it comes to
:10:48. > :10:55.any European bail-out mechanism, Labour got us into this and I will
:10:55. > :11:01.make sure we get out of this. ended on a high note, rejecting the
:11:01. > :11:05.idea of Britain as a country in decline. We have the people and now
:11:06. > :11:12.we have a government that is free in this people, backing those ideas,
:11:12. > :11:16.lot -- so let's see an optimistic future, shows some fight, pull
:11:16. > :11:21.together and together lead Britain to better days ahead. David Cameron
:11:21. > :11:27.did not want his speech to be unremittingly gloomy. He wanted
:11:27. > :11:32.voters do have faith that they can make it through the bad times. But
:11:32. > :11:36.already the idea of an economic upturn by 2015 is looking
:11:36. > :11:41.optimistic and ministers are increasingly apprehensive that the
:11:41. > :11:44.road to recovery could be a long one.
:11:44. > :11:48.Iain Martin is a political columnist with the Daily Mail and I
:11:48. > :11:52.spoke to him from the conference just after that speech and asked
:11:52. > :11:57.him why David Cameron had put Britain's role in Libya at the top
:11:57. > :12:03.of the speech. You have to remember that David Cameron took a lot of
:12:03. > :12:07.criticism on the domestic front when he embarked on this adventure.
:12:07. > :12:12.Them back to all kinds of criticisms. I wrote Pete's --
:12:12. > :12:16.pieces myself questioning the wisdom of the intervention. He
:12:17. > :12:21.faced so much criticism on the home front but I think he was genuinely
:12:21. > :12:30.vindicated and he wants to show his critics but as far as he is
:12:30. > :12:35.concerned it works. It is not really surprising that he made such
:12:35. > :12:45.a big thing a bit in the speech. Most of the speech was devoted to
:12:45. > :12:49.the economy and it was interesting how incredibly up BT was. -- upbeat.
:12:49. > :12:54.It was a very strange speech from David Cameron today. I have seen
:12:54. > :12:59.him give some great speeches in his time. This was not one of them. At
:12:59. > :13:03.in its construction it was slightly shambolic but the most interesting
:13:03. > :13:07.passages were on the economy. The Tories in Britain have a real
:13:07. > :13:12.problem. They came into office essentially promising that if they
:13:12. > :13:17.cut the deficit that would restore Britain's economic fortunes and by
:13:17. > :13:21.now would be -- we would be seeing signs of growth. In fact things are
:13:22. > :13:26.heading in the opposite direction, growth today was downgraded for the
:13:26. > :13:29.first and second quarter again, so Britain is bumping along the bottom
:13:29. > :13:37.and heading possibly for a Japanese style period have lent the
:13:37. > :13:43.stagnation. What he was trying to do was to encourage the Brits to
:13:43. > :13:50.dig in and show some of that 1940 is can-do spirit of the Brits --
:13:50. > :13:55.the Blitz. I am not sure it worked. I think British people are quite
:13:55. > :14:05.cynicism about that and I think this beached failed because it did
:14:05. > :14:07.
:14:07. > :14:15.not lay out a serious programme of reforms and the kind of economic
:14:15. > :14:19.changes required to kick-start growth. -- the speech failed.
:14:19. > :14:29.phrase he kept using was leadership, that you can lead your community,
:14:29. > :14:34.
:14:34. > :14:39.Yes, the reason that the word leadership crops up so many times,
:14:39. > :14:46.I think it is something that is implied rather than pepping the
:14:46. > :14:52.speech with that. However, the Tory party in Britain, the Lib Dem
:14:52. > :14:56.coalition believe the leader of the coalition -- the opposition is
:14:57. > :15:01.extremely weak. The recent polling shows that the British public do
:15:02. > :15:06.not buy the idea of home as an alternative Prime Minister. So in
:15:06. > :15:11.those circumstances, Cameron wants to exploit that as much as possible
:15:11. > :15:16.and implied that he is the only head-and-shoulders above all of his
:15:16. > :15:22.rivals. Let's take a look at some of the

:20:40. > :20:45.Shangri-La in the middle of this wonderful city. The story Of the

:21:05. > :21:10.line into a unique park. I am a dreamer but I never dreamed it
:21:10. > :21:14.would be the successful. In some ways, I did not believe it until we

:21:29. > :21:35.Line project. Inspired by a rusting structure on the verge of being
:21:35. > :21:39.torn down. Here we wanted to design it to be interesting and unique and
:21:39. > :21:47.as unusual as the structure itself. I loved what it was like before we
:21:47. > :21:53.build anything up here. Photographs taken at the time and soon-to-be-
:21:53. > :22:01.published any book on the High Line, capture this wild landscape that
:22:01. > :22:06.the park architects made a part of their design. It has been winning
:22:06. > :22:11.awards from urban planners around the world. I think the High Line is
:22:11. > :22:15.the best new public space we have had in New York in a long time. It
:22:15. > :22:22.merges the idea of the streets, which is the quintessential New
