David
Cameron’s New Year Message for 2014
1 January 2014
It’s a New Year – and for Britain
there can only be one New Year’s resolution—to stick to the long-term plan that
is turning our country around.
When we came to office, our
economy was on its knees.
Three and a half years later, we
are turning a corner.
We see it in the businesses that
are opening up, the people who are getting decent jobs, the factories that are
making British goods and selling them to the world again.
The plan is working.
That’s why this year, 2014, we
are not just going to stick to the plan – we are going to redouble our efforts
to deliver every part of it, to benefit the whole country and secure a better
future for everyone.
We’ll continue with the vital
work on the deficit.
We’ve reduced it by a third
already, and this year we will continue that difficult work, to safeguard our
economy for the long-term, to keep mortgage rates low and to help families
across Britain.
We’re going to keep on doing
everything possible to help hardworking people feel financially secure, cutting
income taxes and freezing fuel duty.
We’ll keep on working even harder
to create more jobs, whether that’s through investment in our roads and
railways, lower jobs taxes, or more help for Britain’s amazing small
businesses.
Those who run our small
businesses are heroes and heroines, they are the backbone of our economy and we
are supporting them every step of the way.
We are going to keep on with our
vital work on welfare and immigration too.
We’ve already capped welfare and
cut immigration, and this year, we’ll carry on building an economy for people
who work hard and play by the rules.
And last but not least – we’re
going to keep on delivering the best schools and skills for our children and
young people, so that when they leave education they have a real chance to get
on in life.
So this is a vital year for our
economy.
And 2014 is also an important
date in the history of the United Kingdom.
The referendum vote will be the
biggest decision Scotland has ever been asked to make.
The outcome matters to all of us,
wherever we live in the UK.
This is not a vote for the next
few years, but a vote that could change our country forever.
Our family of nations is at its
best when we work together with shared interest and common purpose.
So this year, let the message go
out from England, Wales and Northern Ireland to everyone in Scotland. We want
you to stay – and together we can build an even stronger United Kingdom for our
children and grandchildren.
So that’s what our long-term plan
is about, and we will stick to that plan this year.
To all the members of our Party
who are watching this, I want to thank you for everything you’ve done to help
this past year—the doors you’ve knocked on, the leaflets you have delivered, the
campaigning you have done to support our Party.
I’d like to wish everyone a happy New Year – and best wishes for 2014. |
