David Cameron: We are a ‘buccaneering and can do country’
The Telegraph reports that Mr Cameron will announced that working families with three or four-year-old children will get 30 hours of free childcare a week under a Conservative government. That trumps Labour’s 25 hours.
David Cameron has said “a good life is there for everyone willing to work for it” and that Britain is a “buccaneering and can do country” which goes down well.
He says we are “on the brink of something special” and says the Conservatives must be left to “finish what we have done”.
Good government starts with “great leadership” and “holding firm”. He says George Osborne held firm over cuts, Theresa May held firm on deportations and Iain Duncan Smith held firm over welfare reform.
“This is what we offer: Strong leadership not weakness”.
He makes a big point of Isis. He has met the families, he says, he has seen the reports and he needs the strength to make the big decisions. He is trying, again, to cast Ed Miliband is weak in the face of his strong prime ministerial duties.
