The US is our closest ally but even close allies can disagree.

All in all, we will cut the cost of delivering and therefore buying a new home by up to £50,000.

Because many of us have worked in business, we understand that time spent filling in a tax return or hanging on an HMRC helpline steals time away from your business, your family – the very reason you work so hard.

Our task just got bigger. We will set out our plans line by line – every bill, every regulation, every chapter.

We face a Prime Minister that wants to return Britain to an imagined past – a socialist fever dream of the 1970s.

We’re ‘all in’ for growth and we will legislate to sweep away the blockers to getting the infrastructure our country needs built.

Countries on the rise have the best infrastructure and connectivity to the world but our national hub airport is being held back.

What we’re trying to do is get Britain to be prosperous again. Give people hope that their future’s going to be better.

I think that’s a pretty fair summary in all honesty.

Our first budget will be a tax-cutting budget and we will get the country growing again really fast.

I refuse to accept for a single moment that the country of Brunel and Bazalgette, of the vaccine taskforce and the Mulberry harbours, has to sit around waiting until the 2040s to get a third runway built.

No one else is coming to save our economy. Only we can inject reality, tell the hard truths and make this a country we are proud to hand on to the next generation.

Griffith says he is comfortable making unpopular decisions.

Griffith confirms he wants to cut the size of the civil service back to what it was in 2016.

We will have to be the ones to make the hard choices and tackle the debt, to help our country live within its means.

No country in history has ever taxed its way to prosperity. So we will cut taxes, but only when we can afford to do so.

I didn’t come here to raise taxes. I came to lower them.

We will get full square behind that and the government should do that right now.

The Tories want to deliver cheaper homes, lower taxes, and less red tape.

We are going to keep it.

Someone, sooner or later, has to get serious about getting this country growing again.

There is a moral mission to get our economy growing, give people opportunity, as well as let people keep more of what they earn. It’s pretty simple. We’re Conservative, this is what we stand for.

Only the Conservatives will make the tough choices on welfare and public spending to get Britain's finances under control.

Our construction and production sectors are shrinking, unemployment is up under Labour, and we’ve got the highest Government borrowing rates in almost 30 years.
