I know people are worried about the impact of the conflict in the Middle East on their cost of living, which has been too high for too long and it has added pressure on British businesses.
We build on that, but it is not easy. It is not easy in a world in which you see global conflict, increasing dangers.
This is the way we start to build new hope and advance the working people of this country.
I’m determined Britain has a lead role in harnessing this technology to drive more jobs, better public services, and growth that’s UK-wide.
