country jobs grateful
I am very grateful to my colleagues for their support. There is a big job before us: to unite our party and the country, to negotiate the best possible deal as we leave the EU, and to make Britain work for everyone.
country numbers people
Obviously, given the objective that we have, what I would hope is that people would be able to see that actually we had reduced the numbers of people, the net number of people, coming into the country. People would, presumably, see that, but it's difficult to say how.
country opportunity thinking
I support selecting as many candidates as early as possible for lots of reasons. First of all I think it is important that every voter - regardless of where they live in the country - should have the opportunity to vote Conservative should they wish.
country years numbers
Starting with the highest-risk countries, and focusing on the route to Britain that is widely abused, student visas, we will increase the number of interviews to considerably more than 100,000, starting next financial year. From there, we will extend the interviewing programme further across all routes to Britain, wherever the evidence takes us.
country looks debate
I look forward to continuing the debate about Britain's future - in Parliament and across the country.
country technology track
Countries across the world are taking action now to help them track paedophiles and terrorists who abuse new technology to plot their horrific crimes.
country party together
Under my leadership the Conservative Party will come back together in the interests of the whole country.
country simple thinking
My pitch is very simple. I'm Theresa May and I think I'm the best person to be prime minister of this country.
anybody families time
I think if you talk to anybody who would like to have had children... I mean, you look at families all the time and you see there is something there that you don't have.
government matters voters
I think for voters what matters is the values that drive the government.
announce business busting equivalent estimate hours mean million moment officer raft reforms save
Today I can announce a raft of reforms that we estimate could save over 2.5 million police hours every year. That's the equivalent of more than 1,200 police officer posts. These reforms are a watershed moment in policing. They show that we really mean business in busting bureaucracy.
call nasty people
You know what some people call us: the nasty party.
determine elected local obviously people
Obviously local people will have their local voice through the police and crime commissioners that they've elected to determine their local policing.
constantly threat
Look, we constantly live looking at the issue of the threat of terrorism.
