numbers what-matters people
Well can I just make a point about the numbers because people talk a lot about police numbers as if police numbers are the holy grail. But actually what matters is what those police are doing. It's about how those police are deployed
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 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.
cutting numbers impact
We are seeing, we have seen in the last figures a significant drop in the number of net migrants coming into the United Kingdom. So we are cutting out abuse, we've restricted the number of economic - non-EU economic migrants. We're cutting out abuse across the student visa system, particularly, and we're having an impact.
europe numbers people
As we conduct our negotiations it must be a priority to allow British companies to trade with the single market in goods and services but also, to regain more control of the numbers of people who are coming here from Europe.
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.
cameron david growing led time
Now there is a growing feeling, it's something that David Cameron led on actually, he said this some time ago, that MPs should not be voting on their own pay.
