country independence world
Britain is characterised not just by its independence but, above all, by its openness. We have always been a country that reaches out. That turns its face to the world...
country fighting europe
It [European Union] has kept the peace in Europe. Countries used to fight and now they talk. We should be attached to that.
independence britain openness
Britain is characterized not just by its independence but, above all, by its openness.
want unions britain
I want the European Union to be a success. And I want a relationship between Britain and the EU that keeps us in it.
lying unique flames
Over the years, Britain has made her own, unique contribution to Europe. We have provided a haven to those fleeing tyranny and persecution. And in Europe's darkest hour, we helped keep the flame of liberty alight. Across the continent, in silent cemeteries, lie the hundreds of thousands of British servicemen who gave their lives for Europe's freedom.
country voice challenges
I want to be the voice of change and hope. I want to confront the big challenges this country faces.
war writing europe
From Caesar's legions to the Napoleonic wars. From the Reformation, the Enlightenment and the industrial revolution to the defeat of nazism. We have helped to write European history, and Europe has helped write ours.
christmas opportunity years
Christmas gives us the opportunity to pause and reflect on the important things around us - a time when we can look back on the year that has passed and prepare for the year ahead.
strong character independent
I know that the United Kingdom is sometimes seen as an argumentative and rather strong-minded member of the family of European nations. And it's true that our geography has shaped our psychology. We have the character of an island nation - independent, forthright, passionate in defence of our sovereignty.

In a race for limited resources, it is the energy efficient that will win the race
race numbers focus
In a global race, can we really justify the huge number of expensive peripheral European institutions? Can we justify a commission that gets ever larger? Can we carry on with an organisation that has a multibillion pound budget but not enough focus on controlling spending and shutting down programmes that haven't worked?
love-is law people
When people's love is divided by law, it is the law that needs to change.
people would-be unions
If we left the European Union, it would be a one-way ticket, not a return. So we will have time for a proper, reasoned debate. At the end of that debate you, the British people, will decide.
