numbers style promise
The promise to take back control of our borders. I will end free movement, introduce an Australian-style points-based system for immigration, and bring numbers down. With my leadership, it will be delivered.
teacher different bigs
The big shift in approach on education that we are taking - which is different from what happened before - is that we trust teachers and we trust heads.
children mean home
Children in dysfunctional homes at risk of abuse are kept in danger for too long because politically correct rules mean we won't challenge unfit parents.
school outstanding
Many more schools can be outstanding.
cutting nhs people
The promise to use the money we currently send to Brussels and invest it instead on the priorities of the British people - principally in the NHS - and to cut VAT on domestic fuel. With my leadership, it will be delivered.
children school years
One of the problems we have is children are not in school long enough in the day and during the year.
jobs unions european-union
One of the things I know about the European Union is that the European Union can destroy jobs.
jobs wall father
I know what it's like to see someone lose their job as a result of the European Union. I saw my father lose his job, I saw his business go to the wall, I saw 24 people who he employed also lose their jobs.
father fishing unions
My father had a fishing business in Aberdeen destroyed by the European Union and the Common Fisheries Policy, the European Union.
bumps unions deals
If we leave the European Union, yes there will be bumps in the road, inevitably, but we will be in a better position to deal with them.
destiny thinking giving
I think that what we have heard from the Remain campaign throughout this whole referendum have been dire warnings of the terrible consequences of the British people just taking control of our own destiny.And, the truth is, if we vote to Leave we will be in an economically stronger position. We will be able to take back some of the money that we currently give to the European Union and we can invest it in our priorities.
children school years
Children themselves know they are being cheated. Ultimately we owe it to our children. They are in school for 190 days a year. Every moment they spend learning is precious. If a year goes by and they are not being stretched and excited, that blights their life.
teacher school class
Teachers themselves know if there's a colleague who can't keep control or keep the interest of their class, it affects the whole school.
nhs important want
Our most important public service will always be the NHS. And I want to say something clear and unambiguous about the future of the health service.
