The most important driver of deficit reduction over the period ahead will be the growth performance of our economy, and the speed with which we can get unemployment down
In Gordon Brown's Britain, if you're a single mother with two kids, earning £150 a week, the withdrawal of benefits and the additional taxes mean that for every extra pound you earn, you keep just 4p.
I am committed to doing everything in my power to secure an agreement that marks the decisive global shift towards combating climate change ... I believe all leaders have a responsibility to come together at Copenhagen to do this. We cannot afford to fail.
A UNITED States senator has written to Prime Minister Gordon Brown, demanding that the Lockerbie bomber should be returned to prison in Scotland.

If Gordon Brown has done a deal that would mean a French commissioner being in charge of the economic issues that affect Britain the most, then that could be a serious concern
Over recent weeks the discussion around Europe has mostly been about personalities, not policies, institutions.
The reason for this is simple and obvious: Obama's singular arrogance. Only arrogance can explain the way Obama has treated Gordon Brown. Only arrogance can explain the president's snubbing of Germany and repeated refusal to learn the proper protocol for greeting other world leaders.
Since January 2008, seven of the top dozen figures in al-Qaeda have been killed, depleting its reserve of experienced leaders and sapping its morale ... There is now an opportunity to inflict significant and long-lasting damage to al-Qaeda.
When it became clear that because of the various political considerations and varying views among the rest of the members (on Blair), then the prime minister (Gordon Brown) made the forceful step of proposing Catherine Ashton for the high representative's position

I have done more for the Turks and Caicos than Gordon Brown has done for England.
Tonight I can report that, methodically and patiently, we are disrupting and disabling the existing leadership of al Qaeda.
Today is a defining moment in the debate about Britain's debt - the moment when we see that Gordon Brown has not just lost control of the public finances but lost the economic argument about the debt crisis. The OECD said that more ambitious plans to get a grip on the deficit would, as Conservatives hav...
We know that from New York, Bali, Baghdad, Madrid, Mumbai, Peshawar and Rawalpindi to London, men and women -- Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Hindu, of every faith and none -- have been victims of international terrorism
I blame British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and the Obama administration for allowing this to happen. If the White House had wanted to stop this release they could have. So shame on Brown and shame on Obama.
It is because of the nature of the threat, and because around three quarters of the most serious plots the security services are now tracking in Britain have links to Pakistan, that it does not make sense to confine our defence against terrorism solely to actions inside the UK
Gordon Brown will tonight vigorously defend Britain's mission in Afghanistan and Pakistan, warning that al-Qaeda remains the biggest threat to Britain's national security
Make no mistake, al Qaeda has an extensive recruitment network across Africa, the middle east, western Europe and in the UK. And we know that there are still several hundred foreign fighters based in the Fata area of Pakistan and travelling to training camps to learn bomb making and weapons skills
Gordon Brown may try to pretend that JNF-UK is somehow insulated from the guilt of the JNF's activities in Israel and the occupied territoriesbut around the world and in particular in the Middle East his willingness to support the JNF 'brand' will be seen as evidence of the UK's support for Israel's opp...

It is great news that so many other economies are now growing, but it begs the question: why is Britain still in recession while the rest of the world recovers? Far from 'leading the world out of recession' as Gordon Brown has claimed, the evidence shows how his economic policies have failed.
Now, more than ever, there is no future in what was once called ‘splendid isolation’. When Britain is bold, when Britain is engaged, when Britain is confident and outward-looking, we have shown time and again that Britain has a power and an energy that far exceeds the limits of our geography, our popula...
