What do Conservatives Stand for ?
“We need to strengthen our communities by rebuilding responsibility. We need smaller government, a government that gets off our backs. We need business and individuals to flourish rather than being weighed down by the dead hand of the state. We need to simplify and clean up government, politics and politicians. We need to define ourselves not by what we have but by what we give to our local communities.” - Anne Milton
After David Cameron became leader, the Conservative Party published its statement of aims and values – Built to Last. In his foreword, David Cameron put “a responsibility revolution” at the heart of the modern Conservative Party’s mission:
“The country needs a new direction and new answers. I am clear about the new direction we must set for Britain. To meet the challenges of the Twenty-First Century, and to satisfy people’s aspirations today, this country needs a responsibility revolution.
“A revolution in personal responsibility – giving every individual the skills, the resources, and the confidence to take control of their life. A revolution in professional responsibility – giving all those who work in our public services the freedom to fulfil their vocation.
“A revolution in civic responsibility – giving our neighbourhoods and communities the power to shape their destinies, fight crime and improve the quality of life. A revolution in corporate responsibility – giving business the encouragement and the incentive to help enhance our environment and improve well-being.
“That is the mission of the modern Conservative Party: a responsibility revolution to create an opportunity society – a society in which everybody is a somebody, a doer not a done-for. Ours is a message of change, optimism and hope.” |
