I say to him, stick to the plan.
00:01
I mean, I think the Prime Minister is a good man,
00:03
doing a great job at a difficult time.
00:05
We saw last week that his economic plans are coming right,
00:10
you know, with a 0.6% growth, much more than people expected,
00:13
more than the IMF expected.
00:15
And you've got this situation now where you can see inflation
00:18
coming down, I think interest rates are going to come down,
00:20
taxes are coming down, the economy is growing.
00:23
And I think you've got a very clear choice opening up.
00:25
And that's what happens as you get to the end of a parliament.
00:27
It stops being a referendum on the government every day
00:30
and it starts being a choice between two teams.
00:33
And you've got a choice now where you can see one team,
00:35
the blue team, with a very clear plan to secure Britain's future
00:39
with a strong economy, with growth and jobs.
00:42
And you've got a Labour Party that's just praying that people
00:44
don't look at that and they sort of think about the Prime Minister
00:48
that only lasted 49 days and the problems and all the rest of it.
00:51
And you can almost feel Labour desperate for the election now
00:55
because the longer actually we have between now and the election,
00:59
the more you're going to see the plan is working.
