Cameron's message: enough is enough
Updated on 05 May 2009
Conservative leader David Cameron launches his party's local election campaign by urging voters to send a message that "enough is enough".
In a speech at a community centre in the north-east of England, Cameron highlighted the "national significance" of the local elections, asking voters to "give this weak, useless and spineless Government a message it won’t forget”.
"With every day that passes, this Government is frankly running our country into the ground," he said. "Borrowing eye-watering amounts of money, presiding over social decline, letting our politics descend into the quagmire."
"I promise you this: they cannot go on forever. Change in our country will come and we can make that glorious day of change arrive all the sooner, if on June 4 you give this weak, useless and spineless Government a message it won't forget."
"With every Conservative vote, the message will be simple: enough is enough," he said.
Cameron pledged that the Conservatives would "build the NHS and improve it for everyone", fix our "broken society", and create a "modern, dynamic economy with the industries and jobs of the future".
