In stock, usually dispatched within 24 hours Description of Social ResponsibilityWith introductory essays by Jonathan Freedland of The Guardian and Ruth Lea of the Centre for Policy Studies, 'Social Responsibility: The Big Idea' comprises 33 speeches made by David Cameron between June 2005 and December 2006."It feels like a long time since I made the first of the speeches in this book, and much has changed since then. In particular, I believe we have shown that it is the Conservative Party that is setting the agenda on the most important challenges Britain faces for the future; whether it is on the environment, improving public services, enhancing social justice, supporting families, or giving greater priority to our society's sense of general well-being. Whatever the issue, however, there is one central belief that guides all we do, and that is the conviction that we're all in this together: that social responsibility - not state control - is the way to make life better in our country." - David Cameron, January 2007 "David Cameron's speeches make fascinating and refreshing reading... [He] has managed through his speeches, as well as his other political appearances, to reach out to a wider audience and make those who have tended to dismiss the Conservative Party as hard and old-fashioned listen to him." - Ruth Lea, Director of the Centre for Policy Studies "The words set out here do provide several clues as to why the Conservative leader has already made such an impact on British politics, sending a tremor through Labour's high command not felt in the years since Tony Blair took over in 1994." - Jonathan Freedland, columnist for The Guardian People who bought this book also bought The Corruption of the Curriculum by Shirley Lawes and Michele Ledda and Chris McGovern and Alex Standish and Simon Patterson and David Perks Title Information
