The Wharfage opened at 11pm yesterday, after work to put in two 950kg scaffolding beams, spanning the River Severn beside the Iron Bridge, ran into the evening.

“In 2010, our economy faced a crisis.

It’s good to be reminded that this is a Government with a purpose and a mission. To bring to all British people the Conservative principles of fairness, opportunity, pride in our country and openness to the world.

As you can see, the months have etched themselves into my forehead…
 

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are just fifteen hundred yards away from the site of the worst terrorist atrocity seen in this country since 7/7.

Conference, as you've just heard in that typically passionate, powerful and inspiring speech from Ruth Davidson.... as Conservatives we are proud in our United Kingdom and resolute in support of the special bonds that bind us together.... 
 

Conference, good afternoon, it’s fantastic to be here in Manchester.
 
For our country to prosper and succeed in the future, we need to make it a country that works for everyone.
 
Education and skills are right at the very heart of that ambition.
