speech for gordon brown

Ladies and Gentlemen: honourable speaker, for too long now has the voice of dissent been heard in this grand hall, the last administration served only to divide us and ignite the fire of many disagreements, steeped in controversy the unity that held us together has faded dramatically. Now comes the time for that unity to shine through again as we stand bold against the perils which face us today. I promise you all as I have promised the British people, that you will have a breath of fresh air, that shall rejuvenate this great country and pull us all closer together.

I stand for the best interests of Britain, the Iraq war which has served only to divide us and all that we have strived for, it is an issue I promise to tackle with a bold new perspective, in order to bring our troops back home as soon as possible and stop the mindless bloodshed that haunts humanity today. Instead of stubbornly prolonging these massive drain on the resources of the British people; we shall work towards withdrawing our troops through a comprehensive schedule. Iraq must be divided into four sovereign states if its stability is to be maintained, each sector with its own governance and ethnic population. The job of policing these states will become much easier, instead of trying to bring order to one large area of chaos. UN peacekeeping troops will be sufficient to maintain the temporary stability required for the government in those states to stamp out the insurgents who terrorize the efforts of peace. Far from slinking away from this disaster Britain will continue to support Iraq, but in a far more sensible manner, by breaking the issue into more manageable parts, which do not require the presence of so many British troops and will allow the Iraqis to take the responsibility for their countries well being into their own hands. Once the states have stabilized their specific areas the UN can host free election for the entire country without the looming terror of insurgents.

This innovative fresh forward-looking approach shall continue with this government’s interaction with the international community. Talks with the European Union shall take on a new life, as we shall continue to protect the interests of Britain while being more open to the ideas of cooperation with Europe. We shall no longer neglect china and the Asia-pacific countries for this administration has the ability to identify the prosperity and growth we can share in together. Bi-lateral talks with these soon to be super powers shall be initiated with great vigour and we shall rise together, pulling Britain to the great economic footing it has the potential to achieve.

Trust in our government shall be renewed in the British people, not only will my ears be open to them, but I shall listen intently to my opposition for I know there is much to learn from everybody around me, in order to run this country to the best of my ability. In this new era it is co-operation and mutual understanding that shall shine through the strongest. Gone are the days when a man standing before you can spin and twist his words to delude you and this country. Trust, honour, honesty and hard work are what I believe in and I believe my merit can only be measured by what I do for the people. I promise to completely readdress our education system, to place all the people of Britain on par with the world’s increasingly difficult information and knowledge race. We shall not be left out of the modern technology sprint.

It is my great honour to serve this country, it is my honour to be able to do it with men and women like you, it is my honour to lead this country to a fresh field of opportunity and I shall not let you or the British people down. Even as the claws of terrorism work to destroy us, even us the perils of climate change rise higher and the wars we fight make us weary, the spirit of the British people is unquenchable and the very least I can do is reciprocate that inspiring tenacity.
