The times now require a national community to be held together by a national government of a first class, triple-A rating; one that is approachable, accountable and most of all affordable. The bonds that we do have, the national values and national commitments of this country, are concretely embodied in particular measures for honouring the mutual claims and responsibilities of citizens and governments for each other.
L'époque exige qu'un gouvernement de qualité garde l'unité de notre communauté nationale, un gouvernement ouvert à la population, responsable et, par-dessus tout, un gouvernement à la mesure de nos moyens financiers.
