The UK was one of the first economies to go into recession, and is now the last big economy to come out - with new figures out today which show the first signs of economic growth (0.1% in the last quarter) after eighteen months of recession.
"Obviously this will be very good news, but let’s be absolutely clear what this means", David Cameron said.
"Coming out of recession doesn’t mean that our debt crisis is over - far from it. Labour’s debt crisis is the biggest threat to our recovery. So we’ll only get this recovery right if we start right now on a proper debt reduction plan."
In highlighting the need to "get a grip of our debt crisis", David Cameron used the analogy of a credit card: "the more we spend and the longer we wait to pay off our bills, the worse it can get".
He said that the Government’s promise to halve the deficit in four years has failed to convince all those who we need to have confidence in Britain’s economic future.
"A key part of any plan is at least some early action to show that you are serious in your intent. That means some reduction in public spending plans in this coming financial year."
"It is time they realised that it’s time to do the right thing", David Cameron added.
The sooner the election comes, the sooner the people of Brighton Kemptown will have the opportunity to vote for change!
