now is the moment for Britain to choose its future to decide whether we want to build on the progress we have made or risk going back to square one with no plan and no certainty earlier today I spoke with his majesty the king to request the dissolution of parliament the King has granted this request and we will have a general election on the 4th of July this election will take place at a time when the world is more dangerous than it has been since the end of the Cold War these uncertain times call for a clear plan and bold action to CH a course to a secure future you must choose in this election who has that plan who is prepared to take the Bold action necessary to secure a better future for our country and our children now I cannot and will not claim that we have got everything right no government should but I am proud of what we have achieved together the Bold actions we have taken and I’m confident about what we can do in the future on the 5th of July either K stor or I will be prime minister he has shown time and time again that he will take the easy way out and do anything to get power if he was happy to abandon all the promises he made to become later leader once he got the job how can you know that he won’t do exactly the same thing if he were to become Prime Minister over the next few weeks I will fight for every vote I will earn earn your trust and I will prove to you that only a conservative government led by me will not put our hard-earned economic stability at risk can restore pride and confidence in our country and with a clear plan and bold action will deliver a secure future for you your family and our United Kingdom
