MAY: BEST IS YET TO COME
‘We’ll thrive after Brexit’
THERESA May will today vow to forge a patriotic and successful Britain that gets even stronger after Brexit.
In her keynote speech to the Conservative conference, the PM will insist the country has “everything we need to succeed” after leaving the EU. Mrs May will promise to stamp out the far right, and be a party of “patriotism but not nationalism”. She will say: “I passionately believe that our best days lie ahead of us and that our future is full of promise.
“Don’t let anyone tell you we don’t have what it takes – we have everything we need to succeed.”
The PM will issue a call to arms to her party colleagues, and insist they get behind her in the “national interest” to put hard-working people first. One year on from her disastrous address during which she suffered a coughing fit, Mrs May will stress her credentials and promise to see off Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour.
She will say: “Millions who never supported our party in the past are appalled by what Jeremy Corbyn has done to Labour. They want to support a party that is decent, moderate and patriotic. One that puts the national interest first.”
The under-fire PM will pledge to root out intolerance, and make a party “comfortable with modern Britain in all its diversity”.
She will also promise to support business, and give everyone the opportunity to succeed.
Mrs May will add: “A party not for the few, not even for the many, but for everyone who is willing to work hard and do their best.”
