Five pledges to deliver peace of mind. Five foundations, on which to build a better future for our children and grandchildren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, we will halve inflation this year to ease the cost of living and give people financial security. Second, we will grow the economy, creating better-paid jobs and opportunity right across the country. Third, we will make sure our national debt is falling so that we can secure the future of public services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fourth, NHS waiting lists will fall and people will get the care they need more quickly. Fifth, we will pass new laws to stop small boats, making sure that if you come to this country illegally, you are detained and swiftly removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, five promises \u2013 we will: Halve inflation, grow the economy, reduce debt, cut waiting lists, and stop the boats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those are the people\u2019s priorities. They are your government\u2019s priorities. And we will either have achieved them or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No trick \u2026 no ambiguity\u2026 we\u2019re either delivering for you or we\u2019re not. We will rebuild trust in politics through action, or not at all. So, I ask you to judge us on the effort we put in and the results we achieve.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More to follow&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunak&nbsp;says he will make five promises today to delive peace of mind.
