THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. This week I traveled to Kansas City to address the annual convention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

Transcript of the Prime Minister’s Broadcast on the NHS Plan Friday 28 July 2000 The creation of the National Health Service back in 1948 lifted a massive worry from people’s lives. For the first time, health care did not depend on wealth. Need, not ability to pay, was what mattered. Every family in Britain – and certainly mine – has its own reasons t...
THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. This week, Congress began to debate its annual spending bills. The American people expect us to spend their tax dollars wisely, or not at all, and to pursue pro-growth economic policies that will allow us to reduce the deficit while keeping our economy strong. Since my Administration’s tax relief was implemented four years ago, our economy ...

Transcript of the Prime Minister’s Broadcast on the Environment and Business Friday 27 October 2000 One of the usual criticisms of Governments and politicians is that they are all words and no action. So it was a bit of a novelty this week to be under fire not for lack of action on the environment but for not talking about it more. Im pleased my speech this week has he...
TRANSCRIPT OF THE PRIME MINISTER'S BROADCAST OF FRIDAY 18 FEBRUARY 2000 Being Prime Minister is a difficult job but nothing's more difficult than being a parent. And there are fewer bigger worries when you are a parent than drugs. No matter how hard you try to bring your children up well, no matter how sensible and decent they are, we all of us worry. What if they fa...

Good morning. One of my most solemn experiences as President is visiting men and women recovering from wounds they suffered in defense of our country. Spending time with these wounded warriors is also inspiring, because so many of them bring the same courage they showed on the battlefield to their battle for recovery. These servicemen and women deserve the thanks of our coun...

Unfortunately, some in Congress are using this bill as...

First, the Commerce Department released figures showing that sales for America’s retailers were up in November and that the...
TRANSCRIPT OF THE PRIME MINISTER’S BROADCAST ON 10 MARCH 2000 I make no apologies for returning to the subject of drugs so soon. As I said three weeks ago, the threat drugs pose to our children is something which terrifies all parents. Some of you may have seen the TV programme on Wednesday night about the death of Leah Betts after taking ecstasy. Not long ago, I sat d...
