Cameron Claims He Can "Turn Britain Around"


In the BBC article David Cameron Tells Tories He Can Turn Britain Around, Cameron claims the the UK is a "complete and utter mess". The conservatives have outlined six key themes for the upcoming election campaign: dealing with the deficit; boosting enterprise; shoring up families; backing the NHS; raising standards in schools; and cleaning up politics. Cameron promises there is a light at the end of the dark tunnel of the UK's problems. Many of the opposition parties claim that Cameron's optimistic speech was sparked by the fall in poll ratings to just two points ahead of Labour. A recent poll suggest that at the moment, the population would currently vote 37% Torie, 35% Labour, and 17% Liberal Democrat.


In relation to the themes of sovereignty, authority, and liberal democracies, the United Kingdom is an exemplary example of each theme. The country has always been known for its fair elections, and the outcome of the elections will determine whether the Labour party will continue to hold the power of the government or if once again the Conservatives will regain authority.
