David Cameron's First Speech as Prime Minister

the conservatives and labour were left with few targets to aim at in hoping to gain more

For example David Cameron (DC) controversially changed the outlook of the conservative party and claimed it to be ‘The party of the NHS’. He also believes that state intervention within healthcare s needed and vital, as well as being against any privatisation of the NHS.

“If to be in crisis means that the whole system is on the brink of total collapse or explosion, then we probably do not have a crisis.” (Cavadino and Dignan, 2002: 10)

First of all, if the government decides to cut current public expenditure, it will lead to a reduced quantity and quality of public goods and service. For example, closing NHS direct call centres down which results in lower living standard. Moreover as the spending

World War II was a period that changed many countries forever after the war ended: Germany was split in two, an iron curtain fell across the continent shortly after the war’s end, and acres of land and millions of people were destroyed and lost in the war. However, many changes happened during the war as well, and this is easily observed in Britain during the beginning of the war, when the country was constantly being bombed and attacked during the Battle of Britain. The Battle of Britain forced British citizens to change their mindset as a society and as a functioning economy in a split second, regardless of whether or not the people were ready for it.

Another contributing factor at this election may have been performance in office, which in the above statement is not seen as important as personality and image. However, performance in office may have been extremely detrimental for the conservatives in 1997 because of their crisis in 1992. This focuses on the retrospective model, as people saw the Conservatives as incompetent in handling the economy because of Black Wednesday in September 1992. The Conservatives and especially Noramnt Lamont, Chancellor of the Exchequer, were to blame for the crisis that saw the pound forced out of the ERM. This didn’t help at the 1997 general election where they did extremely badly in a huge Labour win.

Extract B (lines 5 – 7) states: ‘This plan, laid out by the Coalition Government, implies the longest and deepest sustained period of cuts to public spending since the Second World War’.

New Labour came into power on May 1st 1997 and pledged to undertake the most radical shift in constitutional arrangements which would reform British constitution. Majority agree that this was a momentous period of constitutional change, arguably the most important period of constitutional change in Britain since the introduction of universal suffrage. However others think that it was too radical, too unplanned and too unfinished. By the end of its first term (1997-2001), the Balir government had enacted a substantial reform programme.

Winston Churchill’s Their Finest Hour speech propelled Great Britain’s involvement in World War II. After the great defeat of the francophone countries by the Nazis, Winston’s words provided motivation and encouragement for the country to not give up. Churchill is commonly known as a great orator by his use of pathos in his speech. In this speech he makes plain that the war with France has ended, and now the battle for britain is about to begin. He appeals to the emotions of the audience. In this thought provoking statement, Churchill states “But if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science.” At the time of the speech, Britain was under attack by the germans using Blitzkrieg bombing, and Paris was defeated by Germans.

The budget process is the most important aspect of fiscal decision making in Public Administration. Smith and Lynch (2004), argues that “Public budgeting is an activity that many people view from their own perspectives and, thus, they do not comprehend the full complexity of budgeting” (p. 34). Similar to the contextual definition of complexity in budgeting process, a classic example was the State of California’s budget impasse for the year 2010-2011. This essay examines and analyses the concerns that lead to passing a late budget in the State of California. It further goes into details regarding the reasons, resolutions, and consequences faced due to the budget Impasse.

The centrepiece of Labour 's programme of constitutional reform was undoubtedly devolution. This was achieved with remarkably few problems. There now seems no likelihood that the new arrangements could be reversed, even by a Conservative administration. The election on 6 May 1999 of a Parliament in Scotland, with extensive powers of primary legislation as well as tax-raising, and an Assembly in Wales, with powers of secondary legislation only, will have a profound impact on governance within the UK.

Inauguration day marks a new beginning. Every four years, Americans officially welcome a new president. Each president has to address the plans, goals and ideas for the future. Therefore, the inaugural speech is meant to be an emotional and hopeful ceremony for all Americans. The inaugural speech sets the tone for the president’s first weeks in the white house. Ideally this speech will encourage those who voted to believe and trust that the right leader is in the office. On January 20, 2017 Donald Trump gave his inaugural speech and through the use of hyperboles, repetitions, and metaphors he aimed to unify the nation and give hope for the future.

The United States government has been designed by our founding fathers to ensure the legislative branch remains autonomous yet dependent part of the government branch structure itself. They kept in mind that the legislator’s actions will have an impact since they will be the one leading the legislative process. Now, in 2017 unlike any other places in the world, the legislators of the United States gets the authority to question and review the budget by moving way up from the policy making process. This division of the government plays many crucial roles and most importantly has the ability to influence the budget of this country proposed by the chief executive and in this case President of the United States. This paper on the legislative budget

Donald Trump, a once controversial political candidate, gave his 2017 Inaugural address on January 20th, 2017 when he was inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States. Through appeals such as syntax and diction, religion and patriotism, and logic, Donald Trump was able to generate a unifying speech toward his audience. Amidst the growing violence and repercussions of the 2016 election, Donald Trump, in his 2017 Inaugural address, sends the message that he will put America and its citizens first to unite the country and change America for the better.

And how does the issue of increasing immigration fit in, now that "the sun has set on the British Empire" (Foa, par.2)?
