00:00My late father once said to me,
00:02only 20% of what happens to you is down to others.
00:0680% is down to your actions and your choices.
00:10That is why I believe in personal responsibility.
00:13That is why I know that the government cannot solve all our problems,
00:17and nor should it try to.
00:19Government should nurture a fair and safe society
00:22in which people can prosper by their own efforts.
00:25A government that tries to do everything
00:28will likely end up achieving nothing.
00:31It will also run out of everybody's money.
00:34This was one of our mistakes.
00:36We talked right, but governed left.
00:38Sounding like conservatives, but acting like Labour.
00:42Government should do fewer things, but better.
00:45And what it does, it should do with brilliance.
