I am happy to report that we have delivered on that promise of jobs: 327,000 new jobs created since February; manufacturing shipments, the strongest six-month growth since the start of the survey in 1981; real growth, 6.4 per cent, far outstripping the performance of any other of our G-7 partners; and business confidence, up to its highest level since 1979.
In the House of Commons on October 25th, 1994. See this statement in context.
