【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 lowest recovery in one hundred years. One million youngpeoplelooking for work. More people on record working parttime who want full timework. Morepeople than for a generation out of work for longer. The longestfall in living standards since1870. That is not worthy of a lap of is worthy of a lap of shame and that is therecord of this government.
　　He does have one record thoughbut I donamp。rsquo。t think it credits a lap of honour. He has beenPrime Minister for 39months and in 38 of those months wages have risen more slowly thanprices. Thatmeans your living standards falling year, after year, after year. So in 20xxyouamp。rsquo。ll beasking am I better off now than I was five years ago? And we alreadyknow the answer formillions of families will be no. Youamp。rsquo。ve made the sacrifices,but you havenamp。rsquo。t got the rewards. Youwere the first into the recession but youare the last one out. Now of course it would have takentime to recover fromthe global financial crisis whoever was in power. But when these Toriestellyou that the pain will be worth the gain, donamp。rsquo。t believe them. They canamp。rsquo。t solvethe cost ofliving crisis and here is why. The cost of living crisis isnamp。rsquo。t anaccident of David Cameronamp。rsquo。seconomic policy it is in his economic policy. Letme explain why. You see he believes in this thingcalled the global race, butwhat he doesnamp。rsquo。t tell you is that he thinks for Britain to win theglobal raceyou have to lose, lower wages, worse terms and conditions, fewer rights atwork. ButBritain canamp。rsquo。t win a race for the lowest wages against countries wherewages rates are pennies anhour and the more we try the worse things will getfor you. Britain canamp。rsquo。t win a race for thefewest rights at work against thesweat shops of the world and the more we try the worse thingswill get for Britain canamp。rsquo。t win a race for the lowest skilled jobs against countrieswherekids leave school at the age of 11. And the more we try the worse thingswill get for you. It is arace to the bottom. Britain cannot and should not winthat race.
　　You see it is not the lowachievements of these Tories that really gets me. That is badenough. It istheir low aspirations。 it is their low aspirations for you. It is their lowaspirations forBritain but their high hopes for those at the top. The Citybonuses are back. Up 82% in Aprilalone thanks to the millionaireamp。rsquo。s tax cut. Sowhen they tell you the economy is healing, thateverything is fixed, justremember, they are not talking about your life, they are talking abouttheirfriends at the top. That is who they are talking about。 it is high hopes forthem. And everyso often you know the mask slips doesnamp。rsquo。t it. The other day aman they call Lord Howell, he was Ithink their advisor on fracking at onepointamp。hellip。 There is nothing funny about that. He said it waswrong to frack in someareas but it was ok in others, it was ok in the North East of Englandbecausehe said, and I quote amp。lsquo。it was full of desolate and uninhabited areas.amp。rsquo。 In onecasual asidedismissing one whole region of the country. Letamp。rsquo。s tell theseTories about the North East ofEngland and every other part of Britain. Peoplego out to work. They love their kids. They bringup their families. They carefor their neighbours. They look out for each other. They are proud oftheirmunities. They are proud of their munities. They hope for the future. TheTories callthem inhabitants of desolate areas. We call them our friends, ourneighbours, the heroes of ourcountry. They are fed up of a government thatdoesnamp。rsquo。t understand their lives and a PrimeMinister who cannot walk in theirshoes. We are Britain, we are better than this.
　　Now, to make Britain better wehave got to win a race to the top, not a race to the race to the topwhich means that other countries will buy our goods the panies will eandinvest here and that will create the wealth and jobs we need for the future butwe are notgoing to be able to do it easily. It is going to be tough and let mejust say this friends. You thinkopposition is tough, you should trygovernment. It is going to be tough。 it is not going to beeasy. And Iamp。rsquo。m notgoing to stand here today and pretend to you it is. We are going to havetostick to strict spending limits to get the deficit down. We are not going to beable to spendmoney we donamp。rsquo。t have and frankly if I told you we were going toyou wouldnamp。rsquo。t believe me, thecountry wouldnamp。rsquo。t believe me and they would beright not to believe me. But we can make adifference. We can win the race tothe top and let me tell you how. It is about the jobs wecreate, it is aboutthe businesses we support, it is about the talents we nurture, it is aboutthewages we earn and it is about the vested interests that we take on. Let mestart with thejobs of the future. The environment is a passion of mine becausewhen I think about my twokids who are 2 and 4 at the moment and not talkingthat much about the environment, moreinterested in The Octonauts. Thereamp。rsquo。s aplug. In 20 yearsamp。rsquo。 time theyamp。rsquo。ll say to me amp。lsquo。were you thelast generation not toget climate change or the first generation to get it?amp。rsquo。 That is thequestiontheyamp。rsquo。ll be asking.
　　But it is not just aboutenvironmental care. It is also about the jobs we create in the seesome people say, including George Osborne, that we canamp。rsquo。t afford to haveenvironmentalat a time like this. He is dead wrong. We canamp。rsquo。t afford not tohave an environmentalmitment at a time like this. That is why Labour willhave a world leading mitment ingovernment to take all of the carbon out ofour energy by 2030. A route map to one million newgreen jobs in our is how we win the race to the top. And to win that race to thetop we havealso got to do something else, weamp。rsquo。ve got to support the businesses of many of the new jobs in the future will e from a large number ofsmall businesses not asmall number of large businesses. And this is reallyimportant. If you think 15 years ahead, therate of change and d
