Anti-social behaviour still blights lives, wrecks communities and provides a pathway to criminality.

These modern means of communication are one reason why I recently opposed the Government's decision to grant MPs a new communications allowance. With new technology giving us the opportunity to communicate directly with voters very cheaply, why did Labour MPs vote for a £10,000 allowance to tell voters what a good job they do?

There is nothing inevitable about crime and there is nothing inevitable about anti-social behaviour.

Today I can announce a raft of reforms that we estimate could save over 2.5 million police hours every year. That's the equivalent of more than 1,200 police officer posts. These reforms are a watershed moment in policing. They show that we really mean business in busting bureaucracy.

As I reflect on the results of election I will reflect on what we need to do in the future to take the party forward.

The days of Britain and America intervening in sovereign countries in an attempt to remake the world in our own image are over.

I want to see an open and tolerant society here in the United Kingdom, I want to see a country that works for everyone whatever their background.
