political editor chris mason reports. rishi and i are each other's best friends, and i could not imagine being anywhere else to show my support to him. rishi sunak began by thanking her, his daughters, his parents as he drew a link between himself and margaret thatcher. this conservative party, the party of the grocer�*s daughter and the pharmacist�*s son, will always be the party of enterprise, the party of small business. he said he's taken a look at how government works since he became prime minister, and not liked what he's seen. it isn't anger, it's an exhaustion with politics. we've had 30 years of a political system which incentivises the easy decision, not the right one. as for taxes, they will come down, he claimed, but didn't say when. and then, it was to the crux of this speech — the proposed high—speed rail line between manchester and birmingham, scrapped. i am ending this long—running saga. i am cancelling the rest of the h52 project. and in its place, we will reinvest every single penny, £36 billion, in hund

school, residential building, all of them are being indescriminantly targeted, unfortunately, and as masonuh supporting the palestinians and trying to save them out of this misery, they're simply standing by the side of israel, equipping it with maybe whatever they need, funding and all that, and the palestinians are just receiving lip service, international organizations and some countries simply condemning, but on the ground no action. mistaken, sorry, back to you, we have a couple of minutes, they're not even condemning, what bothers me about the language they use, is they condemn, for example, hamas and then they say, we show concern, i hate that word, i show concern for civilians killed in gaza, what show concern, show concern is like it's an act of god, it's an earthquake, i show concern for the victims of the earthquake. no, there is, there is deliberate, deliberate genocide that's happening, with their support, with their own support, to show to say you show concern, is hypocritical, is not, it's even worse than hypocritical, i can't even come up with the right word to describe it,

because masons draft emphasized, life, liberty, and the pursuit of property. that is an interesting change, and it is of great interest that jefferson and his college change pursuit of property to pursuit of happiness. jefferson and his colleagues were wealthy land rovers. slaveowners. gun owners. rich people. why the change from property to happiness? my speculation -- not a must, but they may, is that the emphasis, they wanted the emphasis, to transcend the limitations of class and social status and wealth, and so on. they wanted it to be a document but did not express the self- serving, but still giving, not explicitly self-serving, ownership of property. of which, they were the leading citizens, of course, of the country. in jefferson's declaration, of course, there is a strong emphasis on the separation from the british empire, being forced on the colleagues. not a choice of the colonies voluntarily, let alone, initially any enthusiasm. as the committee and congress went through it sentence by sentence, they made some alterations, win in the course it bec
