On Wednesday, the Queen will outline the Government’s legislative plan for the next parliamentary session which will include details of plans for health, job creation and tackling crime and terrorism.<\/p>\n
In a podcast released today, the PM said:<\/p>\n
\n“This is a difficult period for our country. But Britain has a bright future; one I’m optimistic about and which I believe can be one not of austerity, but progress, and one where all the people of Britain move forward together.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Gordon Brown outlined plans to reduce Government borrowing and encourage growth through targeted investment that creates jobs and builds a “modern, green infrastructure” for the digital age.<\/p>\n
He also outlined plans for a “transformation” of financial sector policing, where consumers are able to take collective action to hold banks to account.<\/p>\n
Mr Brown added that credit card companies would be banned from encouraging people to borrow more than they can realistically afford.<\/p>\n
On public services, the PM said:<\/p>\n
\n“A better Britain means world class public services underpinned by guarantees not gambles. So we are moving to a system where patients, parents and local communities have enforceable rights over the services they receive – and front line staff have more freedom to shape the service they give.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
