Cameron sets out the path of the New Direction.

Well, conference season is now at an end, and I know I may seem biased but David Cameron's speech was by far the best of the leader's speeches.

While Ming bumbled on, and Tony spelt out his retirement plans, David did something completely different he looked to the future. After watching his perfomance I was left feeling very positive about this "New Direction". The prominence of making public services work by getting the frontline service deliverers to be the policy makers, the promise to make doctors and nurses decide what is best for the patients, is what people want, and the New direction has recognised that.

However, the political commentators didn't like it, there was nothing for them to criticise. The decision to hold firm and not make any policy decisions now, three or four years before an election is proving to be a right one.

Setting out the priorites, the areas he wants to look at and improve, will strike a chord with many people. His heartfelt points about the NHS really made me think, how can I trust a politician to run something when they don't use it themself. David Cameron does, and he needs it to be safe in his hands, as he leaves his family in the NHS's hands on a regular basis. Family friendly policies, the call for people to take responsiblilty for their own lives and communities, and the bit I liked the most, making every person who is or becomes a British citizen feel British.

Overall, I was left at the end wanting more, and I should be as it was his first speech, there is at least three more conferences to go before an election.
