    This government has increased the numbers of police and we will increase them still further. There are more bobbies on the beat! But crime is not a matter of the police alone. It never was. Police needs support from all of us. Indeed, the enemies of the British bobby are the enemies of liberty itself. The police served the rule of law impartially. They need our support. They deserve our trust.
    And there's one thing that only government can and must do. It must secure the country's defence, and in a nuclear age that means we must have a nuclear deterrent. Winston Churchill, who knew so much about the dangers of weakness in appeasement, warned us thirty-five years ago. He said, be careful above all things, not to let go the atomic weapon until you are sure and more than ensure that other means of preserving peace are in your hands, for a government to surrender our nuclear deterrent will be an unprecedented act of folly that will put the nation in jeopardy. The nuclear deterrent has preserved peace in Europe for forty years.
