David Cameron : (7) " I think we need to just be very clear about what we’re trying to do in Afghanistan. Frankly, we’re not trying to create the perfect democracy. We’re never going to create some ideal society. We are simply there for our own national security. " - David Cameron " There is not, in my view, a single European demos. " - David Cameron " Because with courage and conviction I believe we can deliver a more flexible, adaptable and open European Union in which the interests and ambitions of all its members can be met. " - David Cameron " My view is, the most important thing as prime minister is trying to make the right judgments. In order to make good judgments, you need good advice; you need good principles, and you need a clear head, and you need to have a sense of equilibrium. " - David Cameron " It is vital that we get these policies right as we take forward our plans to drive down the deficit and transform our economy. " - David Cameron " You have to be ready for anything. It’s a good reminder about democracy. Voters can tell you to carry on, or chuck you out. You’ve got to be ready for both. " - David Cameron " For me, there is no greater sunshine in politics or in life than to have a job, security for your family, a good school place where you know your child is going, and the sense that if I put in, there will be a decent, secure retirement at the end of it all. " - David Cameron
