"This is our manifesto. It doesn’t have a picture of me on the cover. It doesn’t have anyone’s picture on the cover. On the cover are the simple longings of the British people – people who feel forgotten and ignored. They don’t ask for much.
"They long for hospitals that are clean. I mean, how hard is it to keep a hospital clean? It's a good question. If only we had a government that could give a good answer.
"People long for more police on the streets, to enforce respect, discipline and the law. They just don’t understand why this seems so difficult. But it’s completely beyond Mr Blair."
