I'm a first generation immigrant.

Ethnic minorities are not one homogeneous political group.

More generally, I strongly believe in the importance of fiscal responsibility.

There can be no lasting prosperity for our people, if we do not protect our planet.

Having a lower tax, simpler, fairer, flatter tax system is something that can drive growth.

My father is a doctor and my mother ran the local pharmacy. Growing up, I saw firsthand the difference they made to our community.

Upon leaving the E.U., Britain will find itself with more opportunities for economic innovation than at any time in almost 50 years.

We are a country of Newton, Hodgson, and Turing. Ours is a country of ideas, invention and discovery and is truly a national history.

We rise to challenges, we will meet them, we're well prepared for them, we'll get through them and we'll emerge on the other side stronger.

I feel the Conservatives are doing really well both in attracting votes from British Indians and also having successful British Indians in the party.

It was a Conservative government that in 2016 introduced the national living wage, giving Britain's lowest-paid workers the biggest pay rise in 20 years.

From education to employment, housing to trust in the police, politicians from all parties must understand the different issues affecting individual communities.

There is a clear political desire to rebalance the British economy away from London towards the regions, and away from the services sector towards manufacturing.

India is a major power, with a youthful and hardworking population, and has an incredibly bright future. I hope the U.K. can be part of that journey as a close partner.

It is important that those that do come to settle in the U.K. gain a sense of British identity and share British values. We have always attracted the best and brightest.

In terms of cultural upbringing, I'd be at the temple at the weekend - I'm a Hindu - but I'd also be at the Saints game as well on a Saturday - you do everything, you do both.

From working in my mum's tiny chemist shop to my experience building large businesses, I have seen how we should support free enterprise and innovation to ensure Britain has a stronger future.

As you would expect, I come from a business background, and the idea that a finance director would be somewhat not working closely with the CEO of a company is very strange to anyone in the business world.

In spite of what are unprecedented measures in scale and scope, I can't stand here and say I can save every single job, protect every single business or indeed every single charity. That's just simply not possible.

We are committed to levelling up across every region and nation in the U.K. and that is why we are making the largest ever public investment into broadband. This investment delivers on our promises to the British people, boosting growth and prosperity across the country.
