New Britain

Tony Blair

New Britain presents Tony Blair on all the major debates of British public life: from nationalized health care to crime prevention from the welfare state to monetary policy from religion to family values from individualism to isolationism from taxation to trade unions from NATO to Northern Ireland from community rebirth to economic growth. After seventeen years of Conservative Party rule under Margaret Thatcher and John Major a change in Great Britain's leadership appears imminent. In Blair's Stakeholder Nation government works in partnership with private and voluntary sectors to harness the power of the market to serve the public interest. In New Britain we read in Blair's own articulate words how to improve the standard of living of all Britain's families; how to base a new social order on merit commitment and inclusion; how to decentralize British institutions of political power; and how to expand Britain's leadership in foreign affairs.>
