Prime Minister David Cameron and London Mayor Boris Johnson arrived in the Hendon constituency today to press home the message that a vote for anyone other than the Conservatives puts Britain's future at risk. Speaking to an audience of 300 at the Utility Warehouse in Colindale, the Prime Minister said that when the Conservatives entered government all that was found was a note saying "I'm afraid there is no money" but after five years we have halved the deficit, cut income tax for 26 million people, created 2 million jobs, increased the state pension by £950 and invested a record £113 billion in the NHS. He went on to say that these achievements can only be continued with a strong economy - and that would be under threat by a Labour SNP coalition. 

Boris spoke about the increasing numbers of houses being built in the area and how a Conservative government would construct starter homes for people under 40. These would not be sold to landlords for rent or sold to overseas investors - they would be homes for local people sold at 80% of the market value.

Responding to a question from the audience about the Prime Minister and Boris Johnson going to the same public school, the Prime Minister said it was not important where you have come from but where you are going.  Matthew added "I am a full member of the Conservative team in Parliament and I did not go to public school or have had a privileged upbringing".

"No matter where we went to school, it was quite an occasion for myself, the Prime Minister and Boris Johnson to be speaking from the same small stage in the Hendon constituency. The Utility Warehouse is an example of how local businesses are emerging through the economic chaos we inherited in 2010 and we cannot allow the recovery to be put into jeopardy by a possible Labour SNP coalition."
