More quotes by Theresa May
Today I can announce a raft of reforms that we estimate could save over 2.5 million police hours every year. That's the equivalent of more than 1,200 police officer posts. These reforms are a watershed moment in policing. They show that we really mean business in busting bureaucracy.
Theresa May
What we're also doing is helping police forces in terms of issues like procurement and IT, so that savings can be made in those areas which I think is the sort of thing that everybody is going to want us to be doing.
Theresa May

Theresa May
What is absolutely clear is that we have, with the U.S., an extradition treaty which is important, I believe it is an important treaty, for both sides, the United States and the United Kingdom. It is a treaty that I believe is balanced and we work on that basis.
Theresa May
We're continuing to work to bring immigration down to the tens of thousands.
Theresa May
I think major reorganisation is not something the government's about to do.
Theresa May
Nobody can guarantee the real terms per pupil funding increase. In the Labour party's manifesto we know the figures don't add up.
Theresa May
As I reflect on the results of election I will reflect on what we need to do in the future to take the party forward.
Theresa May
We're getting rid of bureaucracy, so that we're releasing time for police officers to be crime fighters and not form writers.
Theresa May
It's only by investing properly in our defense that we can ensure we're properly equipped to face our shared challenges together.
Theresa May
My pitch is very simple. I'm Theresa May and I think I'm the best person to be prime minister of this country.
Theresa May
I'm sick and tired of government ministers in this Labour government who simply blame other people when things go wrong.
Theresa May
As I say the UK's position on the issue of torture and the use of torture has not changed. Our policy is the same as it has been. We condemn torture.
Theresa May
The idea that Parliament somehow wasn't going to be able to discuss, debate, question issues around (Brexit) was frankly completely wrong.
Theresa May
One of the issues that has been an issue in how we deal with net migration up until now is that we haven't been able to have any control over freedom of movement from the European Union. We will have that control in the future once we leave the EU.
