Earlier this year, people across the world were shocked and appalled when Shahbaz Bhatti, the only Christian in the Pakistani cabinet, was assassinated. I met him a week before he was murdered; last week, I saw his brother, Dr Paul Bhatti – a trained surgeon who has now become minorities adviser to the Pakistani prime minister, and helped set up a new Ministry of Harmony – and spoke to him about the plans Shahbaz and I had been discussing.
Back in March, when Shahbaz was murdered, I said that the soul of Pakistan was not in these attacks. There is nothing in the vision laid out by Pakistan’s founding father, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, that creates the space for such acts of hatred. The idea of unity through diversity runs through Pakistan’s history and helps to define its society today.
In the last 18 months, I have made four visits to Pakistan, and I have seen for myself the moments of hope among the tragedies. It is heartening, for example, that for the first time in Pakistan’s history, a number of seats are to be allocated for minorities in the senate.
But two things struck me that are as relevant to us as they are to Pakistan. First, it is a mistake to assume that you compromise your identity the more you try to understand others. The stronger your understanding of your neighbour, the stronger your own religious identity becomes. For many years, I have been saying that the stronger we are as a Christian nation, the more understanding we will be of other faiths. That is why, a year ago, I went to a bishops’ conference and said that this Government would “do God”. It is why the Pope’s visit was so important for our country. And it is why I am proud that this year, for the first time, the Prime Minister held an Easter reception in Downing Street.
We need to create a country in which people can be unashamedly proud of their faith – where they don’t feel that they have to leave religion at the door. That means being proud of Christianity, not downgrading it. It means encouraging people to say that their faith inspires what they do. It means supporting religious charities in delivering public services in schools, hospices and rehabilitation.

WE work hard. Each month we get our pay packets. Part of it we bring home, part goes to the Government. We spend our part wisely. We root out the bargains. But what about the share that’s taken by the Government? Are they as smart with our cash?
For too long, they haven’t been. And for 13 long years under Labour there wasn’t any real transparency about what was going on. Now we’re doing things differently, publishing all big items of public spending online. It’s like when you go home with a new purchase, and someone asks: “How much?” That is the common sense we apply at home. And that is the common sense that’s finally being applied in government.
Party Chairman Sayeeda Warsi has sent her best wishes to Hindus and Sikhs across the country as they celebrate Diwali this week.
The festival symbolises the triumph of good over evil, light over dark, and knowledge over ignorance.
The Prime Minister David Cameron marked the event, which is known as the festival of lights, with a special event in Downing Street last week.
Baroness Warsi said: “The principles of Diwali – friendship, goodwill and hope – are things all people in this country, of every faith and none, can truly identify with.
“I love seeing the lights and the fireworks every year. They really capture the spirit of Diwali, which is a time to come together and celebrate the joys of life.
“So I want to wish everyone the very best at this special time of year.”
Published in The Yorkshire Post, Monday 17th October 2011
Recently I was asked what qualities I bring from my Northern roots to my role in Government. My response was simple: what I bring to the Cabinet table is Yorkshire common sense.
A common sense approach to politics means that you don’t do what politicians normally do and deny the obvious. It means you don’t spin your way out of something that’s gone wrong. It means telling it as it is and being straight with people – having the courage to be upfront and frank.
So let’s be frank about the problems our country is facing. Times really are tough. The world faces a very serious debt crisis. Families are struggling. Here in Yorkshire, many people are worried about losing their jobs. I know how that feels – my father lost his job and faced unemployment. What the Prime Minister said last week was true: every job loss is a tragedy for an individual and for a family.
So last week I was back on the campaign trail, travelling round my home county of Yorkshire and listening to people’s concerns. People were telling me the same thing: it’s not easy. They are switching from buying fresh to frozen; they’re leaving the car at home; they are thinking twice – or even not at all – about going on holiday this year. Others, small business owners, are asking how they are expected to weather the economic storm.
When they told me their concerns I didn’t soft soap them or dish out the usual platitudes. Instead, my message was the same as my father told me when he was struggling: we can get through this; we can ride out the storm; we can build a better, different future. And Britain can achieve that better future, but as a government we need to take the right decisions for the long-term.
What that means, firstly, is living within our means. Everyone in Yorkshire knows – and we have taught our children this for years – that you can’t get anywhere if you weigh yourself down with debt. Our economy is a bit like a household budget – you have to deal with the credit card or the bills will keep on mounting up. Unlike the previous government, we know that the way out of debt is not by creating more debt.
Secondly, it means helping hardworking families and those who do the right thing. Right now, people are worried about the monthly outgoings, the weekly shop, today’s bills. So what is this Government doing? We have funded a freeze in council tax, leaving people in this region with an average of up to £70 back in their pockets. Then there is the increase in the personal allowance, which, in Yorkshire and the Humber is benefiting a whopping two million people and taking 26,000 out of tax altogether.
Thirdly, the key to a stable economy is getting people into work. So we are joining forces with local businesses and organisations to create around 10,000 new jobs in Yorkshire through the Regional Growth Fund. We are making sure work actually pays by reforming the benefits system and introducing the fairer, simpler Universal Credit, while setting up the largest welfare to work programme Britain has seen since the 1930s. We are helping people to gain the skills to take up employment, with more than 10,000 under-25s on Jobseeker’s Allowance in this region gaining from our work experience programme and many others benefiting from our work academies.
Finally, a better future requires a strong economy for the long-term. When I was in Slaithwaite last week I visited a bakery, which relied on community support and investment to raise the £40,000 necessary to renovate and equip its bakery, café and training school. This is just the sort of innovation and community-led growth that we need. And that is why Local Enterprise Partnerships – of which there are three in this region – are putting power in the hands of businesses and councils to capitalise on local entrepreneurialism and expertise to create their own thriving economies.
My Yorkshire common sense tells me we need to be frank about these tough times, but that we also need to be positive about forging a better future. Clearing up the financial mess left by Labour, living within our country’s means, taking the pressure off the families’ budgets, creating more jobs and making work pay – this is the sort of long-term approach my father taught me, and it’s the approach this Government is taking to secure stronger economies in every corner of the country.

I loved the Sun’s cartoon yesterday of me and Theresa May dressed like Mary Portas. For me, it summed up exactly why her comments about the dress sense of women politicians were so silly.
Of course, being in politics you expect people to scrutinise every aspect of your life. And I don’t blame Ms. Portas for chipping in.
But what gets me is the double standards of this kind of thing.
You would never get the same kind of sniping about men in politics. No one would have dreamt of giving fashion advice to any of the great men who led our country. Just imagine if someone had told Churchill what suits to wear.
Besides, I simply don’t think that Sun readers give two hoots whether their politicians wear designer dresses or high fashion labels. What matters is whether their leaders are up to the job.
Put it this way: Margaret Thatcher wasn’t a great Prime Minister because of her pussy bow blouses. She wasn’t the Iron Lady because she had a designer handbag. She was Britain’s greatest peacetime Prime Minister because she was tough, responsible and did great things for our country.
The same goes for all the women in politics. It’s ridiculous to judge them on what they do or don’t wear. People want to know: have they got what it takes to run the country? Are they hardworking? And are they taking the right decisions?
Just think of the signals that kind of sniping sends to young women thinking about going into politics. If you’re a woman, people will always be judging you not on what you’re doing but on how you’re looking. And if we don’t judge a man on the cut of his suit, we shouldn’t judge a woman on the style of her skirt.
Of course, what we wear sends a message to people across the country. Every politician has to be responsible and present themselves in the right way. But it’s idiotic to suppose that because we hold elected office we should somehow become leading style gurus. That’s the last thing politics needs.

Riots in Birmingham, London and Manchester reflected a “something for nothing” culture encouraged by Labour, Tory chair Sayeeda Warsi tells Political Editor Jonathan Walker
Sayeeda Warsi
She grew up in a poor family, experienced racism at school and still remembers the hushed whispers at home when her dad lost his job.
Conservative chairman Sayeeda Warsi may not sound like your typical Tory.
But in some ways she’s the Conservative dream bought to life, as someone who pulled herself up by her bootstraps and made it to the top through hard work and ambition.
Speaking during her party’s annual conference, she contrasted her response to the challenges she faced in life to the “something for nothing” attitude of looters who attacked shops in Birmingham, London and Manchester.
And she revealed she believed Labour leader Ed Miliband had the right idea when he called for more “responsibility” in society during his own conference speech – but claimed he was “hypocritical” for failing to accept that Labour was responsible for the culture created while it was in government.
She also attacked some proposed boundary changes as “mad and insane” and insisted Ministers regularly discussed ways of supporting the regions outside London around the cabinet table.
Asked what she believed lay behind riots which took place across the country, Lady Warsi said it would be wrong to “make excuses” for rioters, many of whom already had criminal records before this summer’s high-profile disorder.
The Muslim peer, who grew up in Yorkshire as the daughter of immigrants from Pakistan, added: “I came from a fairly poor family and it was tough. I didn’t go to a very good school and there was racism. But I didn’t think: ‘The way I can deal with all these challenges is to pinch a few shoes from Foot Locker’.
“I knew I needed to get my head down, work hard, make the best of what I had and work my way out.
“We have to be careful that we don’t make excuses for what is actually sometimes criminality.”
But not everyone who took part in the looting was a hardened criminal. What did Lady Warsi think had led so many ordinary people to go out shoplifting?
She said: “It is an overall culture, which is: ‘If you can get away with it, why not?’
“I agree with what Ed Miliband’s saying about the something for nothing culture, where people who work hard don’t get rewarded, where people who do the wrong thing seem to benefit. We were saying this in opposition, we are trying to implement it in things like our welfare reform in Government, but it’s hypocritical for Ed Miliband to be saying it – where has he been for 13 years?
“He’s not a martian that’s arrived just today. He was part of this project for more than a decade.”
The Government was trying to “dissect” the culture created by Labour, she said.
“For example, our housing benefit reforms are saying it isn’t right that people who work hard can’t afford to live in homes that those on housing benefit can afford to have paid for by the state.
“It isn’t right that single mum or dads wanting to get a part time job are going to pay 80 or 90 per cent of it back because you are not allowed to keep the extra money you earn.
“It can’t be right that, if you have saved for when you are older and you then need care, that you have to sell your home to get that care.
“Government has got to start rewarding right and punishing wrong.”
Lady Warsi insisted that supporting inner city areas and cities such as Birmingham was a top priority for the Cabinet.
Sayeeda Warsi at the Conservative Party Conference in Manchester
“When we sit round the cabinet table, the conversations we have are about making sure the regions are protected and making sure we support local authorities so that those with more deprived communities in their areas have a larger per head settlement.”
But it was a mistake to rely on the public sector to create jobs and cut unemployment, she said.
“It’s not for Government to say that the only way to create jobs is to employ people as part of the state.
“Ultimately it is the private sector that has to grow to employ people.”
Although the Government’s spending cuts will inevitably lead to some redundancies, she said every job lost was a “tragedy”.
“I remember when Dad lost his job. And he came home and they had those hushed conversations.
“You knew something was wrong. You weren’t old enough to understand but you knew you had to behave for the next many weeks because there was something wrong at home.
“It is a tragedy. It changes the way in which you see so many things in life.”
As party chairman, one of the headaches Lady Warsi has to deal with is the anger of Tory MPs furious at plans to redraw or tear up their constituencies.
Proposals published by the Boundary Commission, as part of a Government proposal to cut the number of MPs from 650 to 600, include moving a ward out of Sutton Coldfield and into Erdington – a suggestion firmly opposed by Sutton MP Andrew Mitchell, a Conservative member of the Cabinet.
Lady Warsi said: “I agree with some of my Members of Parliament that some of the proposals are mad and insane.
“But we have to come back to what we are doing here.
“All three parties went into the last election with a clear commitment to reduce the cost of politics, reduce the number of members of Parliament.”

The regions are a regular feature on the table at cabinet, according to Conservative party chair Sayeeda Warsi.
Baroness Warsi insisted that ministers were ‘absolutely’ focused on treating all parts of Britain equally as she took on local critics who claim the coalition has abandoned poorer urban areas like Greater Manchester in favour of wealthier southern shires when dishing out spending cuts.
She told the M.E.N: “I can assure you all of us who sit around that cabinet table are absolutely focused in making sure all parts of this country are treated fairly.”
She said she was adamant the regions did not suffer more but added that there was a responsibility on local council chiefs not to ‘squander money’.
Baroness Warsi also said she believed government was right to engage in ‘tough love’ with people who depend on the state. She said: “This
government’s aim is we should make it harder for people to stay on benefits; we should make it easier for people to get jobs.
“I believe the government is right to engage in tough love saying to people we’re not going to write you off.”
She said the decisions being taken by ministers at the moment were necessary for a more stable future and Britain needed politicians in control of decisions, not ducking them. Responding to pressure on the cabinet to change course on the economy and ease cuts she said: “I don’t think anybody expected us to wave a magic wand and make it all better in a year and a half.”
She continued: “If you speak to families and members of the public who themselves are going through very difficult times and if you ever pose to them the question do you want to have the good times now or a more stable future for your kids and your kids’ kids they will always choose the latter.
Baroness Warsi also admitted she agreed with MPs who have labelled some of the changes included in the Boundary Commission’s constituency shake-up ‘mad and insane’. However, she said she thought the basis for the reform was absolutely correct.
Sunday, 2nd October 2011
A year ago we met as one party with one purpose.To work together in the national interest.
Things were different.We had a coalition government.
We were in uncharted territory and we faced uncertain times.
But our commitment to the British people was unbreakable.
And today, Conference, as we meet with stock markets falling, the US economy stalling,
And tough times in the Eurozone, we are giving Britain the leadership she needs.
This government – this coalition government – is showing determined, responsible, political will.
Making the tough calls. Rolling up our sleeves. And dealing with our debts.
So Conference, let me tell you: last year I promised we would get to grips with the deficit.
And this year: I promise you, we are sticking to it.
NEXT GENERATION
Now I know that up and down the country people are facing tough times.
Families are making sacrifices: not having holidays, doing extra shifts, switching from buying fresh to frozen and thinking twice before they take the car for that journey
And as winter approaches, families are thinking how high are those bills going to be?
I know how that feels.
My father lost his job, he too faced unemployment.
And yes, it was tough, yes life seemed difficult.
But ask every parent, every mother, every father, every family.
Give them the choice: the good life now…max out your credit cards…live beyond your means
Or a stable, secure future for your children.
They would choose children.
We would choose children.
And this government is building for tomorrow as well as today.
We’re protecting the NHS.
Lifting the poorest out of tax.
Reforming schools to give kids the best possible start in life.
And by getting people off benefits and into work
We’re restoring people’s dignity and hope.
But at the same time we’re doing something fundamental:
Making sure this generation does not bankrupt the next!
Not saddling them with our debts
Not maxing out the country’s credit card.
But building a better future for our children.
SOMETHING FOR NOTHING
That’s the leadership we are showing for Britain.
But Conference, we all know what leadership is not.
Ed Miliband and the Labour Party.
So let me read you my favourite bits from Ed Miliband’s speech last week.
“Over the last few years we’ve seen a series of crises hitting our country.”
I agree with that.
“We’ve seen decent people with the right values losing out to those with the wrong ones.”
I agree with that.
“An economy and a society too often rewarding not the right people with the right values, but the wrong people with the wrong values.”
I really agree with that.
And he goes on:
“A something for nothing culture.”
“Take what you can.
“Fill your boots”
“Who cares as long as you can get away it”
Well we all agree with all of that:
But I ask this:
Mr. Miliband if you truly believe what you say:
Where on earth have you been for the last thirteen years??
It’s your government that created the something for nothing culture!
It’s your Party that took out more than you put in!
And it’s you who gave us a welfare system where it doesn’t pay to work
So let me tell you what I think the something for nothing culture is:
Pensioners who need care being forced to sell their homes.
Hardworking people earning less than those who play the system.
Head teachers not being able to expel disruptive pupils.
A tax system that penalises single mothers for getting a part time job.
People on housing benefit living in houses that hardworking families cannot afford.
Bogus colleges being used for immigration scams.
Squatters getting legal aid.
And do you know what the worst example is?
Reckless, irresponsible, self-interested, politicians spending millions of pounds we do not have and saddling our kids with the bills.
That’s what I call an unfair, freeloading, something for nothing culture.
And it’s them, it’s Labour that created it!
STRONG LEADERSHIP
The point about politics is it’s so easy to duck the difficult decisions.
It’s so tempting to say: “let’s leave this for the next lot to sort out”.
It would be the simplest thing in the world to say to all those protestors outside:
“You know what, let’s just carry on spending money we do not have”.
But that is not what I call Leadership.
That is the politics of convenience.
Leadership means doing the right thing even when it’s unpopular.
Leadership is being straight with people…not telling them what they want to hear.
And it means putting party politics aside….and working for the long-term good of the country.
Labour never got this in government
And they haven’t even learnt it in opposition
They play to the gallery.
Jump on every bandwagon.
Say one thing and do another
But let me tell them what the real irony is:
In the end, it just doesn’t wash.
The British people see right through it.
Look at the local elections.
Everyone said the voters would punish us.
The pundits said we’d lose a thousand seats.
But we didn’t
We made gains.
We increased our councillors.
We won new councils.
All because you went out and told it as it is.
PARTY PROMISES
Now I’m not saying things have always been easy for our Party.
Things didn’t look so rosy when Conservative HQ was under siege.
That November day when some students paid us a visit.
Surrounded our offices.
And kicked off their demo.
But it’s the job of the chairman to stay calm in a crisis.
So we locked down the office, we protected the picture of Her Majesty, we prepared to defend the statue of Lady T.
It was at that point I got a phone call from Korea.
It was the Prime Minister at the G20.
He said: “Hi Sayeeda, is everything ok?”
I said: “fine Prime Minister, everything is under control”.
He said: “That’s not how it looks on Korean TV!
“….I see protestors on the roof, and fires in the reception.”
I replied: “Oh no Prime Minister, that’s just propaganda, you know what Korean State TV is like”
“Sayeeda, cut the nonsense, I’m in South Korea.”
And as a Party, let me tell you what we delivered this year.
First, we defeated AV.
I knew it was wrong.
You knew it was wrong.
I said we would fight it.
I called it the mother of elections.
An election that would affect every single general election to come.
And Conference, this party delivered the mother of all results.
And do you know how we did it?
Because we were a strong, powerful, united Party.
We worked together as part of one team.
And in the last twelve months, whether it’s the Policy Forum; the Office of the Voluntary Party; better websites; a big membership drive; new support for sitting MPs – everything has been geared to bringing us together.
So when Vince Cable, Dr. Cable tells us that we are a “ruthless, tribal and calculating” campaign machine –
We know we are doing something right!
So let’s gets on to next year.
Now I believe in Boris.
I believe he is a great mayor for a great city.
On crime, on transport, on cutting waste in City Hall, Boris is delivering for London.
What’s more, I like working with him
I love campaigning with him
So we will do whatever it takes to make sure he wins!
Because, as the world descends on London next year
as we host the Olympics and celebrate the Jubilee
can you imagine if Red Ken is the face we present to the world?!
Plus, next year we’ve got another set of local elections.
So let’s get out there.
Win those Council seats.
Win those metropolitan councils
And let’s back Boris to win!
Now I know I sometimes say things that get me in trouble.
But let me let you in on something.
As proud as I am of the Coalition, as charming as Chris Huhne is to me –
I have a single driving ambition as Chairman of this Party:
To win an outright Conservative Majority in 2015.
Now if that didn’t ruffle a few feathers let me say something else.
Winning an outright majority in 2015 means we must win in all parts of Britain as it is today.
That means reaching out and connecting and attracting people from every corner of the country and every community.
It means broadening and widening and deepening our appeal.
It means we’ve got to speak to every kind of person from every kind of background.
That is the challenge David Cameron set when he became leader.
He said it’s not enough simply to say: the door is open.
We must walk out and welcome new people in.
Britain is changing and we must keep changing.
Adapting and reaching out.
Not in the way that the Left do.
Not by Labour’s cynical pandering.
But by saying loudly and proudly that our values are the values of Britain’s communities.
So today I make this appeal:
To every person in this land
To every Christian, Hindu, Jew, Sikh and Muslim…
To people of all faiths and of none
To every person, Black, White or Brown
Of every culture, every community, every sexuality, able or disabled
Every class and every creed
Join the Party that attracted me.
This is the modern, Compassionate Conservative Party.
A Party that’s open, that’s inclusive, that’s welcoming.
That believes in what you believe.
Hard work. Fair Play.
Respect for your Elders. Support for the family
Hand ups, not hand outs.
A belief in opportunity
Where every child has the chance to succeed.
A belief in fairness
Where those with the broadest shoulders share the biggest burden.
And a belief in responsibility
Where you reap what you sow.
If you share that vision
Sign up to our mission.
Because I want every community to make this Party its home.
So broadening our appeal.
Backing Boris.
Winning in the cities.
Growing our grassroots across England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales.
All these things are vital for 2015.
And that starts now.
Every pound we raise.
Every pound we spend.
Every leaflet we deliver.
Every call we make.
Every candidate we select.
Every member we take.
It’s all about 2015.
Because if we truly want a Compassionate Conservative Britain governed by Compassionate Conservative Party
Then in 2015 you, me, we must deliver an outright Conservative majority.
Thank you.

A BIGGER SAY ON POLICY FOR CONSERVATIVE MEMBERS
As a Party, we’ve got to keep listening to our volunteers and give them a bigger role in the political process. Thanks to our new, revitalised Conservative Policy Forum, we’ve now given the grassroots a much stronger voice on policy and we’re going to make sure that voice is listened to and really counts. There’s a huge amount of passion, expertise and thinking going on in our grassroots – after all, most people become party members because they want to voice their views. So I want us to harness that thinking as we look ahead to the big policy challenges of 2015 and beyond.
KEEP REACHING OUT TO BME COMMUNITES AND BROADEN OUR APPEAL
Over the last five years we’ve made big progress changing our party to make it better represent our country. So as well as getting the first Muslim in Cabinet, we’ve tripled the number of Conservative women MPs and more than tripled the number of BME Conservative MPs. But the blunt truth is we’ve still got masses more to do.
There are still whole communities and areas where our support isn’t what it should be. Fixing this has to be a top priority. Look at these communities and you see so many people who could be Conservatives. After all, our values have been their values for years: hard work, responsibility, self-discipline, respect for your elders, support for the family. We’ve got to reach out and bring them in to their natural home – our modern, compassionate Conservative Party.
REAFFIRM OUR COMMITMENT TO THE NHS
One of the truly great things about our country is that we have a health service that is free at the point of use and available to everyone. It means no matter who you are, where you live, or how much money you have, there will always be help when you most need. It’s says a huge amount about our values as a country – and I want David Cameron to stand by our commitment to protect the NHS. I was proud that he made the NHS such a strong, personal priority five years ago and we’ve got to continue that over the next four years. Crucially, that means doing two key things: keep increasing spending on the NHS and make sure it is protected; put patients at the heart of the NHS, with more choice and better value for money.
BE ON THE SIDE OF HARD-WORKING PEOPLE
By far the biggest challenge we face as a government is to fix the feeling that too often life in Britain isn’t fair – that in this country, you don’t get out what you put in. For years it’s been growing and it’s been driven by different things – the something for nothing culture; seeing some people live off benefits without ever working hard for a living; the ridiculous benefit rules punishing people who want to get back into work or encouraging couples to live separately. This is all wrong and I want the Prime Minister to keep showing courage to fix it. It’s a massive task and it means applying a few simple tests in everything: are we encouraging responsibility? Are people getting what they deserve? And as a government, are we backing people who do the right thing?
STICK TO THE COURSE ON THE ECONOMY
Over the next year there will be plenty of people telling the Prime Minister to change economic course or slow down our deficit reduction plan – not least our opponents in the Labour Party, who have now opposed every single policy we’ve put forward to cut spending. But it is absolutely vital we stick a course which the markets, the rating agencies, the OECD, the IMF and the EU have all said is the right one. This is fundamental to our economic future. While other countries have lacked the political will to take action, the coalition in Britain – despite being two very different political parties – have shown leadership and courage to start the hard work of balancing the books. We still have a deficit bigger than Spain, Italy and Portugal, and if we deviate from our path, we could face the same kind of sovereign debt problems those countries have been facing. We need to stick to our course over the coming year.
