And to advise her to ask Boris Johnson to form a new administration. I repeat my warm congratulations to boris on winning the conservative leadership election. I wish him and the government he will lead every good fortune in the months and years ahead. Their successes will be our countrys successes and i hope that they will be many. Their achievements women build on the work of nearly a decade of conservative or conservative led government. During that time our economy has been restored, our Public Services reformed and our values defended on the world stage. Of course much remains to be done. The immediate priority being to complete our exit from the European Union in a way that works for the whole United Kingdom. With success in that task can come a new beginning for our country, a National Renewal that can move us beyond the current impasse into the Bright Future the british people deserve. To serve as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is the greatest honor. The heavy responsibilities i outweighed by the huge potential to serve your country. But you achieve nothing alone. And as i leave downing street, my final words are of sincere thanks. To my colleagues in government and parliament to everyone in the building behind me and across the civil service, to the men and women of our armed forces and Security Services and to the Public Servants in our schools, our nhs, our police and the other emergency services, all are inspired by the noble wish to serve their country in the National Interest. I also want to thank the british people. Everyone who loves our great country, who works hard for their family and want their children and grandchildren to enjoy greater opportunities than they did, thank you for putting your faiths in me and giving me the chance to serve. This is a country of aspiration and opportunity, and i hope that every young girl who has seen a woman Prime Minister now knows for sure that there are no limits to what they can achieve. Finally and most of all, i want to thank my husband philip whos been my greatest supporter and my closest companion. That wasnt me. I think the answer to that is i think not. Im about to leave downing street but im proud to continue as a member of parliament for maiden head. I will continue to do all i can to serve the National Interest and play my part in making our United Kingdom a great country with a great future, a country that truly works for everyone.
