This is not an election where we hand out gifts. It is an election where we ask everyone to contribute more.
From Helle Thorning-Schmidt
Denmark needs change, Denmark needs to move on and Denmark needs my leadership.
But what sets Europe apart is we insist on a social model that consists of solidarity, equal opportunity and a certain amount of redistribution.
We can say farewell to 10 years of bourgeois rule... now we have the opportunity to change Denmark.
We have the opportunity to change Denmark - that opportunity must be seized.
Without growth we can't pay down our debt, and without growth there's no money for welfare.
We are not jumping on the austerity bandwagon. A healthy economy is by far the most important thing for Social Democrats.
Of course we have to address the deficit if we win.
For young girls, whom I meet a lot when I travel around the country, it will be a big thing. It will really show them that there's no post in Denmark that a girl can't aspire to.
I feel like giving myself a pat on the back. We can create history tonight. We can bid goodbye to 10 years of (Liberal-Conservative) government which has ground to a halt, and get a new government and a new majority in Denmark.
