Prime Minister Tony Blair has given his final Labour Party Conference speech as leader, Tuesday 26 September, and has urged the party to unite and move forward together to win a fourth term.

Received with a standing ovation, Blair told the Labour members: "You're the future now, make the most of it."

Bringing reconciliation between himself and Chancellor Gordon Brown, he said, "I know New Labour would never have happened and three election victories would never have been secured without Gordon Brown."

Brown had played his part to bond with Blair in his conference speech on Monday when he said it had been a privilege to serve under his premiership.
