I don't believe in God and all that. But I am Jewish, and very proud to be so, very proud of the culture.

I don't make enemies, it's just I'm not afraid to speak my mind, which can sometimes mean people don't like what I am saying

Look, I'm a member of the House of Lords and I'm the first to admit that I don't understand how one gets new laws through.

If you enjoy what you do, don't be afraid of expressing your enthusiasm. Enjoyment is infectious.

I don't like paying 50 per cent of tax.

It will take a brave person to cull the benefits system and analyse who deserves and who doesn't.

I like to be a very fair person.
