I'd rather support the issues I truly believe in than give my vote to parties that court votes at the time of the election. I like to think that my vote strengthens the green foundation stone.

I like where I live here, in London.

We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.

We think that this is just our world and we don't know what other people are thinking. Music actually is a phenomenal connector in that respect. It's a special language that defines certain boundaries and connects people in a particular way, a very emotional way, I have found.

I think my daughters have a pretty healthy self-awareness but I can't speak on their behalf.

There's a lot of women's organisations, but they're all working separately. If you get people together, as a collaborative voice, it's strong.

As a mother, you have that impulse to wish that no child should ever be hurt, or abused, or go hungry, or not have opportunities in life.
