I have built my reputation on honesty, I have sometimes been too honest.

I did not in late November start the plethora of linking my private life with public events again.

I have built my reputation on honesty, I have sometimes been too honest.

I must have been a failed football coach in a previous incarnation.

I don't think anyone can say I have said one thing in public and done another in private.

I love the walk although my security team weren't too sure to begin with but I was anxious to be able to lead a near normal life. Whilst walking I do get the chance to meet people and keep in touch.

I regret the time and resources needed to undertake this but... it is right to lay this accusation to rest.
