I wanted my marriage to work, but it didn't.

In politics, the people I most despise are those who have no values.

Being an MP is a good job, the sort of job all working-class parents want for their children -- clean, indoors and no heavy lifting. What could be nicer?

My mother liked Jim Reeves. I hated his records. He was unbearable.

I believe every abortion is a tragedy.

I'm not the only Labour MP who sent their child to public school but I'm the only one who's questioned about it.

There is no reason why the US and the UK cannot have close relations.
