I am seeking every day to restore faith in Parliament - to ensure we have a House of Commons which is representative, effective and reconnected to the people we serve.
If you asked me if I'd rather be Speaker or a very senior minister, I'd say Speaker.
I'm supremely uninterested as to what is written in many of the newspapers.
A legislature cannot be effective while suffering from public scorn.
I think the record shows that as Speaker, I have taken the lead in cleaning up politics.
The prime minister's job is to captain his team, his party and his government.
