One consistent thing in an otherwise inconsistent career is that I've always been passionate about parliament.
When I first started out in politics I was, what you might describe as, a hard right Conservative.
I'm not in the business of warning people.
I'm supremely uninterested as to what is written in many of the newspapers.
Lying to a committee is a very grave abuse, and there ought to be a clear punishment.
If you asked me if I'd rather be Speaker or a very senior minister, I'd say Speaker.
