It's a cowardly form of politics to use my spouse to beat me.
I don't want to crawl over the entrails of past disputes.
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.
A legislature cannot be effective while suffering from public scorn.
I'm supremely uninterested as to what is written in many of the newspapers.
I pride myself on being courteous to people, and trying to fashion good relations.
