It's a cowardly form of politics to use my spouse to beat me.

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.

Fairness is not about statistical equality.

I'm not in the business of warning people.
