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

I'm not in the business of warning people.

When I first started out in politics I was, what you might describe as, a hard right Conservative.

There's no point in worrying about things you can't influence.

A legislature cannot be effective while suffering from public scorn.

I pride myself on being courteous to people, and trying to fashion good relations.

I'm supremely uninterested as to what is written in many of the newspapers.
