Fairness is not about statistical equality.

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.

Sally is my wife, but not my chattel or my property.

I'm not psychic. I cannot know what is in the mind of particular public figures.

One consistent thing in an otherwise inconsistent career is that I've always been passionate about parliament.

For far too long the House of Commons has been run as little more than a private club by and for gentleman amateurs.

A legislature cannot be effective while suffering from public scorn.
