I grew up in a house with very few books.

I've got people handling the media. I employ at the moment two people. No-one is paying income tax on the money they use to employ people.

I liked it when we had ugly politicians who droned on about issues.

I don't just denounce suicide bombers. I denounce those governments which use indiscriminate slaughter to advance their foreign policy.

I can easily lose myself emotionally in absolute Hollywood garbage.

I've always told the truth. I've often been wrong - but I've never knowingly lied. Not in public life. Because I don't see the need to.

I employed my wife for three years to sit in the attic and type up my autobiography, 700 pages, organise everywhere I go. I'm paying the normal rate of tax on the money I take out for myself.
