I am a socialist, a believer in rational thought and the rule of law.

You lose power in Britain and you are just Joe Public again.

Working with the Jewish community is essential to me and what I stand for. I do explicitly see Jewish people as a people - not either a religion or an ethnicity but a people. The Tories take Jewish London for granted. I will not.

I mean I get loads of money, all from different sources. You give it to your accountant. They manage it. But you pay corporation tax. If you're then taking it out and spending it on yourself, you have to pay more.

The world is run by monsters and you have to deal with them. Some of them run countries, some of them run banks, some of them run news corporations.

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

If transport, housing and Olympic projects do not work, I will crawl away under a stone.
