I am not interested in a third party. I do not believe it has any future.

The danger of any new party at a time of disillusion with the old parties, is that it becomes all things to all men.

The saddest illusion of the revolutionary is that revolution itself will transform the nature of human beings.

We have run out of creativity for children and teachers alike in the name of pushing up standards.

The Catholic Church has never really come to terms with women. What I object to is being treated either as Madonnas or Mary Magdalenes.

We really shouldnt be running education like a supermarket where you compare prices.

We have to say now we think the character of the party has changed so far it will take something very exceptional, something really out of the ordinary line to make us be convinced there's a chance of winning back the party.
