leader political democracy
I like democracy. I like to be able to throw out my political leaders when they get things wrong, and we don't get to do that with Brussels.
law long citizens
For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens: as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone.
believe gay ties
Conservatives believe in the ties that bind us. Society is stronger when we make vows to each other and we support each other. I don't support gay marriage in spite of being a conservative. I support gay marriage because I am a conservative.
advice help people work
We will say to people that if you can work, and if you want to work, we will do everything we can to help you. We will give you the training, we will give you the support, we will give you the advice to get you going and get you back at work.
effect putting radical rather reform sure work
What we're putting forward is the most radical reform of the welfare state... for 60 years. I think it will have a transformative effect in making sure that everyone is better off in work and better off working rather than on benefits.

One of the pleas you get when you're talking to the tourist industry or the energy industry or the whoever is, 'Please, can we just have the same minister for longer than five minutes?'

For me, and I suspect for lots of other people too, bad things actually sometimes make you think more about faith and the fact that you're not facing these things on your own.
case explosives hopefully last sure time watch
I watched, for the 17th and hopefully the last time, The 'Guns of Navarone' on New Year's Eve. I always watch just in case the explosives don't go off in the end. You have to watch the end, just to make sure it's OK.
climb massive mountain next win
We have a massive mountain to climb if we're to win the next election.
believe deeper europe gone pressure somehow
Those who believe that pressure for deeper integration in Europe has somehow gone away are wrong,
era needed style
We're in a very different era now. The style then was right for then, and a new style is needed for now.
err human
we are all human and we err and stray.
account affair call clearly fool fools-and-foolishness job looks opposition private
His private affair is a private matter. Clearly he looks a fool but our job in opposition is to call him to account on his ministerial record.
badly cannot deal failed home leadership office
He has presided over systemic failure, he's failed to deal with it. He cannot give the Home Office the leadership it so badly needs.
