Turkey will "inevitably" join the EU in our lifetime unless we vote to leave.

I think it's appropriate that we simplify, clarify and strengthen, so instead of this nebulousness, we have clarity and authority invested in teachers once more.

If I'm the British prime minister I won't be dictated to on the timetable or the manner of the negotiations.

They [British people] told us to restore democratic control of immigration policy and to spend their money on national priorities such as health, education and science instead of giving it to Brussels.

I want there to be an open and positive debate about the path the country will now take. Whatever the verdict of that debate I will respect it.

Now that Britain has voted to leave, I think the country deserves to have a leader who believes in Britain outside the European Union and who also has experience at the highest level of government.

It was a tough choice [of PM]. I voted for a Scotsman.

team able would-be
I believed we needed someone who would be able to build a team, lead and unite. I hoped that person would be Boris Johnson.

In particular, I wanted to help build a team behind Boris Johnson so that a politician who argued for leaving the European Union could lead us to a better future.
