“It’s almost 10 years since the 2008 crisis, but we all still remember the consequences of ignoring threats to the public finances.”

Our future lies in being a high skilled, high innovation, free enterprise nation.

People want to know about the details of politicians, what they like doing in their spare time, about their families. I think that’s human.

As Chief Secretary to the Treasury, my first responsibility is to the taxpayer.

Our public services and the great people who work in them are improving lives.

I campaigned for the UK to stay in the European Union but the country chose a different path.

Parliament should start earlier in the day and finish earlier. Otherwise I love it.

I try to be as clear and straight as I can in what I am putting forward. I think people are fed up with politicians where there are lots of bland lines to take.

Kitchen-table start-ups and local entrepreneurs will find they have major new opportunities opened to them, as they gain easier and quicker access for their goods and services into one of the world’s largest markets.

All of us in Parliament now have a responsibility to get on with the process of leaving the EU and securing a more prosperous future for Britain as an open, global, trading nation.

I own almost 100 hotels in North America. Some of them are only in management, but some of them we have some small stakes in them.

For paranoia about ‘what other people think’ : remember that only some hate, a very few love – and almost all just don’t care.

I could work and get to know him and have him help me with the text, the script and become him. It’s almost like a painter having a model to become.

Almost every cartoonist, when he’s sitting down to draw a funny face.

You could almost call them marriages, even though I didn’t marry. But it was costly.

I grew up in the 1950s and ’60s, when it was almost a holiday when a black act would go on Ed Sullivan.
