“I am quite bolshy, sometimes. I like to get my own way, lets put it like that.”

When we’ve looked into trying to find a full daycare place in London it’s just been impossible. You just cannot get one.

Every pound that comes into the Exchequer was earned by someone through hard work, and could have been used for a new car, a holiday or a treat for the children.

From Brompton bikes in Australia to Bentleys in the US – the world wants what Britain has to sell.

I have seen too many chaotic settings, where children are running around. There’s no sense of purpose.

It’s absolutely right that we scrutinise the leaders who after all are going to be in a position of great power.

When men call women ambitious they mean pushy.

The biggest opportunities from Brexit will come from more trade with the rest of the world.

Trade is critical to us all – it ensures we have what we need to live, that the NHS gets the equipment it needs to save lives, and that developing countries can prosper.

We’ve been prepared to make the arguments for lowering corporation tax, which is all about encouraging risk takers, encouraging entrepreneurs.

As Chief Secretary to the Treasury, I aim to be the disrupter in chief.

I have been the only female minister in every government department I’ve worked in.

People want to start businesses because it’s a way of fulfilling their ambitions and dreams.

Choice is a national instinct. This capitalist bedrock of our prosperity and security is threatened by a Labour Party that wants to overthrow the whole system.
