“I’d personally like to see the Human Rights Act go because I think we have had some problems with it.”

I think it’s important to do a good job and not to feel that you’ve got to make grand gestures, but just to get on and deliver.

I want a counter-terrorism regime that is proportionate, focused and transparent.

I’m not sure I should reveal the sources of my clothes.

In seats where perhaps we don’t expect to win at the next general election, the new infrastructure gives us a chance to win local council seats and to build a campaigning base which could help us to win in the future.
