Every Time [chris Bryant] Asks A Question

You Have A Political And Media Elite Who Have An Idiom By Which They Describe Politics. It's Highly, Highly Polarised. It's Right, Left, Red, Blue, Up, Down, Victorious, Crushed.

Joining The Liberal Party Was A No-brainer For Me... And When You Are A Young Man, You Don't Get A Calculator Out Saying, 'am I Going To Get To Power?' You Get Propelled Forward By Idealism.

I Don't Even Pretend We Can Occupy The Lib Dem Holier-than-thou, Hands-entirely-clean-and-entirely-empty-type Stance. No, We Are Getting Our Hands Dirty, And Inevitably And Totally Understandably We Are Being Accused Of Being Just Like Any Other Politicians.

I Will Not Accept A New Wave Of Fiscal Retrenchment, Of Belt-tightening, Without Asking People At The Top To Make Their Contribution, To Make An Additional Contribution. I Don't Think You Can Ask People On Middle And Low Incomes, Who, After All, Are The Vast Majority Of The British Population, To Bear The Brunt Of This Adjustment.

What I Hope Is In Five Years' Time, I Can Go To The British People In The Election And Say: Lots Of You Doubted That Coalition Politics Worked, But It Has Worked.
