In Tough Times, Everyone Has To Take

I Know I'm Not A Showy Politician... I Don't Go Drinking In Parliament's Bars. I Don't Wear My Heart On My Sleeve, I Just Get On With The Job In Front Of Me And You Can Judge Me By My Record.

People Feel That They're Being Required To Meet All Sorts Of Regulations And Rules And Requirements In Their Areas Of Work And Mps Are Not Imposing Those Sort Of Restrictions On Themselves.

The Conservative Party's Always Stood In Every Seat And I Think It's Important To Us And I’m Personally Very Pleased That We Plan To Continue To Run Candidates In Northern Ireland As Well.

I'd Personally Like To See The Human Rights Act Go Because I Think We Have Had Some Problems With It.

It [selecting As Many Candidates As Possible] Is Also Advantageous For The [conservative] Party Because It Helps Us To Build A Base In Those Areas Where We Have Not In, Recent Times, Been As Active As We'd Have Liked. It Means That Opposing Parties Don't Get A Free Run But Are Challenged To Prove Themselves To Voters.
