| 1 | Let's take the issue of gay marriage. I do not care tuppence what consenting adults do. It's not my business. The state does not belong in bedrooms. So I'm not authoritarian. I don't say: 'You shouldn't do this, you must do that.' What I do say is that the state must have a preferred model, and the model that has served us throughout the millennia is marriage - a man and a woman in a union that is generally open to procreation. Marriage isn't about two people; it is the basis for the family. That's why it's unique, and therefore I think society can say we're keeping marriage for a man and a woman. |
| 2 | It was non-stop vulgarity. To record 30 minutes for the programme you have to film it for two and a half hours. And two and a half hours of Carr's sense of humour was more than I could stand. (On appearing on Have I Got News For You with Jimmy Carr) |
| 3 | To fight socialism and solve seemingly insoluble problems. (On her reason for going into politics) |
| 4 | The only way you can interest people in politics is when they're faced with a real choice. When I had my first vote the world was divided into two conflicting political ideologies - capitalism versus communism. There was an enormous difference in this country between the Conservative Party and a socialist party. Young people today have never seen a socialist party. Blair (Tony Blair) and Brown (Gordon Brown) weren't about socialism, Foot (Michael Foot) and Kinnock (Neil Kinnock) were. It mattered to people who ran the country. Now they don't see that difference. They're not making decisions about political philosophy. |
| 5 | For years there's been an assumption that as society gets more civilised and doesn't have a death penalty, it's going to be a much gentler, kinder, more decent society to live in. Now look at the society we do live in as a result of all that thinking. It's a society in which children kill each other, the murder rate has absolutely shot up, you've got rampant paedophilia. That's the society which all this so-called enlightened thinking has created and it's because we've lost sight of one very fundamental fact. There is such a thing as evil and if you do not fight it, it will eventually triumph. |
| 6 | Television turns out a diet of swearing, drunkenness, drug-taking, shouting and screaming, abuse of authority, sex, criminality and provocative humor, delivered in Estuary English. That is before the watershed; after which it merely gets worse. |
| 7 | [on the then Home Secretary Michael Howard] "He has something of the night about him". |
| 8 | Mr Right never came along. And it was never a sufficient priority to go out looking for him. |
