[Brexit] They've won this great Victory and they're wandering around looking like their spaniel has been hit by a lorry. Because they didn't want this. They wanted it to go 51-49 in favour of staying in the EU, so that they could still have the EU but would have discredited Cameron just enough so they could try and get him out.

I do feel British first, then I feel Scottish, then I feel Yorkshire and I feel English a long, long way behind that.

I look back and I think 'how did we get through that? How did we cope?' I never really had a day off, never ever had an uninterrupted holiday. The weekend when The Mirror did Jack Straw's son, I can remember being on a ride at Euro Disney on the phone to Jack and he could hear kids screaming. I remember one of my kids saying 'are you ever gonna get off that phone?' Or the situation with Robin Cook, it was the start of our holiday and the whole drive down through France, kids in the back, I'm talking to Robin, I'm talking to the papers, I'm talking to Tony, trying to sort it all out. We went on holiday to Rome a few months ago for a long weekend and the phone range three maybe four times. Part of me said 'humpf', part of me said 'amazing! Time off!'" - on his job as special advisor to Tony Blair
