I'm in exactly the same position as everybody else who has a small business. I mean I get loads of money, all from different sources. You give it to your accountant. They manage it.

I do the gardening.

I came into politics because I wished to change things. You can't do that by lying to people you have to educate, and persuade, and carry them with you - and it's often a long haul.

I loathe and detest all this trivialisation of politics.

Politics is not a healthy lifestyle.

Short of being prime minister there isn't a better job in British politics than running London.

I do explicitly see Jewish people as a people - not either a religion or an ethnicity but a people.

I undertake that, in the exercise of my functions of that office I will have regard to any guidance with respect to ethical standards issued by the secretary of state under Section 66 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999.

I was a weedy kid, not like one of those working-class men who can accommodate not being academically clever by physical strength and prowess.

Most kids don't get to go their parents' wedding.
