But I don't need to use politics as a way of making money.

When I came into politics I always thought there was a possibility I would be killed.

If there is one eternal truth of politics, it is that there are always a dozen good reasons for doing nothing.

I'm not into politics but I am committed to a cause: ensuring design technology and engineering stays on the U.K. curriculum, alongside science and maths - grounding abstract theory, merging the practical with the academic.

I could have made a fortune in cheeseburgers, but I finally chose politics.
