World War II was the last government program that really worked.

Communism is a hateful thing, and a menace to peace and organized government.

As someone who worked hard for a Labour victory in the 90s, do I regret it? Not really. It was bound to happen. And it'll happen with the next government, and the one after it. Because all governments serve us. They serve the filth.

I decided I ought to pick a project that would not be controversial, that would not really cost the government a lot of money.

Government's role should be only to keep the playing field level, and to work hand in hand with business on issues such as employment. But beyond this, to as great an extent as possible, it should get the hell out of the way.
