I can't imagine a God who would ever need to intercede in the daily travails of my life.

I'm not one of those who thinks there is something inherently bad or inferior about watching television.

Only the U.K. can trigger Article 50. And in my judgement, we should only do that when there is a clear view about what new arrangements we are seeking with our European neighbours.

Nuclear power is cost-competitive with other low-carbon technology and is a crucial part of our energy mix, along with new sources of power such as shale gas.

The Internet has made us richer, freer, connected and informed in ways its founders could not have dreamt of. It has also become a vector of attack, espionage, crime and harm.

ISIL are already using the Internet for hideous propaganda purposes - for radicalisation, for operational planning, too.

We are very supportive of the economic reforms that the Chinese government have talked about.

The message I would say to China is, 'Carry on with the reform; carry on with the change you are making.'

Britain has always been a home to the vulnerable, and we've always done what we need to do to help people who are fleeing persecution.

Providing great schooling is the single most important thing we can do to help any child from a disadvantaged background succeed. It's also the single most important thing we can do to boost the long-term productivity of our economy.

We have accepted there is a big role for government to create a framework where businesses can grow in all parts of the country.

Britain needs a tough, strong financial conduct regulator.

If freedom of movement is to be sustainable, then our publics must see it as freedom to move to work, rather than freedom to choose the most generous benefits.

If the E.U. allows itself to be priced out of the world economy, the next generation will not get jobs, living standards will decline, and the Union will lose the popular consent of the people of Europe.

No ifs, no buts - we will not share the pound if Scotland separates from the U.K.

For families flying out of the U.K. for a winter getaway, airports should be the ideal place to pick up a bargain.

There are always ways to make government better, always ways to make sure that the taxes of people are better spent.

People should know this of me: I will do what is required to keep our country safe and secure because, in the end, that is what people's livelihoods and jobs rely on.

Britain can only spend what it can afford.

The threat from terrorists - from extreme ideologies - needs to be challenged head-on.

The Internet - central to modern life - provides new ways for our enemies to plan and act against us.
