One of the paradoxes of globalization is that, in the developing world, we've seen massive reductions in property.

I believe the bicentenary offers us a chance not just to say how profoundly shameful the slave trade was - how we condemn its existence utterly and praise those who fought for its abolition - but also to express our deep sorrow that it could ever have happened and rejoice at the better times we live in today.

I actually did trouble to read Marx first hand. I found it illuminating in so many ways in particular, my perception of the relationship between people and the society in which they live was irreversibly altered.

Any parent wants the best for their children. I am not going to make a choice for my child on the basis of what is the politically correct thing to do.

I had discovered long ago the first lesson of political courage: to think anew. I had then learned the second: to be prepared to lead and to decide. I was now studying the third: how to take the calculated risk. I was going to alienate some people, like it or not. The moment you decide, you divide.

They could have been removed. They could have been hidden. They could have been destroyed.
Tony Blair

In government you carry each hope each disillusion. And in politics it's always about the next challenge.

The moment you stigmatize a whole group of people - for example, Muslims - then, obviously, you make the decent, law-abiding Muslims feel as if they're under threat in some way or that their legitimacy, as members or citizens of society, is brought into question.

This is not a battle between the United States of America and terrorism, but between the free and democratic world and terrorism.

The emphasis placed by more and more companies on corporate social responsibility, symbolises the recognition that prosperity is best achieved in an inclusive society.

The appalling details of the campaign of intimidation - which include grave-robbing - show the depths to which the animal extremists are prepared to stoop.

We, therefore, here in Britain stand shoulder to shoulder with our American friends in this hour of tragedy, and we, like them, will not rest until this evil is driven from our world.
