More quotes by William Hague
The low carbon economy is at the leading edge of a structural shift now taking place globally...
William Hague
The British retreat is over and now the advance will begin.
William Hague
It makes life very simple actually. You could be giving a TV interview in howling gale and it no longer matters.
William Hague
You do have to do business with and to try to influence people you don't agree with, or find disagreeable, so it's important to stress that balance.
William Hague
One day I will go back to my books and piano, but not yet.
William Hague
I gave up lots of things I love doing: writing, and business, and playing the piano and so on.
William Hague
It is the mission of the next Conservative Government to build the Responsible Society.
William Hague

William Hague
There is no budget for travel for a Shadow Foreign Secretary.
William Hague
We have to face the reality of climate change. It is arguably the biggest threat we are facing today.
William Hague
The appalling crackdown that we witnessed in Hama and other Syrian cities on 30 and 31 July only erode the regime's legitimacy and increase resentment. In the absence of an end to the senseless violence and a genuine process of political reform, we will continue to pursue further EU sanctions.
William Hague
Obviously a Conservative government will always leave taxes lower than they have been under Labour. Those things go with the territory of the Conservative Party.
William Hague

William Hague
Someone once claimed I was not really a Yorkshireman!
William Hague
You have to have as many defences in place as you possibly can. But even then of course - and it's important to stress this - you cannot guarantee being able to prevent every attack or every kind of attack.
William Hague
Governments that use violence to stop democratic development will not earn themselves respite forever. They will pay an increasingly high price for actions which they can no longer hide from the world with ease, and will find themselves on the wrong side of history.
William Hague
I'm going to reduce the size of the Cabinet, cut the number of ministers, reduce the size of the House of Commons, campaign for a European Parliament with 100 fewer members, halve the number of political advisers, and abolish a huge swathe of Labour's regional bureaucracies - and agencies and their offices in Brussels.
William Hague
Well, if you're looking for me to lead a normal representative life, well good luck finding a foreign secretary who'd be like that - totally dependant on the political system and has never earned any money. Then you'll get the politicians you deserve.
William Hague
The Bill of Rights was intended to secure freedom of speech - the freedom of speech of members of parliament to speak freely rather than be at threat of... the threat of an over powerful monarch at the time.
William Hague
I don't think a wise thing at this moment is for Israel to launch a military attack on Iran.
