Time is not on Gaddafi's side. People ask about the exit strategy. It's Colonel Gaddafi who needs an exit strategy because this pressure will only mount and it will be intensified over the coming days and weeks.

More quotes by William Hague
I've always been opposed myself to prisoners having the vote.
William Hague
How long do Syrian families have to live in fear that their children will be killed or tortured, before the Security Council will act? How many people need to die before the consciences of world capitals are stirred?
William Hague
Elected presidents are for countries.
William Hague
When a Cabinet Minister who is sacked for telling lies is re-appointed, in the face of every constitutional convention, only for the same man to be sacked again from the same Cabinet for the same offence by the same Prime Minister no wonder the public are cynical about politics.
William Hague
Syria should not belong to one family, to one coterie, or to one party. It belongs to all the people of Syria equally, in all their religious and ethnic diversity.
William Hague
I think the way things have been left after Iraq is that people won't believe the Government of the day, so they have to know that lessons have been learnt and that all political parties and people, whether they were for or against the invasion of Iraq, have learnt lessons.
William Hague
There is no budget for travel for a Shadow Foreign Secretary.
William Hague
I described the euro as a burning building with no exits and so it has proved for some of the countries in it.
William Hague
Wouldn't it be better to have a watertight law designed to catch the guilty, rather than a press release law designed to catch the headlines?
William Hague
I don't think my principles change. I think the way in which you apply those principles to modern society changes.
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
Someone once claimed I was not really a Yorkshireman!
William Hague
We have to face the reality of climate change. It is arguably the biggest threat we are facing today.
William Hague
The EU is not a country and it's not going to become a country, in my view, now or ever in the future. It is a group of countries working together.
William Hague
Those who back the Syrian regime from now on will find themselves in an even more isolated and indefensible minority.
William Hague
People feel that in too many ways the EU is something that is done to them, not something over which they have a say.
William Hague
When you reduce taxes on higher earners it's vital to be reducing them on lower earning people as well so the nation shares in the approach.
William Hague
Ambition is best tempered with self-knowledge!
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
People work hard and save hard to own a car. They do not want to be told that they cannot drive it by a Deputy Prime Minister whose idea of a park and ride scheme is to park one Jaguar and drive away in another.
