More quotes by 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
It's necessary for Israelis and Palestinians to make the compromises that are required to get the direct talks back on track.
William Hague
We hope that the long darkness through which the Burmese people have lived may now be coming to an end.
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
Labour have been listening for too long to the so-called experts who think that competition is a dirty word and that communicating facts to our children is elitist.
William Hague

William Hague
Governments that block the aspirations of their people, that steal or are corrupt, that oppress and torture or that deny freedom of expression and human rights should bear in mind that they will find it increasingly hard to escape the judgement of their own people, or where warranted, the reach of international law.
William Hague
I have found that I get a better reaction from people once I am less bothered about their reaction.
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
Not all politicians are bonkers, but most of them are.
William Hague
It is not my policy to hit voters during the election.
William Hague
I don't think a wise thing at this moment is for Israel to launch a military attack on Iran.
William Hague
I've always been opposed myself to prisoners having the vote.
William Hague
A generation of children has been betrayed.
William Hague
People feel that the EU is a one-way process, a great machine that sucks up decision-making from national parliaments to the European level until everything is decided at that level.
William Hague
When the Lord Chancellor violates the trust of his great office of state to solicit party donations from people whose careers he can control, and then says I'm not sorry, and I'd do it again no wonder the public think that power has gone to their heads.
William Hague
At a time of such hope and optimism in the Middle East, we cannot let the Libyan government violate every principle of international law and human rights with impunity.
