More quotes by William Hague
When we have a Deputy Prime Minister who tells people not to drive cars but has two Jags himself, and where the Minister who tells people not to have two homes turns out to have nine himself - no wonder the public believe politicians are hypocrites.
William Hague
We have to face the reality of climate change. It is arguably the biggest threat we are facing today.
William Hague
We are not directly involved in Syria. But we will be working with our partners in the European Union and at the United Nations to see if we can persuade the Syrian authorities to go, as I say, more in that direction of respect for democracy and human rights.
William Hague
As far as I'm aware, everybody in the shadow cabinet accepts that there's a compelling case on climate change and a strong scientific case.
William Hague
Whatever happens in Mogadishu, in Somalia, will happen in Great Britain. We have interlocking interests.
William Hague
I think Britain would be alright, if only we had a different Government.
William Hague
Someone once claimed I was not really a Yorkshireman!
William Hague

William Hague
Today further EU targeted sanctions on Syria come into force. The message is clear and unambiguous: those responsible for the repression will be singled out and held accountable.
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 is the mission of the next Conservative Government to build the Responsible Society.
William Hague
Turning away Turkey from the EU would be a great, long-term - a century-long - error by Europe.
William Hague
You can gain in your effectiveness as a politician from a wide acquaintance with the world and from a degree of independence that having some outside interests gives.
William Hague
Egypt is a sovereign nation.
William Hague
Those who back the Syrian regime from now on will find themselves in an even more isolated and indefensible minority.
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
It's really necessary for the United States to continue to give strong leadership to the Middle East peace process, supported by European countries at the same time.
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
For the security of the UK, it matters a lot for Somalia to become a more stable place.
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.
