More quotes by William Hague
Remember the No campaign is Conservative people, Labour people, people of no party.
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
We have to face the reality of climate change. It is arguably the biggest threat we are facing today.
William Hague
A generation of children has been betrayed.
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.
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
For the security of the UK, it matters a lot for Somalia to become a more stable place.
William Hague
To the teacher weighed down with paperwork, I say: you've been messed around too often. You came into teaching to spend your time teaching children not filling in forms.
William Hague
Inspiring scenes of people taking the future of their countries into their own hands will ignite greater demands for good governance and political reform elsewhere in the world, including in Asia and in Africa.
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
It is the mission of the next Conservative Government to build the Responsible Society.
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 my principles change. I think the way in which you apply those principles to modern society changes.
William Hague
The world is not going into concentric blocs of power. It is actually going into a diffusion of power with more centres of decision-making than ever in human civilisation. That requires you to place yourself in far more hubs of power than ever before.
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
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
It is not my policy to hit voters during the election.
William Hague
I still agree with the invasion of Iraq. I don't agree with most of the decisions that accompanied it.
William Hague
Elected presidents are for countries.
William Hague
Gordon Brown promised to abolish boom and bust. He has kept half his promise.
William Hague
