More quotes by 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
For the security of the UK, it matters a lot for Somalia to become a more stable place.
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
Not all politicians are bonkers, but most of them are.
William Hague
Spending only what the country can afford, rewarding savings, encouraging independence, supporting marriage: people know that these things are common sense.
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
I'm not, nor is anybody I know in government part of a nasty right wing clique.
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
I don't think my principles change. I think the way in which you apply those principles to modern society changes.
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
I believe we should reframe our response to climate change as an imperative for growth rather than merely being a way of being green or meeting environmental commitments.
William Hague
If some of the people who write about mojo came with me for a week, they would drop dead on their feet.
William Hague
I have found that I get a better reaction from people once I am less bothered about their reaction.
William Hague
Let's not be afraid to speak the common sense truth: you can't have high standards without good discipline.
William Hague
We are making progress militarily, there is no doubt about that. You've seen the reports from Misrata, although reports of the Gaddafi forces completely pulling out of Misrata seem to be exaggerated.
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
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
It is not my policy to hit voters during the election.
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.
