I think politicians who suggest they are uninterested in the support of newspapers are not being straight with people.
From Douglas Alexander
What matters in any campaign is that you have a strategic core that makes the judgements, decides the strategy, and can deliver.
I do think our challenge is to balance credibility and a clear message about how we would reduce the deficit with boldness about the choices that we put before the public.
It would be wrong for us to offer difference from the Conservative Party at the cost of credibility, but equally it would be wrong to offer credibility at the cost of being clear that there remain very fundamental differences.
Politicians often reveal most about themselves in unguarded moments.
A self-evidently confident politician, Cameron still suffers from a curious hollowness. Ten years after he became Conservative leader, many people still question what he actually stands for or believes in.

As shadow foreign secretary, I have been as clear in my support for the government when it does something we agree with as I am in highlighting that which we oppose.
In this age of growing interconnectedness, we understand that turning our backs on the world is simply not an option.
David Cameron's approach has left Britain weakened and weary because to retreat from the world is as foolish as it is futile.
