I really like England. I like the lifestyle and the country. The history. The culture, which London is full of. The country pursuits.

I could give you a long list of things I like about Britain, but essentially what it comes down to is that I feel about Britain the same way I feel about my wife. I'm crazy about my wife - we just kind of suit each other. I wouldn't say that she's the most fantastic human being that's ever lived, but she is for me.

The country of Britain is wonderful because of its royalty.

I live a perfectly happy and comfortable life in Blair's Britain, but I can't work up much affection for the culture we've created for ourselves: it's too cynical, too knowing, too ironic, too empty of real value and meaning.

I think England has served me very well. I like living in London for the reasons I gave. I have absolutely no intentions of cutting those ties. There is absolutely no reason to do so. Certainly not, so that I can have a swimming pool and a palm tree.

I grew up in Essex, and all my life I wanted to live in London - now I do. I feel very privileged to be able to live here.

I love London, I love the British people.

I still like being in North of England and I keep a place there. But there are a lot of things about the Continent that are to be preferred. The social institutions work better, women have a better position in society and the food is another thing.

I just love being in the U.K.

I love London. I love the U.K., but if I was going to live anywhere else on Earth, it would be Australia.
