I am Thomas Cromwell in the court of the Tudors.

I. cannot stoop to reply to the folly and the slander of every poor Tory partisan who assails me, and I should not have noticed you but for the fact that you are a member of the House of Commons.

I have mortally opposed the English king; I have stormed and taken the towns and castles which he unjustly claimed as his own.

England is so defined, the class system, your education. I think what was unique about the Canterbury scene.

I've got absolutely no desire or intention of damaging England.

I've committed myself to serve my constituents in South Shields and I have committed myself to British politics.

I appeal to all Britishers to answer this call to arms for the defence of all the principles that we Englishmen have been the first to proclaim in the world.

Galvanised into action by the second trial, I was determined to change Britain's archaic sex laws.

Up until the War of the Roses there had been continual conflict in England.

I suppose I've always carried what is regarded as a bit of unnecessary baggage in Britain. I've always carried the charge that I am an intellectual in politics.
