"The one thing we can all be sure about in politics is you are as well to expect the unexpected." ― Charles Kennedy Topic(s): Politics More From Charles Kennedy "Further Education should be about the ability to learn, not the ability to pay – everyone who is able should have the opportunity, regardless of their family background. I don’t want to see students struggling with huge debts or frightened off even going to university in the first place." "The quicker we get rid of the lobby system the better for all of us. I don’t think in this day and age it is tenable to have these nods and winks, and on-the-record and off-the-record briefings." "It is true that I entered parliament at the age of 23, and have now been representing the people of my constituency for over twenty years."

It may be authoritarian politics, but there is politics."― Hillary Clinton "Look, there ought to be politics in politics."― Karl Rove "I can’t get a relationship to last longer than it takes to make copies of their tapes."― Margaret Smith
