"Progressive politics is not something to be bolted on to another cause." ― Johann Lamont Topic(s): Politics More From Johann Lamont "I love hard political debate and I love beating somebody on a political point but what I’m more frustrated by is the politics where you play the man not the politics." "Scotland is my country, the nation that shaped me, that taught me my values. A nation whose achievements inspired and inspire me, a community whose failings drive me – drive my overwhelming desire to fight for social justice and equality." "Telling the truth, and confronting the challenge, is what politics is about."

And election-year politics, which intensifies everything, is not going to drive me off that course."― Eric Hoffer "Frankly, if you do politics, you should not be thinking about your dignity."― Aung San Suu Kyi
