One, because it was a lengthy interview, and i do think a large number of the short interviews i see merely produce sound bite answers they don t really inform the public. And secondly though i probably shouldn t say this it s 65 years since ijoined the conservative party. I was, am, and always will be a conservative.

Has your dream come true? emphatically not
