I think political correctness is a moving line.

The labour Party has lost the last four elections. If they lose another, they get to keep the liberal party.

My favourite plant is the foxglove. I think they are a perfect balance between being a garden plant and a wild plant, as at home in woodland as they are in a city.

I've always liked trees. And then, growing up, I took an interest in ecology, hedges being destroyed, the landscape being turned into prairies.

Gardening has just sort of grown on me. I find it therapeutic. And I like smelly things.

On the environmental front there's concern about global warming and high levels of carbon dioxide, and trees take in CO2 and store carbon.

Sometimes you just can't hear yourself. Maybe ears are too close to the mouth.

Once we allow ourselves to be disobedient to the test of an accountant's profit, we have begun to change our civilization.
