Andrea Leadsom

Individual bankers are rightly being investigated by the police. I and all colleagues in the chamber hope that if criminality is proven, they will go to jail and bear the same brunt of punishment as any other criminal.

My CV, as I've presented it, is exactly accurate.

I absolutely am a Christian, and I am very proud of it.

It would be helpful if broadcasters were willing to be a bit patriotic.

I have deep sympathy with the hundreds of my constituents who fear that legislation for same-sex marriage will profoundly encroach - although this may be unintended - on their right to live according to their faith.

I have a passion for support for new families, which Boris Johnson shares.

I believe that the love of same-sex couples is every bit as valuable as that of opposite-sex couple.

Marriage in the biblical sense is very clearly - from the many, many Christians who wrote to me on this subject, in their opinion - can only be between a man and a woman.

I wholeheartedly believe that same-sex couples have as valid a relationship with their partner as do heterosexuals. I also believe that in the eyes of the state, we all deserve to be treated equally.

I want to live in Britain with a sense of humour - where there are no groups whose life choices are 'above' criticism.

Like so many of my generation and those younger, I have spent most of my life in the E.U., and my instincts were naturally for reform from within.

I am a big fan of seeing more women in public life.
