For the absolute avoidance of doubt, my leadership will be about unity, drawing on all the talents - with women representing half of the shadow cabinet - and working together at every level of the party.

If the leadership can't win a debate, then we should show true leadership and implement the democratic will of our party.

I am just an ordinary person trying to do an ordinary job.

You can't sustain a high level of intense activity with thousands of people forever. It has to be for a specific objective.

I've always been proud that my name stands for peace.

We are proud of the role our military plays in Japan: defending our allies, ensuring regional peace and stability, and responding to humanitarian catastrophes.

Female service members are so integrated into the military, so critical and vital to all functions of the military, from combat service support to combat support, to direct combat, that we could not go to war as a nation - we could not defend America - without our women.

The IRA has abandoned its armed struggle in pursuit of its goals by political means. This must be fully acknowledged. Continued challenge does nothing but obstruct and inhibit the peace process.
