The rise of vape shops, betting shops and rogue operators have replaced the shops, services, and community spaces that people are crying out for.

It is not cool, it is not a good habit, and I despise the fact I have to say on your show that I’m addicted to nicotine as I started as a kid.

It’s a lifetime of purgatory for me of doing something I know isn’t good for me - I don't want to see an explosion of vape shops.

I don’t love vaping.

The changes we’ve made mean councils can now keep every single penny of this money to support the Prime Minister’s ambition to build more homes.

The announcement would put an end to the begging-bowl culture of the past.

Our devolution revolution is about bringing an end to the begging-bowl culture of the past, and instead making sure our local leaders have the tools they need to drive the change that communities have been crying out for.

People have underestimated me all my life. If you tell me I cannot do something I will fight like hell to get it done.

I’m a straight-talking person, 1.5 million homes is a difficult target… but I’m going to keep it, I’m not going to be defeated.

This isn’t an excuse, but houses don’t go up in five minutes. I wish they did – it takes time.

I’m not dropping it – I’m just saying it’s a really difficult challenge.

That is not something that we’re looking to do because we’ve seen what’s happened in areas like Scotland. It hasn’t necessarily brought rents down.

I don't think that rent freezes, rent controls, is a way forward at the moment.

We are on borrowed time if we don't get a move on.

We want to aspire to get as far as possible and what we've done as a government is put more investment in that, the £39bn for social and affordable housing grant funding that we want to get out the door.

The situation I went through last year was really difficult, it was difficult for my family, but I felt I'd let people down and I never want to let people down, I want to fight for them.

No, my severance payment was given to me at the time, I had worked in government for a period of time and then I came out of government for just under a year.

Keir will have to reflect on that.

I don’t think that Nigel can shrug this scandal off and hope that it goes away. I think this one's got lots of legs and it's gonna carry on running.

The red card was given. To reverse it because someone powerful says, 'You need to reverse it' - I think that goes against fairness and it goes against the spirit of the game.

Whitehall empires hoard their own power.

This needs a much deeper cultural change across Whitehall and the scale of that challenge can’t be underestimated.

The Devolution Act gives all mayors London-style planning powers – a new framework that can be expanded and built upon... The act is the beginning, not the end, of breaking away from the command and control culture of Whitehall that has…
