I’m a journalist who writes novels on the side, so it’s not like I’m prohibited from expressing my opinion, it’s not like I’m running for office. And also, I think the fact that I’ve lived on both sides of the Atlantic has given me a slightly different perspective

I am the best bodyguard, because I’ll take a bullet, I’ll take a stab wound, I’ll take a hit upside the head; I’m like a kamikaze pilot.
