THEY SAID WHAT?

“There will be open warfare in the Conservative Party if Boris Johnson is suspended in such a way that he could not take part in a future leadership contest”

- Tory MP Andrew Bridgen as the

burka row rages on.

“I am concerned by reports that Trump’s sacked adviser Steve Bannon is forming a Europe-wide far-Right campaign group - and has been in touch with Boris. I hope no Conservative politician, including Boris, is taking advice from him about how the Party should behave”

- Damian Green, former Tory first secretary, warning that the right was turning Johnson into a

martyr.

“I don’t think he expressed himself in an offensive way at all. I have talked to several colleagues and they have the same view as I do. What on earth is all the fuss about?” - David Wall, secretary of the Midlands Industrial Council on Boris Johnson. “I’m terrified still! But you’ve got to fake it ‘til you make it”

- Former Coronation Street star Julie Hesmondhalgh, above, on being a performer.

“A songwriter now will be better off working in a hamburger bar as they will probably make more money”

- Singer Feargal Sharkey.

“If you don’t embrace getting older, you’re not only a fool, you’re also the kind of person who probably believes in the tooth fairy”

- Dylan Jones, GQ magazine

editor.

“I don’t usually get to play sophisticated women. I usually do the old scrubs, chavs or slappers”

- Actress Sheridan Smith.

“I’ve got more rabbit than Sainsbury’s. I swear, I’ve got worse over the years. I’ve got to slow myself down, haven’t I?”

- Singer Gabrielle admits she is a

chatterbox.
