Famous quotes by Vince Cable:

"It is embarrassing, the things he's said and the things he's subsequently done, and it illustrates the wider point that for any political party, including ours, to be dependent on big private donors is not acceptable and we do need to change the system to have a cap on donations."

"Rather than simply auditing assumptions, the NAO should report progress against the Chancellor's fiscal rules at the time of the Budget and pre-Budget report,"

"He has been a very good leader, but we have had a slow hemorrhaging of support and confidence. A lot of damage has been done. I don't think that the leadership is sustainable."

"His credibility isn't quite what it used to be. Playing games with rules doesn't make people trust you."

"It's a tax-cutting measure and we should have made that clearer."

"Gordon Brown is in serious trouble for the first time as chancellor because of problems of his own making."

"Many voters still...associate us with high taxes and big spending."

"So I went into government with a clear mind about what the problems were, and what needed to be done."

"When Gordon Brown becomes prime minister, the balance sheet that reflects his economic stewardship could look very sickly indeed. He could become Labour's biggest liability, not its most marketable asset."

"In my job I meet many outstanding, world class, British based companies. But we need more companies and more jobs in the companies we have."

"I've always been comfortable working with women and I've had two happy marriages. Draw what conclusions you like from that."

"The degree of leverage now being reversed is staggering, and the underlying global imbalances - notably between the savers and the spenders - will require long and painful adjustment."

"Britain is no longer one of the world's price setters. It is painful. It is a challenge to us in government to explain all that, and it is a pity that the political class is not preparing the public for it to understand how massive the problem is."

"My time at Shell was a most valuable experience because it taught me to look at the world in a long-term way. Shell takes a 20-year view on events and plans for different scenarios. It makes you see the world as a kind of large matrix."

"We've been a bit too defensive about the European Union rules. We don't want to become protectionist and nationalist in the way we buy things but we think we could do a lot more to promote British business through procurement."

"Regulators are a backstop: they don't own banks. The governance at the top of our leading banks has been shown to be lamentably weak. No one at the top of Barclays will take responsibility for systemic abuse."

"You can't win with some people. If you're not in government, you're criticised for being not serious. If you are in government, you're criticised for wanting power. That's the Labour party's line of attack, and it's a bit ridiculous."

"No, and in fact I get a bit frustrated, because I'm actually quite good at one-liners, and I've had hundreds of them over the years, and they sink without trace, and I get very frustrated. Every party conference I really work on the speeches, and I always have two or three things I'm quite proud of, and no one ever remembers them."

"We do recognise that there are areas where the current financial services market, the banking market, just isn't working for chunks of the British economy."

"We need a new British business bank with a clean balance sheet and an ability to expand lending rapidly to the manufacturers, exporters and high-growth companies that power our economy. Today I can announce we will have one."
