		MAWHINNEY: Well, you are assuming a certain amount in evidence that I frankly don't know whether is true or not, and I'm not going to speculate on what may or may not have happened.
		MAWHINNEY: I was not party to the discussions and so I am not going to speculate on the discussions that may or may not have taken place, but what I know is, and this is where we are today - what I know is that allegations have been made against Neil Hamilton...
		MAWHINNEY: Not least because I haven't seen the pieces of paper and if you would forgive me saying so, having seen some of the stuff that's been written this week in newspapers that are not particularly favourably inclined towards the Conservative Party, I would be even slower to make some judgements around those issues.

		MAWHINNEY: And, John, what sort of a Chairman do you think I would be if on the back of a speculative piece in a national newspaper - and incidentally, if I was to respond to every speculative piece in national newspapers or on the media I would never get anything else done- HUMPHRYS: Right.
		MAWHINNEY: John, the single most important thing about an economy that grows is a government that gets inflation down and keeps inflation down and reassures people of its commitment to keep inflation down.
		MAWHINNEY: And other countries did as well and it is worth remembering that that period in the ERM was because we were using that as a mechanism to drive down inflation.
