"It's important though, and I accept this, that they [the Red Cross] don't support any political party and I've made sure that that's been taken down."
"Some of these stories about me feel like scraping the barrel. Owners of the right-wing media, multi-millionaires and billionaires, are worried about the rise of the Green Party."
