Britain is a great country. We can more or less say what we like, and we can walk down the street without anyone trying to kill us. I know it's tough for some people, but generally we live in a caring society. We live in a great country, but we're no longer a great power. Part of the problem with some elements of the European debate is that they hanker for the days when we were a great power. Those days are gone, and they went a long time ago.

You can see it all around. The whole world is a forest now. The air is fresher. More trees, more oxygen.

There are so many different elements to surfing. Small waves, big waves, long boards, short boards. This makes it a sport you can share with people.
