[1] In an article published on 9 September 1999, Portillo declared: "I will say what I want to say. I had some homosexual experiences as a young person." But: "I am now happily married. That is behind me now. I want it perfectly clear that all the time I have been in public life there has been nothing of this sort whatsoever. When the interviewer asked me if I had ever had any experiences at university, I said 'yes.'"
