I have meetings with ministerial colleagues and others and furthers later today. Last week saw the eightieth anniversary of the beginning of the battle of britain. Employs 10,000 people across lancashire, taking on 250 apprentices. Will the Prime Minister come to meet these apprentices and commit to doing all he can to secure key jobs for defense exports and the program. Already, there are 1800 skilled engineers in program, 2500 next year, 800 of those in his constituency and i look forward to his constituencies at the epicenter of the development of the next air program. Thank you. Over the last fume and, measures announced by the government, the decision last week not to provide sector specific support to those most at risk could end up costing, one of the sectors, aviation has seen huge redundancies announcing 12,000 redundancies verging on 3000. If the governments priority is to protect jobs, why did the chancellor not bring forward sector specific deals that could have done precisely that. Dont want you to underestimate the scale of the challenge this country faces and that is why the chancellor has brought forward a range of measures, the Job Retention and a huge amount to support the aviation sector. One of the companies has not come out of the process after extremely difficult but in the end productive conversations, helping companies through it, helping our people through it, has to work out whether you support or oppose the governance program. Last week the shadow chancellor, supported the program, he says he opposes it. Such rhetorical nonsense. It is perfectly proper and right to set out part of the package to highlight where the reporters. And 10,000 people lost their jobs. And 3. 5 million next year and i want to question, alongside 12,000 redundancies, va is trying to force through the rehiring of the remaining 30,000 workers on the worst terms and conditions is totally unacceptable, and they removed them and change their terms conditions. To make sure actions like this cannot be allowed to stand without consequences for landing spots. To keep then in employment where they can. British airways and many other companies are in severe difficulties at the moment. With a magic wand we cannot assure every single job that was being done is retained after the crisis. What we are doing. And the Job Retention bonus and a massive program in investment, to build and create jobs jobs jobs. And the worst terms and conditions and she should call it out. Yesterday the governments Expert Advisory Group was to report on the challenges in winter. They were asked to do so by the office of science. It was a reasonable worstcase scenario including seasonal flu. It set out strong recommended actions to mitigate the risks. The report was clear, july and august is appear go of intense preparation, the primus to make clear he intends to implement the recommended actions in this report in fool and at speed. Are you getting on with implementing preparations . He will know the government is engaged in record investments . The house may not realize in the last year since the government was in office, 12 there have been 12,000 more nurses, 6000 more doctors and hard work of the entire in i just we were able to prevent our Health Service from being overwhelmed and we will take steps to ensure it is not overwhelm this winter as well. Thats the whole point of this report. Hes not fully implementing it. It is vital the government lives learns the lessons from mistakes we made. One of the key recommendations in this report, commissioned by the Government Office of science, testing and tracing capacity needs to be expanded to cope with increased demands over the winter. It is not working as promised as stands today. To be significantly expanded to cope with the risks of the winter, what assurance, Prime Minister give that it sits for both purposes in the timeframe envisaged in this report this september. Once again, the test and trace operation, absolutely unprecedented scale and 144,000 people across the country have agreed to self isolate and stop the spread of the virus and the testing operation is failing to contact to get enough people to self isolate, doing fantastic work, they are getting through the vast majority of people who have the disease. Test and trace system, as good as or better anywhere in the world. And in the test and trade system. To return to the previous script and build up. The problem with the Prime Minister quoting 70 of people who were asked to self isolate is it has gone down, every week it has gone down so i wouldnt quote the labor secretary looking at the trend. Has the Prime Minister read the report setting of the worstcase scenario, have you read it . We are taking every reasonable step to prepare this country for a second spike. I may say to the right honorable gentlemen, to get behind what the government is doing or not, and previously supported the plan, supports the measure and now says he doesnt support. What he needs to do is build up the confidence of the people of this country, cautiously to get back to work, cautiously to restart their economy which we are trying to do instead of endlessly knocking the confidence of the people of this country, knocking confidence in schools and the safety of our schools and knocking confidence in our transport network. Time to decide whether he backs the government or not . To point out the problems, it is a stunning success, giving people confidence in the system, there are problems in this is what im going to do about them. It is obviously not true. This afternoon i am meeting the families, the bereaved families for justice group, wont let the deaths of loved ones in vain, what wont allow the government to risk a second wave of deaths without learning from their mistakes. What would the Prime Minister like to say to them . I join with every member of the house in mourning the loss of everybody who died in this epidemic. I can assure him and through him the victims and their families the we will do everything in our power to prevent a second spike in this epidemic. That is why we have set up unprecedented test and trace operation this, massively in the front line recruiting 12,000 mourners is part of the program, and do everything we can to protect our country and stop a second spike. Whether he wants to back the program or not. He says it is safe to go back to school, hes taking the line, and the duty cut is an unacceptable bump. They may set the brexit referendum until their troops to do the exact opposite. He needs to make up his time, which brief he takes today. More than calvin klein. We are getting on on our agenda for the country, getting this country through this pandemic and taking it forward. I say to the Prime Minister we are going to the audience isnt that way, it is this way. My constituency is home to many farms, can my right honorable friend confirm the new trade deals our government is working on will safeguard our standard and provide fantastic new opportunities for my part of buckingham sure. It will not only protect safeguards to welcome new opportunities across the uk. Tomorrow the tory government will publish legislation for its biggest paragraph since the scottish people voted overwhelmingly for the Scottish Parliament in 1997 was westminsters plan for an unaccountable body to rule on decisions made by the Scottish Parliament will not be accepted. The decisions of the Scottish Parliament must and will be decided by the scottish people. We reject any attempts of lower standards from one part of the United Kingdom imposed on scotlands, mind the tory government appeared agriculture for donald trump. Will the Prime Minister confirm the tory government once again ignoring the wishes of the scottish people and launching a hostile agenda . On the contrary, it is possibly the biggest thing to scotland and wales and Northern Ireland in modern memory. Should be celebrating the 70 pounds or more that will be transferred in scotland. What he wants by contrast is trade barriers, unelected and unaccountable people, and and not accountable. The benefits of the single market, for the european single market, and referendum results. In 1997. A fullscale account on devolution, the brexit settlement scotland rejected. And immigration system rejected and imposed on scotland, scotland rejected and imposed on scotland. No wonder, the first ministers Approval Ratings are 3 times that of this Prime Minister. Effective leadership contrasted with the bumbling shambles coming from westminster. Scotland has the right, not bureaucrats appointed by westminster. Can he guarantee his plans are not impose on scotland, scotland will have the chance to choose by ourselves. It is extraordinary for him. This place will be transferring back to brussels where they are neither elected nor accountable to the people of scotland. As for his point about respecting referendum results, mister speaker, there was a referendum of Scottish Independence on the issue of breaking up the union in 2014, it is a once in a generation event, they should keep their promises to the people of this country and the people of scotland. My constituents, a 9yearold girl with an operable brain tumor. The Treatment Options struggling to make child arrangements, to work with the family to access treatment. I thank my honorable friend, with eva, her family and how to support her and her travel arrangements. Under this Prime Minister we suffered one of the worst Death Threats in the world and europes worst death rate for health and care workers. He refused my demand for immediate inquiry and immediate independent inquiry saying it is too soon. Back in 2003 he voted for an independent inquiry, before it started. And rejecting an immediate inquiry, will he instead commit in principle to a future public inquiry, yes or no . I told the house several times, in the middle of combating, the pandemic is the right moment to devote huge amounts of time to an inquiry but we will seek to learn the lessons of this pandemic in the future and we will have an independent inquiry into what happened. After a difficult few months for everyone people with Mental Health conditions are suffering increased anxiety, the effects of isolation, month without treatment and most importantly a lack of urgent intervention. Cans the Prime Minister outline what steps the government will take to make sure people with Mental Health conditions are not left alone or behind . I think my honorable friend for campaigning on this issue which is incredibly important but particularly during lockdown we increased funding for Mental Health care but also as he notes not Publishing National strategy for disabled people which will cover all types of disability. On monday in announcing new immigration rules that prevent people from coming to work in social care, care workers should be paid more. Thats right. They should. The chair of the Government Migration Advisory Committee said they should receive 50 more than current rates. The government is the primary funder of social care. With a Prime Minister provide additional money to pay those higher rates . We have already taken steps to support local authorities to another 3. 2 billion to support them, 600 Million Pounds contribution to fight infection and we are proud of what our social care workers to and what the government has done in sharp contrast to the previous government is not only introduced a National Living wage but we have increased by the biggest ever amount. On friday the last surviving Group Captain, John Hemingway turned 101 in the week that marks the eightieth anniversary of the start of that Pivotal Campaign and in contrast he will not seek any recognition for himself but we ought to shine a spotlight on those who defended frame, particularly those who fell. With the Prime Minister give some thought to how we might recognize Group CaptainJohn Hemingway not for himself but as the final representative of the few. I will think about what we can do as he knows these matters for the committees which are independent of government and i urge him strongly to make his representation for them. Last month the chancellor received a letter requesting urgent action after 18 months of waiting. 6000 jobs, as this constantly continues and it is called ridiculous by the chief executive of the chamber of commerce. The vital city deal. I know weve done a number of great deals in scotland and we intend to do more and i say to the honorable gentleman about the city deal. I referred the house to my area of interest, theres a sense of great celebration with the positive Development Consent order allowing that asset to fly once more but we have one part of the jigsaw puzzle, parkway station which was deemed desirable before the dco and now has to be deemed essential. Through Courtney Kube pressures they are unable to do this by public works and loan to support the final part of the jigsaw. Can my right honorable friend use the influence of the office to encourage the chancellor and ministers to fund the 17 Million Pounds to complete the regeneration of it . The department of transport received funding past railway stations assessed in the third round of the new station. I hope you will hear good news in the near future. On the 20 third of june and again the 20 fourth of june the Prime Minister said with respect to Financial Support during local lockdowns nobody should be penalized for doing the right thing. The industrial strategy wasnt able to get any details in my committee at all about this vital future local support. Lets be crystalclear, those preparing for local lockdowns, are to be penalizing workers for doing the right thing or not. We have given in addition to the 160 billion pounds of support the government has given across the country, we supported cities in lockdown with considerable grants, less Business Rates or 44 million, the best thing possible is to work hard, to get the virus done is they open up again. In my constituency there are well over 20,000 people directly employed in the aerospace and defense sectors as well as 17,000 people in supply chains in the southwest region. They were supported by them but crucial state economy of the region and our future export prospects, connectivity and sovereign defense manufacturing capability with the next generations fighter aircraft. With a wideranging support package for the aerospace industry, for competing aircraft. I will examine the strategy for polluting aircraft but long before then we are putting 3. 9 billion into the Aerospace Technology institute as i am sure he knows along with Business Enterprise and skills set up a transport, a joint task force to create just 0, a 0 emission package which this country will lead the world. Thank you, mister speaker. Last week the chancellor said they were crossing 10 billion pounds which could see many issues effectively declaring bankruptcy. Many councils are submitting that. I asked the Prime Minister will chancellor, save local counsel about supporting what has provided enough for vulnerable communities and will not need to do that in another era of austerity. In bradford alone i advocated 30 Million Pounds to deal with the chancellor and billions, 4. 2 billion in support of local councils across the country. I paid tribute to the work of local councils helping to get through this pandemic and we will continue to support them. The people of south prevalent are worried about the economic effects of covid19, they had a lot of trouble. Can the Prime Minister confirm that this conservative government is throwing the kitchen sink into the fix . Not only the kitchen sink but every part of the kitchen because we are going to build build build our way forward and support the ability of 300,000 new homes a year and we are going to do everything we can to assure that we get jobs jobs jobs throughout this country whether by installing kitchen sinks or any other part of the house we will take this country forward. Thank you, mister speaker. Can i referred to the Prime Minister to the question asked by my honorable friend, due to a covid19 outbreak, we need enhanced support, the council has been brilliant, testing workforces and closing operations but there is a cost to this, to the business, also the workers put on statutory pay. Can i ask the Prime Minister to help us . Can we have daily postcode data . Can the Prime Minister commit to a package of support so businesses can close and individuals can do the right thing to benefit all of us . We are committing to sharing as much data as we have, they can get to local level and they have been and some have been doing an outstanding job in particular. We will continue to support councils up and down as they engage in local action to make sure the whole country gets back to work. Pleasure to be back. The leading producer of low emission hybrid cars in the uk. Will my right honorable friend agree with me the importance of recognizing the transition as we move through 0 emission transport going forward. Plug in cars can make a huge difference and an important part of the transition 20 emission vehicles in which this country has battery technology. The deputy leader. My constituent who just turned 17, with absolutely no treatments in 14 years. Will the Prime Minister join me in the call for research and a lake to be shown on awareness. It does not have to be a heartbeat the daniel and his family are facing today. I know everybody will sympathize with daniel and his family and make representations insuring childhood brainstem, to make sure they are properly understood. Some people find they are as happy and productive as they can be at the office. Does the primus or agree with me, the worst is to follow blanket government advice to take account of safety and will he commit to revising government advice urgent. Im sure he knows from studying the governments advice, it is important business should be carried on and employers should decide in consultation with their workers whether it is safe for workers to come into work or continue working some have made huge strides in getting workplaces safe and that is the message. Be conveyed. I am sure the Prime Minister will agree according to cumberland in the report last week, it is what happened to thousands of women at the hands of medical experts. They were gaslight it and not believed. The campaign and constituent who suffered as a result to ensure that women are not denied essential care and those affected get the recompense they are due. I speak for many members in this house when i say there are direct representations for exactly the conditions that were identified by baroness cumberland and her committee and i can assure this government takes issue with extreme seriousness and i have no hesitation in the request for a meeting. I myself always with the department of health to make sure she feels we are addressing issues in the way she would want. The government wants green energy and security benefit supply and to boost economic develop into the regions and to encourage apprenticeships and Youth Employment and to increase innovation and have dynamic supply chain. Will the Prime Minister support with government financial backing the building of Nuclear Power generation facilities . We believe Nuclear Power is a significant potential for net 0 ambitions and i look forward to working with my honorable friend to ensure cumbria continues to long tradition as a pioneer of nuclear technologies. It is a week, in my constituency. It is two years and the Youth Violence commission issued a report setting out irrefutable evidence for the introduction of a cross government approach to tackling Serious Violence but the scourge across the country continues. The Youth Violence commission will issue its final report, will the Prime Minister commit that its recommendations and act immediately to introduce Public Health approach, to stop anymore families from suffering such terrible knocks . Everybodys sympathies will be with the families of the victim and her constituency and knife crime, there are two things we have to do. You need a Cross Department medical approach focused on the needs of the families who are particularly getting involved and you need to put your arms around them and keep them from being devoted into the gaining or the recourse of the problem but you also need a top policing ive been concerned that in london in particular we have not seen the approach we saw where there was a significant reduction in life crime and murder, by didnt of having proportionate policing that included the use of stop and search to stop young kids caring knives. We need 0tolerance of kids going out on the street armed with a bladed weapon. That is vital. It is shocking. It has been my experience those who are most supported, the mothers of those kids are at risk of being killed. Honorable members participating in business for the arrival of those participants.

Thank you for coming back. We appreciate it. I want to begin with an oped that you wrote regarding the the pressfings with secretary. As a reporter and president of the association, have often advocated a return of regular briefings either White House Press secretary. The merit can be debated, but i think the the whitehas a House Press Secretary job differs. It is also a public servant, whose salary is paid to the taxpayers. Their job is to inform the public. From your standpoint, we are not getting that. I am glad to see that there are briefings taking place, but if you look at the briefings, they are very short events, always almolw
