Can the Prime Minister tell us for the next parliament, what is more important for him on forces on tax column. What is some. Is combining Economic Security and National Security and the two go together. We inherited a 38 Million Pound black hole in the Defense Budget and because of stewardship of the economy with charges from this government we fill that gap and in defense, our economy is strong and the country is safe. My right hon. President , the post office mediation scheme the post Office Sacked the independent investigators told them to destroy all their papers. My right hon. Friend agreed it is essential second sight second report should not be suppressed but in thes starting with hon. Member west and select committee. My right hon. Friend raises concerns about the post office, and the post office mediation scheme. It is an issue the Business Select Committee is taking evidence on and should be given all what relevant information. This is about this concern to make sure the Business Committee can do its job properly. Ed miller brand. Less than two months ago the Prime Minister ordered a debate between me and him. He said it was game on. Did he lose his nerve . Did he want to debate . Why offered date. The twentythird of march. Why wont he say yes to it . I will be at the debate, at the debate on april 2nd. I am asking him about a debate between him and me. The original proposal for the two wage debate didnt come from the or the broadcasters but from him, mr. Speaker. He said this. I suggested we need a debate within two people debate each other. A good proposal then, a good proposal now. And what is he saying today . He said any time any place anywhere. I told him the twentythird of march. I tell him what has changed. We have a situation where it is obvious, you cant win without the s p. He says we need the two leaders who can call a truce the we examined. Lets have the debate. He says it is all about leadership. He said it is about him and me. Nobody in the house of commons, and nobody in the houseorder nobody in the house of commons should be shouted down. I have news for members however long it takes. It is not going to happen. Members will be heard. These are pathetic feeble excuses. There are no circumstances debate me head to head. And no plans and no teams and no clue of running the country. The truth is they are now saying they cannot win the erection. This is what they put out in scotland. The s and p might do this at the general election. We need to stop the tories being the largest party. Theyre trying to crawl through the gates of downing street. What he is going to do is ruled that out. Theres only one person the pairing for this. He is not going to be able this is what he says the last general election. He says we have the opportunity to debate Prime Ministers questions but that is a different matter for the Television Debate general elections have raised. When parliament is not sitting and people are most recessive to engage in polity of discussion, mr. Speaker, you lost to the deputy Prime Minister last time. And might lose again. The future of a Television Program i want to talk about the future of a country. More questions three weeks ago, talked about jobs. And he cant talk about inflation because it is at a record low. And to examine pockets. And is so confident why is he chicken inaudible the debate . And how long, mr. Speaker . I tell you why this matters. Because it goes to his character. It goes to his character. His feeble excuses, instead of these ridiculous tactics, why doesnt he have more backbone and turn up for a head to head debate with me anytime anywhere any place. Tell him what goes to character, someone who is prepared to crawl into downing street an alliance with people, what a despicable and weak thing to do. Risking our defenses, risking our country, risking our United Kingdom. If he had an ounce of courage. There is only one person with the integrity of the unaided kingdom, it is this useless Prime Minister. That question will be heard. The noise calculated lead being made by some members on both sides of the house is a disgrace to the house of commons. The right hon. Gentleman will be heard and the Prime Minister will be heard. That is the end of the matter. Theres only one person who is a risk to the integrity of the country and that is the Prime Minister. On a head to head debate we learned something about him because like all boules when the heat is really on he runs for cover. He wont take it. Anytime anyplace anywhere but he wont take it. The truth is they have nothing to say on politics, nothing to say on the economy. Their only way into the downing street is on Alex Hammonds coattails. An alliance between people who want to bankrupt britain and people who want to break a briton and the british people will never have it. Thank you, mr. Speaker. On the 26 of march, the inquiry which has been knocking at the issue of blood in scotland will finally reports, like the implications for the United Kingdom. It is highly unlikely there will be up response. My right hon. Friend who has taken a personal interest over 100 members of the house, given assurance the market will not split from his agenda or the governments agenda and as soon as possible in the new parliament there will be an intent at closing down this tragedy in our country. The right hon. Gentleman who has led on this issue, and every constituency in the house have constituents who had hepatitis c from all age ivy because of contaminated blood coming to their surgerys, and tell very moving stories. It is right to wait for the inquiry and that is not an excuse because i want us to take action. Not sure the deal will never fully satisfy those who want this wrong to be rated but as a wealthy successful country we should be helping these people more, we will help these people more. We need heroes first. Albert caldwell. Will for the last election, the Prime Minister would comments to cut immigration to see what has gone out. Net immigration is three times higher than he promised. Migration from outside the European Union but inside the European Union we created more jobs than the rest of the European Union put together and so now what we need to do is to reform welfare to make sure the people and come to other European Countries cannot claim Unemployment Benefits leave after six months without a job and have to work four years before they get tax credits. That is when you get if you get a conservative government after the next election. Barry mccloud. Celebrating International Womens day, the Prime Minister is to be congratulate in making it happen for women. More at work than ever before. More females than ever before. Given that women are poor for the longterm economic plan support the women and equality to make sure future governments do that. I join her in integrating that but there is still disadvantage and barriers we have to breakdown. There are more women in work and never before. The pay gap has been eradicated. There is more we are doing to help with child care and people with caring responsibilities and also try to help women around the world not least by campaigning and working to cut out at gm and an end to the horrors of forced marriage. It is a good record in womens rights not just in the u. K. But right around the world. Let me share my admiration for giving out food parcels to families and will he tell his familys why 30 years after the miners strike our community having to compensate for a heartless helpless government, he wont go head to head. I tell the lady what we inherited because we have seen unemployment come down by 44 . In the northwest we have seen 124,000 more people in work. Those are people able to provide for their families. That is what is happening. A growing economy left by the hon. Lady and her party. Thank you, mr. Speaker. We could be rightly proud of our Technology Research base, but Government Spending in this important area is falling behind. When my right hon. Friend is returned as Prime Minister a real time increase, maintaining world saving in sciences helping to create highpaying jobs we need to deliver our longterm economics. My right hon. Friend is right to mention science. We ring the science budget during this parliament because it has been essential to fuel the modern manufacturing in the economy that we want to see. You will also see x initiatives the alan caring institute, all of these Big Investments in science and the next parliament. Caroline lucas. In trenching market structures, pandering contracts to the private sector also 10 billion pounds a year. Why dont you think that money would be better spent on patient care . What we have than is saved money by cutting out bureaucracy so we are seeing 4 billion pounds go into the and h s but the if the hon. Lady is saying theres no location at all where anyone from the independent sector or the charitable sector or the voluntary sector can help in our in age as i think she is wrong. The mary kerri cancer care, helping the end of life, the idea that theres only one way to deliver health care in our brilliant and age as expanding under this government is completely wrong. Despite record numbers of new jobs people with a learning disability console find it tough to get to the work. Join me in welcoming low as zone which will recognize the commitment of local employers to people with a learning disability, and the ability that is too often hit. I join my right hon. Friends in praising the inclusion zone which is happening this friday. We need to build on the success we have already with employment of disabled people up 141,000 over the last year, but this is where we need not just a change in action but in culture which is why Visibility Campaign is so important to encouraging employers to join in and give Employment Opportunities to disabled people. We have over a thousand employers committing to change their practices with disabled people and i want to see this go right across the country. I am sure the Prime Minister will congratulate me which the competition from the london i of the eiffel tower become the best international attraction. The much bigger stability of economic progress is being jeopardized by promises made by the agreement. Let me raise the titanic project exhibition. It is absolutely brilliant in terms of visitor attraction and another reason to visit belfast for people not just around the United Kingdom but around europe and around the world. I agree with her that what matters is implementing the agreement and everyone should do what they signed up to do in that agreement. I know my right hon. Friend and secretary is working hard to make sure everyone fulfilled their pledges. Will the Prime Minister join me in paying tribute to the many dedicated health professionals, and does he agree with me the decision to double 6 billion pounds worth of an age s spending, to better integrate Health Care Services and secure from more positive longterm funding arrangements for the local hospices. Is another good example of something that provides vital health and social services in our country which is not necessarily owned and operated by the end h s. I am not parent who used to hostage in oxford regularly and was amazed by the brilliant works that they do so what we have done is allocated 1 did billion dollars of Capital Funding since 2010. And childrens hospices, and an age as money is more available to hospices and the manchester decision, the Greater Manchester decision is a way of making sure decisions are made between local authorities and the and h s and close to the patients theyre serving. Thank you, mr. Speaker. A looming deficit of 200 million in forfeiture in three years time. Ten more of these were commissioned last year. And local help economies around the country. After repeated stonewalling, Health Ministers are saying, quote, consultant found were not in commission to the local Health Summit as described in the questions. Can i ask the Prime Minister why is the government engage in a coverup of what lies in store for large parts around the country. Theres a pattern which is waiver in staffordshire are determined to frighten people about the future of the n h a and they are the last people who should do it. After the appalling mess they made in staffordshire. We are seeing more money going into the any chance and a strong future which we continue as long as we are in this place. Mr. Speaker this is the third time in four months any testing once letting down the 180 or so people with diseases that are outside the house today who were failed by a flawed process. Some of those children lose access to their drugs from may and their conditions will deteriorated irreversibly. Can you tell me in that time will he announce if there will be funding for these drugs for children and people need . These are very rare and debilitating conditions and there are drugs that can help the children who have these conditions. My understanding having looked at this with health and science ministers met with their families, and my understanding is ben h. S. England is holding a review, the review will be completed by the end of april. Companies that currently funding these drugs until the end of mesa i dont see any reason there shouldnt be continuity of care and continuity of drugs and that is what i hope we can achieve. 2 of gdp on defense is not only significant as part of our next commitment but an important commitment to be a reliable ally. Only last september the Prime Minister still thought he was important and other countries in britains commitment, not just a little bit embarrassed about that . This country met nato commitments not only for 2 but to spend the money on deployable equipment and forces which is just as important a commitment. What i would say to the hon. Lady is how does she feel about her leader contemplating a deal with the s p to strip the country of their defenses . That is what theyre prepared to do. He says very clearly they are only trying to be the largest market, not to win a majority. That is the risk we face. No protection for our country. With unemployment falling, enterprises withstanding, 310 new businesses being created. Will my right hon. Friend described to the house which Government Policies will see this recovery continuing so that the irresistible and unstoppable case is made to happen . I commend him on the consistency of his campaign to be recognized in this way. He asked me what policies will make a difference and bring businesses, cutting the jobs tax of businesses and charities the lowest rate of Corporation Taxes in the g7. That is helping. We are furnishing National Insurance contributions for under 21s, extending doubling the Small Business rate relief. All of these things, sticking to our longterm economic plan as the imf and the visit fis, to make sure the south end can continue to grow and perform well. Thank you, mr. Speaker. In protecting universal benefits the Prime Minister says there is dignity with that. Retired consistency, what is the point when the losses are even even trains . [laughter] the conservative proconsul. For medicinal money. For about 10 . Will blow Prime Minister do the right thing. The honorable lady needs to bring her question to a close but that question notwithstanding display of considerable rudeness will be heard. That is the end of it. I dont care how long it takes. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Will the Prime Minister do the right thing and ensure concessionary travel for all pensioners is fair and equitable . It is the responsibility of the county council. The point made was a fair one. I talked about dignity and security in retirement because we have kept our commitments and upgraded the pension so pension is in her constituency 950 pounds more in terms of state pensions than when i became Prime Minister in 2010. We committed to keeping the freedom of charges and the beach and everyone of those promises or beyond that by saying they dont need to buy an annuity their money, their savings, they can spend as they choose. This has been a government that recognizes people reserve the dignity and security and we delivered in full. 75 contained asbestos. 20 teachers a year are dying of exposure to asbestos. Children are known and particular the admirable. Will the Prime Minister ensure the government publishes is completed policy review toward the solution. Hon. Friend raises a very important issue which was well broadcast and covered on the media but in the last couple days. That is why were carrying out a review going through all the schools and we will publish it in due course and actually we will have to take it. Mr. Speaker i was thinking of raising with the Prime Minister the conservative longterm economic plan. [shouting] pinocchios nose grows longer and longer. I thought we would just put these questions together. And ask the Prime Minister whether he shared my imminent release that neither he nor i will have to pencil in 12 00 noon on wednesday any longer. I take this opportunity as he will be shortly leaving this house to pay tribute to the right hon. Gentleman. I will never forget as a new bank venture in 2001 seeing him in the light of the appalling terrorist attacks that have taken place across the world, strong leadership he gave on the importance of keeping, a remarkable man and i remember in Home Affairs SelectCommittee Even though he couldnt see what we all work, what who was concentrating and who wasnt. I dont know how he has this extraordinary gift but he is an extraordinary as the Prime Minister during his conference speech. On may 7th, the opposition on may 8th. Can i put it to the Prime Minister the outcome could be more unpleasant. And go to bed with the bar raj not only wake up with the lead opposition but also end up and examined. Who knows what you could wake up with, it may be nigel, it could be any one of the people. It is an option too. The confidence of the conservative. And the chaos of the alternative. Gregory campbell. Once more had the section of this issue but under the spotlight as members of law are a standing accused of holding in courts, will the Prime Minister helped to establish cross border inquiry with power to call key witnesses in order to bring some form of closure and justice to young people particularly who have been abused and their abusers have been sheltered by the ira . I will look at it, what the right hon. Gentleman said. There are a set of measures and proposals to try to deal with the issues of the past in a fair and accountable way. This is one such issue that could be dealt with in that way. A proud history of the armed forces. And 420 Million Pound contract, with aerospace to preserve the link. With that in mind will the Prime Minister reassure us of his commitment to defense spending and the Defense Industry. We have said the 160 billionpound Equipment Program over the next decade is fully protected and grow in real terms and having been recently to see for myself the new docks that are being put in to welcome of the Queen ElizabethAircraft Carrier and a massive investment that will go in force in terms of should servicing and our own constituencies that will benefit from this chinook contract, new order of chinooks pumping money into our Defense Industry and also leading to the trading of apprentices and jobs and livelihood for many years to come. A couple with two children with a man earning 25,000 pounds, a woman and 10,000 pounds 9,470 counts worse off in tax credits if they stayed together if they break up. Is this brutal attack on working families yet another reason we wont go head to head in the free Election Debate . It held all couples by lifting the first 10,600 balance out of tax where the first government introduce a married couples tax allowance which i seem to remember he voted against so he cares about couples he cares about commitment, he should be voting with us. Thank you, mr. Speaker. It is an honor and privilege to meet a member of parliament, particularly proud, there are more doctors and nurses here, the number of schools with improvements. Most importantly unemployment has fallen to the lowest level since constituency records began in 1983. Does the Prime Minister agree with me, is not just rhetoric but it makes a real difference to people on the ground, gripping the economy and the deficit and having effect of longterm economic life. My hon. Friend, thanks for all the work but the claimant count has come down by 70 since the election. The long term count had come down by 64 and working with greg tracy who worked hard to make sure it continues to benefit longest economic plans. Thank you, mr. Speaker. This could be might last Prime Ministers question after 20 years representing bradford my retirement plan. I congratulate him not only in his service but winning by the election. Any of us who have taken part, i remember the bradford election not entirely happily from my point of view, knows what daunting prospects there are. We all have plans after may 7th people we want to spend more time with and less time with. I got a little and you got one too. The Scottish National party has been licking their lips in public at the prospect of mass mailing, one of the two main parties and abandoning the replacement. And if he is still Prime Minister as he should be, that he will certainly ensure that the main gate contract submarine. I can reassure my hon. Friend, for me try and and its replacements are non negotiable. They are a vital part of this nations security. Let me remind the Party Opposite this is the leaflet going out before scotland that says this. And the general election we need to stop the tories being the largest party. They have given up, they have given up the majority. They were on the coattails and put our country at risk. The british people will never have it. Mr. Speaker. 17,000 Police Officers have gone in this parliament
