No matter whether you abreed with his views or not. He will be missed by both sides of this house and our thoughts are with the right honorable member and other members of his family at this time. Im sure the house would also join ming tribute to the pgb Paralympic Team following Great Success at the sochi games. Kenny gallagher won our first ever gold medal at the paralympics. Mr. Speaker this morning i had meeting with ministers and colleagues and in addition to my duties to the house i will have such further duties today. Mr. Speaker i think the whole house want to associate themselves with the Prime Minister and the remarks on congratulating the paralympics team. Of course the paralympicsed in buckingham. Mr. Speaker, today unemployment has fallen 63,000. This has been evident in where we have growth in the private sector continue. Does my right honourable friend agree with me that we must sustain this growth by continuing to tackle the deficit , the pork industry and continue with
I believe that senator schumer has concluded that he could taunt the leadership in the house of representatives, and that includes our speaker of the house, into brigham necessary at this legislation to the floor of the house because if it does, and if it should pass, the senate would conform with any amnesty legislation because they are controlled by democrats. And i have long known and long been restrained by people in my own party, mr. Speaker, from laying out the argument as to why almost every democrat i know wants open borders and amnesty and a neverending supply of illegal aliens in the United States of america. Its a pretty easy formula to figure out, especially if you sit here for 10 or a dozen years engaged in hearings and debate on a weekly basis, you begin to hear the threat of their conversation and you begin to understand the real truth behind their motives. And it works out to be this. Of course there are a large number of Illegal Immigrants in the United States. We have
To enter, because they are [indiscernible] on the issue of territories being shifted around, for example, to that. I dont think youll find the chinese standing up and shouting for the russians. Anyone else . Roger . In terms of the second part of the question, it is hard to understand exactly what pivot to asia meant. It was a phrase and it has floated out there and there have been meetings about it. It is not altogether clear, to me, at least, what it has meant. But i think what president putin has presented the west with is a strong case for looking again at the transatlantic alliance, looking again at the defense budget, looking again at the fact that the european neighborhood is not so safe and secure that we can simply transfer our attention elsewhere. I think china has a very ambivalent response to what has happened. It doesnt like borders changing. They have abstained. That is an indication. I do not expect a scenario of world war iii. I do not expect some chinese move on taiwan

Wayperson standing in the of making progress. That would be the speaker of the house. I know in his heart his intentions are good. We just hope that we will see before the one year is out from the senate bill some son of life, some sign of intention, some bill that can come to the floor. Scheduledis and even on a bill that could possibly take us to conference. It is clear that their intention is to do nothing and that is totally unacceptable. We have a bill, 200 cosponsors, hr 15, including three republicans. Many more republicans told us they would go for the bill. Give us a vote, mr. Speaker. The votes are there. Give us a vote. In another display of industry and dash of indifference to the needs of the people, republicans are proposing to take food out of the mouths of our chosen once again. The agriculture budget would overrule doctors so that schoolchildren will eat fewer fruits and vegetables and admit moms and babies get more potatoes. Potatoes are not a bad thing. It is a stabl
