In parliament, our round up of the highlights of the day. On this programme. Renewed anger over the involvement of private providers in the nhs, as the commons reacts to the loss of 700,000 items of medical correspondence. Are these not an example of when the ideological agenda of the Party Opposite to contract out our nhs services has failed and as a result of that the patients are suffering . What happened at sbs was totally unacceptable. It was incompetent. The First Minister Of Scotland announces a re setting of the timetable for a second referendum on Scottish Independence. We will not seek to introduce the legislation for an Independence Referendum immediately. And more new mps make their maiden speeches in the commons. Today sadly we have a society in which the middle class are told to blame the Working Class. The Working Class are told to blame the Benefit Claimants. And the Benefit Claimants are told to blame the Asylum Seekers and refugees. The rapid changes of 21st century b

I hope the Prime Minister is proud of her record of controlling Public Sector pay to the extent that hard working nurses have to access food banks in order to survive. And the frozen wages of teaching assistants, paramedics and council workers, but it is not just
Downing street has described the report as a significant contribution. I will be back at the top of the hour. Now its time for the week in parliament hello and welcome to the week in parliament. A setback for the government, as the lords gives the brexit bill its first defeat. Peers demand guarantees for eu nationals in britain. These people are not bargaining chips. Will we say, take your children out of the schools . Will we say to the elderly, please go away from our care homes . These amendments are at the wrong time on the wrong bill, on the wrong subject. Peers make their mark in a week when a Tv Documentary discloses what life is really like in the house of lords. Complete with its rather odd ceremonies. Visitors from overseas go to watch the changing of the guard or the beefeaters at the tower. I sometimes think people do like these quaintnesses. And if so, in whose interest is it to take them away . Snappy dresser and long served parliamentarian, tributes are paid to the late
