Ruthlessly adjudicating on the finer points of parliamentary procedure with your trademark tony montana scout, mr. Speaker. [laughing] nudges as a commentator offering your own opinions on the rallies, but above all as a player in your own right. Pitting every part of the chamber with your opinions, like some tennis ball machine. [laughing] delivering a series of literally unplayable, and returnable volleys and smashes. [laughing] and although we may disagree about some of the legislative innovation jeff favored, theres no doubt in my mind that you have been a great servant to this parliament and of this house of commons. Hear, hear. You have modernize your access, cared for the needs of those with disabilities, and you have cared deeply for the rights of packages that you have done more than anyone since Stephen Hawking to stretch time in this particular session. [laughing] and as what must be the longest retirement since Frank Sinatra [laughing] mr. The whole house what ton me in thanking you and hoping that you enjoy in your retirement the soothing medicaments that you [laughing] and i know members from across the aisle want to join in wishing you the very best for final in the world cup. Mr. Speaker, this morning i had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others, and in addition to my duties in this house, i shall have further such meetings later today. And dr. Alan whitehead. Thank you, mr. Speaker. I would like to fully assess myself with the comments of the Prime Minister about your service as speaker, and to wish you a long and successful life after your speakership has come to an end. Later we will be producing a strong offer on Climate Emergency and net zero and forthcoming election including a full ban on extension of extraction fossil fueled by fracking. What chances did the Prime Minister think he has a matching this offer particularly in light of the news the conservative manifesto will be written by a lobbyist for the fracking industry . Mr. Speaker, will shortly be making an announcement about fracking in this country into a very considerable anxieties. In addition to being raised by the earthquakes that followed vers fracking attempts in the uk and we will certainly be following up on those findings. Because theyre very important. I know we are concerned to bibbs roundhouse but i must say this government, nobody in our enthusiasm reducing co2. We are one of the first European Countries to commit to net zero by 2050 and that is what were going to do. We can do it because we believe in a strong dynamic economy that is delivering the solutions in Clean Technology that are absorbed by the party opposite. On behalf of these benches conifers of all wish my right honorable friend the best of good fortune on the 12th of december . Hear, hear. Last week there was some insert. There are 426 people who have very much rely upon the health grant to give them dignity, care, and support. That grant comes to an end in a few years time, mr. Speaker. As chairman and on behalf of those 426 recipients, but i urge my right honorable friend to end their uncertainty as soon as possible by signaling a renewal of that grant to give them the peace of mind which i have, hope the whole house would agree they most certainly deserve. I i congratulate my honorable friend on everything he does for his constituents and, indeed, for the victims. I can reassure him that the Current Health grant which is indeed as he rightly said subject to review in 2023, will be reviewed and then getting the confirmation of that for my right honorable friend the Health Secretary and hope you will pass those assurances to the victims. Jeremy corbyn. Thank you, mr. Speaker. [shouting] thank you, mr. Speaker here i hope youll indulge me one moment what i say a word about you. Im sure you will. [laughing] i want to thank you, mr. Speaker, for the way that youd use your speakership in the decadelong tenure you had. You have done so much to reform this house of commons, not democracy is stronger for the way you done it. You have served for ten years, given real power to back benches, fast expanded the use of urgent question which is been overwhelmingly popular with all government ministers, and opened up number the number of emergey debate which is even more popular with even more government ministers. And in the traditions of the great speaker, you stood up for parliament when has to be stood up for and i thank you for that. Because youve also carry that message into national as well and the role of parliamentary democracy and parliaments Holding Governments to account. And as we hope to form a government in the future we hope to be held to account by parliament as well. But i also think and im sure the whole house would agree with me on this, you can exit working opening of parliament to visitors, exhibitions, and children. And you reduce some of these strange customs and strange garments that people wear in this building. Its all right, its all right. I know you are all jealous of my time but its okay. And the way in which a future office, mr. Speaker, to increase diversity amongst the staff in the house and make this a much more lgbtq friendly place. Youve taken away from the Gentleman Club which happened to be in a royal palace to a genuinely democratic institution. I want you to accept our thanks and pass on our best wishes to sally, freddie, oliver and your wonderful family for the support theyve given you and with a great salvation today and im sure the whole house will join us in this is when you and i, mr. Speaker, celebrate as beating liverpool tonight. [shouting] the labour party loves lets a e and loves a bit of banter. Mr. Speaker, the Prime Ministers mr. Speaker, the Prime Ministers plan deal with donald trump means [booing] [shouting] means yet more National HealthService Money being siphoned off into private profits. Channel four dispatches reported reported that the cost of drugs and medicines has repeatedly been discussed between u. S. And uk trade representatives. Why did the Prime Minister previously say the Health Service wasnt on the table in any post brexit trade deal . Mr. Speaker, the argument that is simple, it is not on the table. And by the way i pay tribute to the officials of the nhs just done a brilliant job in reducing the cost of all candidate so made in america by the way so Cystic Fibrosis stops get the treatment they need at a cost that is reasonable to the taxpayers of this country and if he wants to know how the people of this country are able to afford these stupendous investments that we are now making in in the nhs as 34 biln times the biggest ever investment in the nhs, 14 hospitals that were building as a result, as result of the decisions that we are taking [shouting] it is because this is the party that supports wealth creation. And the reason we are able to invest in nhs is that for the last nine years this economy has been growing. It has grown by 19 since the controllers Computers First command office, and he would ruin this economy and ruin our ability to fund the nhs. That is the reality. [shouting] mr. Speaker, mr. Speaker, we all welcome the fact that provided in this country under the nhs and we thank those that campaign for it. They shame is that we are not told what the deal is with the company concerned. And as for these fabled 40 hospitals, that figure dropped to 20 and then finally dropped to six. Mr. Speaker, we learned this week that government officials have met u. S. Pharmaceutical companies five times as part of the Prime Ministers plan trade data. The u. S. Called for four full Market Access to our nhs which would mean prices to some of our most important medicines increasing by up to sevenfold. Mr. Speaker, whilst the government is having secret meetings with u. S. Corporations, its patients are they continue to suffer. Can the Prime Minister explain why the number of people waiting longer for urgent Cancer Treatment has tripled over the last nine years . Mr. Speaker, as he knows, as he knows very well, this government is investing 34 billion pounds into the nhs. We are seeing improvements in cancer survival rates across the country. We are seeing improvement cancer survival rates. Thats for the investment this government is making. Its satirical that he should get credit for cancer or other drugs delivered at a reasonable price, that is the work of the uk government. That is the work of the nhs to ensure people in this country get affordable treatment. He may not be aware of it, mr. Speaker, but the company that makes comes from america. Is he seriously forgetting, is a socially suggesting the nhs should not engage in negotiation to ensure that british patients get the drugs they deserve . If he is so phobic of American Company that he would forbid them for having those discussions . Mr. Speaker, not for the first time the Prime Minister is talking nonsense. [shouting] of course we need to import medicine from various places. I just want it to be done i just wanted to be done in an open and transparent way. I dont want secret talks between government officials on behalf of ministers with big pharma corporations in the usa. And last year, mr. Speaker, 34,000 Cancer Patients waited more than two months for treatment. And whilst Early Detection is obviously very important, the longer people wait, the less chance there is a survival from cancer. Prime minister knows that. I know that. The whole world knows that. Why cant you did and put the necessary resources into the nhs to cut the waiting time . [shouting] if he would just be patient for 30 seconds. He says, mr. Speaker, he claims, mr. Speaker, the nhs is safe in his hands. Why then has nhs privatize asian doubled under this government with nearly 10 billion pounds being spent on private companies within our nhs . Mr. Speaker, the nhs is receiving unrivaled and unprecedented sums of taxpayers money. But if you seriously saying he would not like a dentist, opticians, nurses to work with the nhs that if they keep franken must be out of his mind. [shouting] let me tell him a cancer survivor rate had increased year on year since 2010. Cancer survival rates and more and more people are seeing within the right waiting time thanks to the investments we have and i think he should pay tribute to the hard work of nhs staff and he should recognize and stop talking down their incredible achievement. And he should recognize we intend if we are come if we come back as the next government we will invest massively in that nhs and take it forward with the funds we will make available from a strong and growing economy. The reality is he would wreck that economy. Mr. Speaker, what we dont want is private Companies LikeVirgin Health care suing out nhs for contracts they didnt get. Our nhs should be focused on making people better, not the wealthy few richer. The National Health service ae department, mr. Speaker, had just had their worst september on record. This morning the Royal College of emergency medicine says this winter the nhs needs over 4000 extra beds. Could could the Prime Minister explain why under his government the number of people in england waiting for operation has now reached a record high of 4. 4 million . Mr. Speaker, theres a reason why more people are receiving nhs and thats the nhs is working hard and achieve more than ever before. If he wants to look at what, if the house wants to look will labour would be like in office can look by the way, i should say the snp government negotiate a much higher price, it occurs to me. They wait, they did come pick up the price totally wrong. He should have word with them. [laughing] but if you come if the people of this country want a horrific foretaste of what life would be like under a labour run nhs, look at the nhs in wales were all Health Targets are routinely missed. The 80 waiting targets have not been met and 2000 and impatient of patient have met since augus. Urgent Cancer Treatment, he talks of a Cancer Treatment, mr. Speaker, hasnt been better since june 2008. That is how labour runs the nhs, mr. Speaker. Jeremy corbyn. A surprising that while his government has cut so much from the Welsh Government budget. [shouting] and from a government that has cut 15,000 beds out of the nhs, that has cut 7. 0 social care, i dont know how he is got the brass to say what he is just that. The reality is, mr. Speaker, his words are hollow. Anyone whos tried to get an appointment who sees a overworked our nhs staff are when you visit a hospital, and the stress nhs staff goes through when they cant deal with all the patients that are coming in, he needs to think about this. Ill give an example. A lady wrote to me this week. Yes, its a real case of a real person. And i will quote her if i may, mr. Speaker. Jillian says my mother died in february as a direct result of the gp shortage in the uk. Last years were marred by long waits of treatments and for interventions. Whenever she got care, it was given by overstretched that very dedicated people. But it always came after painful and debilitating delays. Why should that happen to her mom or anybody elses mom . The problem is the shortage of gps, the shortage of nurses and excessive waiting time for people with very difficult conditions and deep pain, they should be sympathize with and supported. Well, mr. Speaker, are certainly say we will deal with his constituent jillions concerns, but i can tell, i can tell him, i can tell them that there are 17,300 more doctors, and over 17,000 more nurses on our wards since 2010. And i think frankly mr. Speaker it is time to differentiate between the politics of protest and the politics of leadership. He should apologize, mr. Speaker, because the attitude that unit thinker in the interest of its all very easy to say he sides russia over what happened in salisbury or to see of 196 billion pounds program of renationalization, or continually to flipflop when we are the other now leave, now we make him refusing to respect the verdict of the people in the referendum on the eu. Leadership means standing up for the people of this country, standing up for our police, standing up for our nhs can making sure it gets the funding it needs and stand up for our economy and for our wealth creators. Above all it means getting brexit done and ending the delay. The time for protest is over, mr. Speaker. Its time for leadership and that is what this government provides. [shouting] mr. Speaker, it seems a bit odd. My question, my question, mr. Speaker, my question, mr. Speaker, was about somebody whose mother died and she believes thats because of the shortage of staff within the nhs. I wouldve hoped the Prime Minister wouldve tried to show some empathy and after that question. Because gp numbers are falling. There is 43,000 nurses shortage in the nhs and it has suffered the longest spending squeeze ever in its history. Mr. Speaker, the choice that this election couldnt be clearer. [shouting] people have a chance to vote for real change after years of conservative and lib dem cut. Privatization and tax handouts for the riches. This government that supports or this election is a a once ia generation chance so and privatization in our nhs to give at the funding it needs and give the doctors, the nurses, the gps, and all the other staff that it needs. Despite the Prime Ministers denials, our nhs is up for grabs by u. S. Corporations in a trump style trade deal. Isnt the truth, mr. Speaker, order. Right honorable gentleman will not be shutting down on the 80 circumstances. He will complete his inquiry to the satisfaction of the chair, people who think otherwise will quickly learn that they are, as usual, wrong. Jeremy corbyn. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Despite his denials, the nhs is up for grabs by u. S. Corporations in a trump trade deal. Isnt the truth and the government may not like it, isnt the truth that this government is preparing to sell out our nhs . Our Health Service is in more danger than at any other time in its glorious history because of his government, his attitude, and the trade deal he wants to strike. [cheers and applause] country do a indeed agree theres a a stark choice facing this country at the next election and its between economic catastrophe under the labour party, under the labour party, 196 billion pounds program taking away money from companies of putting in their own renationalization programs, putting taxes on corporations, people, pensions, businesses and the highest level in all of your, mr. Speaker, that is a catastrophe, economic catastrophe but it is worse than that because the it also offers a political disaster. Consigning neck she would should be a wonderful year for our country to two more referendums, mr. Speaker, mr. Speaker. Another referendum on the eu because he cant make up his mind what he thinks, flipflopping his way and that and another referendum on scottish independence. Why on earth, what on earth should the people of this country spend the next year which will be a glorious year going through the toxic referendum thanks to labour . We want next you did a great you for our country, mr. Speaker. We wanted to be a great you because were going to invest more in frontline nhs services. Were going to reduce Violent Crime with more police officers, 20,000 if thats what i pledge on the steps of downing street and we didnt get were going to invest in every one of our schools, primary and secondary across the country. Thats what i pledge on the steps of downing street and were delivering it. Were going to invest in a fantastic Infrastructure Program for our country. Thats what i pledge across the steps of downing street. That is what were going to deliver. And we are going to deliver a fantastic deal by which this country will come out of the European Union, a deal that he has tried to block and that we will deliver. That is the future for this country. That is the choice this country faces. [shouting] mr. Speaker, for more than 30 years the Royal National hospital was promised a rebuilder and the conservative government we have the first days of hear, hear. To match the worldclass treatment provided by the medical team there. However, we have two problems. 11 is that the next phase is caught up in nhs bureaucracy, and sadly, two imminent nonexecutive directors have been dismissed from the board. Can my right honorable friend sweep away this nhs bureaucracy so it can provide the medical facilities that are required . And also order an investigation as to why the nonexecutive directors have been removed by the board by nhs london . Mr. Speaker, i congratulate my honorable friend whenever the campaign for his constituents in a particular for his hospital. I can assure him that we will be making sure that that hospital along with many others will be in line for the funding he requires. But may i tell him that on a specific point about the administration about hospital and will indeed be asking my right honorable friend the Health Secretary to deal with his concerns. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Can i on behalf of those of us on these benches wish you all the best for your pending retirement and salute you, sir, for the way that youve stood up for the democracy of this house and in this time of crisis . We trust that you enjoy your many passions in retirement. You will always be welcomed up in scotland and if you need you will always be welcome at [laughing] let me, mr. Speaker, let me, mr. Speaker, wish you all the best for the rugby season. Mr. Speaker, this Prime Ministers extreme brexits wrecking ball to the economy [shouting] and scotland and the United Kingdom up to 70 ilion pounds. Mr. Speaker, we can talk about the impact of brexit because they know the reality that will damage peoples lives. If the current Prime Minister is willing to throw scotland under his big red bus to deliver his brexit, no matter what the cost. Mr. Speaker, as the right honorable gentleman knows very well, the greatest damage that can be done to the scottish economy will be the reckless plan to break up the union with the uk. 60 of scotlands business, scotlands exports is with the rest of the uk. They would be throwing away not just the biggest block grant in history but, of course, all benefits of membership of the most successful Political Partnership in history from shipbuilding to building the glasco Climate Change summit next you, mr. Speaker, which will be a glory, glory up her whole United Kingdom which is come to scotland precisely because scotland is part of the United Kingdom. And they would throw all that away with that plan for borders and barracks and great and you scottish currency, mr. Speaker, or joining the euro, worse still, going into the European Union handing back control of scotland fisheries, scotlands spectacular marine wealth just in the moment that they have been one backed by this country come handy back control of those fisheries to brussels. Thats their policy, mr. Speaker. I look forward to contesting it. You know, mr. Speaker, i thought it was Prime Ministers questions, not a rant. [shouting] i have to say [shouting] order. Im seriously worried about your conditions. Calm yourself, man. Im very concerned for you. Calm down. Ian blackbird. I certainly wish all the best for his future because hes not coming back like so many of the scottish conservatives. [laughing] we hear that the Prime Minister is going to be coming up to scotland in the election campaign. Can i tell the Prime Minister hes welcome because each time you come to scotland they [inaudible] mr. Speaker, scotland we wont have it forced upon us. Isnt it clear that the Scottish National party is the only Party Standing up for scotlands interest . And respecting our democratic decisions to remain in the European Union . Mr. Speaker, this coming election will be one of the most important in scotlands history. Only a vote for the snp can secure the escape route for scotland the way from this brexit mass, from the chaos of westminster, the austerity of the tories and to protect scotlands rights to choose our own future as an independent country in europe . Well, mr. Speaker, im sorry if i seem to rant at the right honorable judgment that if i may so he doesnt rant quite a lot [laughing] about independence for scotland. He wants to consider what the snp government is actually doing, mr. Speaker, and they are wrecking and their diabolical for the scottish economy. They have the highest taxes in the uk. They are not running either health or education grid that is why smashing the union and actually when you look at the good things that are happening in scotland, it is very often thanks to scottish conservatives. [shouting] who are delivering 200 Million Pounds come 200 Million Pounds, mr. Speaker, for scottish farmers all thanks to the intercession of the scottish conservators, the biggest ever block grants from london to scotland, mr. Speaker, and, of course, it is scottish conservatives who could be relied upon unlike any other party in scotland, unlike labour, unlike snp, to keep the union together. The most successful political Labour Partnership in history. Order. The truth is one persons rant is another persons string of passion and uninterrupted eloquence. Mr. Edmonds. Thank you, mr. Speaker. As your former deputy speaker, can i say that nobody has sat in that chair who has done more to defend or promote the rights of lgbtqia people in this country at threat the will and with so may people live in fear being formed the way they are, i salute you. Thank you. Hear, hear. Prime minister, the Guardian Newspaper last week reported that the largest number of happiness people live in the ripple valley. [laughing] and and i believe you have the capacity to make them happier. Will you ensure that of the 153 extra police that are coming to lancashire, ripple valley gets its fair share, that we get our fair share of funding for Health Services like the Health Center and we get equal funding for people in our schools . And finally will the inshore that for the 57 who voted brexit and for the almost 100 who believe in democracy that after the general election when he is Prime Minister he will deliver the brexit people voted for . Well, mr. , mr. Speaker, i cn certainly give him an assurance on the second point and the only way to deliver a great brexit is to vote for this party and for this governor. I would like to make it even happier still by pointing out that only the 153 153 is just e first wave, mr. Speaker, for ripple valley in part of the 20,000 more police that we will be putting on the streets of this country. Thank you, mr. Speaker. I wont have never known this place without you here, and its going to be different. Its a delight to see your children here watching today as i know what you have a responsibility to parliament that you take your responsibilities as a parent incredibly serious also. And now to the Prime Minister. [laughing] today, today is my sons 11th birthday. Happy birthday. Thanks by the Prime Minister hundreds of children are in supersize classes and only being educated for and half days a week. I i dont want to hear his fancy stuff about brexit or russia that hes been giving from his little folder.

The honorable lady is not going to be cut off by people ranting at her. She will be heard. If the people who dont want to hear it, they are welcome to leak that i dont think she will cure and neither will honorable ladies question will be heard and at the end of it. I dont want to hear his campaign because my son will not be able to go to school on friday so his campaign does nothing for me as a parent.
