Can the primus or explain to that teenagers family why she is focusing a government of paralysis potato failed to tackle Violent Crime . I say to the honorable gentlemen we are all concerned by the crime we have seen. We are all concerned and our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of the victims and too many lives are being cut short and those futures are cruelly robbed from those individuals and their families. We have not failed to act on this. We have been acting on this. We have insured that we are working across the board because it takes all society to work on this issue. It is not just an issue about policing. We made more powers available to police. It is just an issue about policing, we need to ensure that young people do not carry knives. We need to ensure that young people are taken away from crime meaning dealing with drugs, dealing with gangs. We have provided more funding for police, we provided to the police and the labour party voted against that. What message does the Prime Minister have are the people of hong kong at a difficult time. I think my right honorable friend for raising this issue. I am shocked as members across the house have been, the use of violence, the vast majority of the hundreds of thousands who marched peacefully, this week at anniversary on the handover of hong kong is a reminder of the importance of the rights and freedoms in trying in the joint declaration and it is vital that hong kong gaps high degree of autonomy and the rights and freedoms set down in the joint declaration are respected. I have raised my concern directly with chinese leaders and the foreign secretary and other ministers and we will continue to do so. Jeremy corbin. Thank you, mister speaker. Im sure the whole house will want to express their condolences to the families of those rail workers hit and killed by a train this morning. There has to be a full investigation into this but our thoughts must be with families and friends of those that were killed and injured. I join the primus and others in congratulating reverend rose hudson wilkie, the bishop of dover, she has been brilliant as chaplain to the house but also brilliant when she shows such empathy for people. I think we must wish her well on her way and im sure she will do really well. I would like to congratulate the england womens Football Team on their successful journey to the semifinals and the men in the current match against new zealand which is 1341 at the moment. The prize this weekend is a source of great enjoyment. You think of all those who suffered in the past who tried to defeat homophobia in our society and enjoying the streets of london this weekend. Mister speaker, chancellor says a no deal brexit would cause a 90 billion pound hit to the public finances. The former foreign secretary says concerns about no deal are conflicted hysteria. Who does the Prime Minister think is right . I say to the honorable gentlemen i share the remarks he made in relation to the incident in port albert. I say to him the figure that was quoted was publicly available at the time, it appeared in the Government Economic analysis in relation to these matters. Can i also say to the right honorable dental and that if he is worried about no deal i have done everything i can to assure a deal. I can look workers in the eye and say i voted to leave with a deal when it started. The right honorable gentlemen can to do that because he voted three times for no deal. Mister speaker, the Prime Minister should be aware that her deal was rejected 3 times by the house. When something has been rejected 3 times you might think about an alternative method of doing things. A confidential cabinet note apparently says the government is not properly prepared for no deal, nhs trust have warned it would pose a major risk to nhs services. And, mister speaker, representing uk manufacturers, recently set a direct link between politicians talking up the prospect of no deal and british firms losing customers overseas and people losing their jobs make uk guilty of conflicted hysteria, or is it speaking of members and legitimate concerns right across the Manufacturing Sector . Business organization after Business Organization showed earlier this year they wanted people in the house of commons to vote for the deal so we could leave. She couldnt get her own partys support or the opposition partys support either. And, mister speaker, as the danger of no deal ever looms, toyota and bmw have said no deal would threaten their continued presence in the uk. The society of Motor Manufacturers said leaving the eu without a deal would trigger the most Seismic Shift in trading conditions ever experienced and, mister speaker, within the last week, their decision to produce the new astra will be conditional on the final terms of the uks exit from the eu. So what can the Prime Minister say to workers elsewhere and order the right honorable gentlemen will not be shouted down under any circumstances whatsoever. If you are shouting, stop it. You can do better and if you cant, it is about time you did. Jeremy corbin. I was going to say to the Prime Minister, why doesnt she speak to both of the candidates to succeed her and remind them that as they trade insults over no deal it is thousands of jobs that are at risk the more they ratchet up their rhetoric. The right honorable gentlemen is saying what what i say to workers . Here is what i say. I and the vast majority of conservatives in the house voted to protect their jobs. The labour party, the labour party went three times against appeal. The labour party went three times for no deal. The threat is from the labour party. Very over excitable, calm your self. Jeremy corbin. This is about protecting jobs and living status, not pressing out without detail. And with tariffs up to 40 on some basic foodstuffs can the Prime Minister set out exactly what impact no deal would have on food prices and the farming industry in this country . The honorable dental and claims protecting jobs and living standards. It is not only voted three times for no deal, therefore putting jobs under threat but also consistently on a number of occasions voted against the very tax cuts that help people to maintain their living standards, take no lessons from the labour party about living standards. As i recall it was this party that put emotion forward to take no deal off the table. Managing director of birds i said no deal would have 20 for foodstuff instantaneously and no deal would be very damaging. Both of the candidates claim they will renegotiate the backstop. Can she confirm section 12 of the Eu Council Decision to extend article 50 rules out reopening the Withdrawal Agreement and therefore the backstop . I dont think i need to tell the right honorable gentlemen what was in the council conclusions, i made those clear in the dispatch box in this house was the right honorable dental and says the labour party put emotion to abandon no deal off the table to this house, when it came to the vote that mattered, that actually have an impact, the labour party went against them. We made it very clear what the danger of no deal is and we will do everything we can to prevent a no deal exit because we know the damage it will do. This government comprehensively failed on brexit. It has fallen off a cliff. No deal threatens to crash the economy. Two leadership candidates threatening no deal and competing with each other. The speaker is irrelevant. The two candidates to succeed her only got fantasy plans. Does the Prime Minister accept the best thing to do would be to go back to the people and let them decide which way we go. Can i say, i made the points in answer, leaving the European Union with a deal, you have to vote for a deal. What they consistently refused to do. Another question for the labour party on this, with all this talk about no deal, the question is where does the labour party stand on brexit . The shadow foreign secretary doesnt support brexit, the shadow chancellor doesnt support brexit. The labor secretary leader doesnt support brexit. Labor wants to block brexit and that would be a betrayal of the view. Thank you, mister speaker, thank you, mister speaker. The district has been working hard preparing for the creation of unitary authorities they and the people of the county need and deserve the certainty of the orders being laid before parliament. Can i ask the Prime Minister to pledge these will be brought forward literally . Thank you, mister speaker and i think my honorable friend for raising an important issue of concern in his constituency and elsewhere in northamptonshire. New authority will be a significant step toward businesses can in future have the sustainable highquality local services they deserve. Officials are working hard with the council on the details of secondary legislation and our aim is as soon as practical both parliamentary debate and parliamentary approval. Ian blackburn. Can i join the Prime Minister in welcoming to london, throughout that, the largest lgbt group in parliament. These are numbers, a review into devolution is nothing more than an act of sheer desperation. The Prime Minister is running scared of the people of scotland. Does the Prime Minister think the future of scotland should be decided by the people who live and work there or by her property . The future of scotland was decided by the people who live and work there, it was decided in 2014 when they decided they wanted to stay as part of the United Kingdom. The private distillate at the opinion poll, the majority scotlands first minister was explicitly clear when she said it is a funny scottish people. To consider and decide what future we want for our parliament and our country. Can the primaries to tell us will is review into devolution, include the views of would be successors but these scott would never be Prime Minister and westminster should take off Office Support doing her job. This review would be part, the real legacy of this Prime Minister is shutting down scotland and ignoring the will of the scottish parliament. And it was clear they never will. There is no review in this, theres only one party in this house who wants to stop it is in scotland, the Scottish National party. Iran, continues to use all matters including increasingly significant cyber capability to destabilize the middle east and pursue its ambition to be a regional superpower in the middle east. With the Prime Minister agree with me that a cyber armed iran is equally as dangerous as a Nuclear Armed iran and we need to do more all that we can necessary with our allies to combat this increasing threat from iran in cyberspace . Your right to raise concerns about the destabilizing behavior of the region that our objective continues to be to work with International Partners to find solutions and the escalate tension but he is also right to raise the issue of cyber capability. We have dedicated capability in cyberspace through National Defense Cyber Program and last year, in support of nato operations he talks about working with others, we were the first nation to do that and we will continue to ensure we have effective Cyber Capabilities which can be deployed at a time and place of our choosing across the full range of international threats. The Prime Minister hopes it will be part of her legacy. Many of us hope we achieve that objective sooner. It needs policies to match that ambition. Onshore wind farms will help settle the Climate Crisis and reduce prices for consumers, it has overwhelming public support. That she agree now is the time to scrap barriers at the lowest level since 2011, restore subsidies for wind farms and allow to compete in the contract of different options. Can i say to the honorable gentlemen the committee on Climate Change was clear the 2050 was the right target date for net 0 emissions and can i also say there is no ban on onshore wind. What happened in 2015 at local communities have more say on applications in their areas, onshore winds exceeded expected contributions to 2020 Renewable Energy target but at the same time batting offshore winds to remove this as the largest market in europe over the next decade. The Prime Minister has shown a commitment over many years taxing domestic violence, a measure introduced in 2012, 2014, and 2015, the groundbreaking strategy of 2016 on ending violence against women and girls. These worked and reduced Violence Toward women but will she tell us a little more about the bill that is about to come in, the Domestic Abuse bill, what her hopes are for that and how she feels that will continue to help victims of these crimes. Can i first of all thank my right honorable friend for the work he has done on this important issue. I am sure everyone across the house are clear that Domestic Abuse has no place in our country. Our plan to end the support of Domestic Abuse. He refers to Domestic Abuse bill that would introduce the statutory government Domestic Abuse. As we transform our response, the draft bill will be accompanied, with Domestic Abuse. 22 Million Pounds for Domestic Abuse projects across the country. Whatever abuse you face, everyone has access to certainties they need to be placed. With that constituents, arrived on kinzer transports, 18 years ago this week. It is important to learn from history, 3 years after the amendments in 2016 for the immigration bill which gave 480 places to child refugees, 220 of those have been filled. Is this important for the thousands of child refugees there are camps across europe and the middle east. We are tough on crime and compassion for those child refugees, we turn that into Public Policy that does something about it. Lord of came here to transport organized nicholas winton. In terms of helping refugees and other Vulnerable Children affected by conflict and instability. We provide asylum and alternative form of protection for 34,600 children. We are determined to continue these efforts. They can continue to rebuild their lives with families in the uk and those who qualify the right study, access public funds and healthcare and apply settlement after 10 years. We have a proud record of helping refugees and continue with that record. In addressin recommendations . I thank her for the work she did a leader of the house and the Ministerial Group looking at this issue but beyond that this issue of early years is a cause she has champions for some considerable time before and since she came into this house. I am proud 820,000 benefited from the free Early Education places we introduced in 2013. Social mobility action plan sends the clear plan for early years closing the work at age 5 and make sure where a chance gets to in life depends on individual talents, and other background and we will continue to work for my right honorable friend and others. We will continue to work with others who put a high value on the importance of early days in a childs life. 18yearold in my constituency completed their a level german. Due to the cuts, they had to teach themselves the last two terms and german teachers still in place when they turn their backs on europe, this is not all that they suggest what exists in this country, burning brighter than ever in our education system. We have is the honorable gentlemen those putting more funding into our schools and we are making that funding and distribution of that funding fairer across the country. I want to ensure every young person gets as far as their talent and hard work take them. George eustace.
