Questions to the Prime Minister. Steven metz calf. Number one, mr. Speaker. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Before answering the audible for and i know the whole house will wish to join in paying tribute to michael. He died said last week and we send our condolences to his family and friends. Michael dedicate his life to public service, diligently representing his constituency in this place for a staggering 45 years. He was a passionate advocate of the causes he believed in. These included the environment and is able to put these into practice as a minister between 19972003. This house and our politics are a poorer place without him and i know colleagues from all sides of this chamber will remember him with affection and miss him greatly. Here, here. 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. [inaudible] skimmable my right honorable friend join in celebrating that one in 10 of the worlds doctors are built in basildon . [shouting] but not an airbus. It flies without a part without built in basildon. Its also attracting from what were known or decisions such as the royal opera house. All this is leading to job creation and opportunities. Will be, therefore, to all began to ensure that britain remains a great place to do business and prosper in . Basildon has a special place in my heart. I did know all those statistics but it hasnt even more special place. I can tell them that the longterm use claimant count in his constituency is down by 42 in the last year. He spoke about what a good place britain is to do business but im pleased to say we are now sixth in the rankings in the world for the best place to set up and to run a business. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Can i start by tackling the remarks the premise made about Michael Meacher. On behalf of his constituents and the much wider community, our condolences to his family. I spoke with him last i asked them how they would like michael to be remembered. They talked about it and send a very nice message which ive agreed out that its quite brief but very poignant. This is what they said. In memory of michael. When i was young one of the things he quickly said to me was that people went into politics because the principles and wanted to change things to make the world better. But in order to get into power they would often compromise on the principles and that this could happen again and again until it eventually did get into power they wouldve become so compromised that they would do nothing with it. Those who knew michael doing us a decent, hardworking, passionate and profound me. He represent his constituency with the distinction for 45 years. He was a brilliant environment minister as the Prime Minister pointed out. He was totally committed to parliamentary democracy come and this Parliament Holding government or covenant to account, and he was a lifelong campaigner against injustice and poverty. We remember michael for all of those things. We express our condolences, express our sympathies to his family at the very difficult time. Is will be a hard act to follow but we will do our best. Here, here. Mr. Speaker, following events in the other place on monday evening at the plate acceptance from the Prime Minister of the results, can he guarantee to the house and to the wider country that nobody will be worse off next year as a result of cuts to working tax credits . What i can guarantee is that we have remained committed to the vision of a high pay, low tax, lower economy and we believe the way to make sure that everyone is better off each keep going our economy, keep inflation low, keep cutting peoples taxes and edited a National Living wage. House for our changes the chancellor will set them out in the autumn statement. Jeremy corbyn. The question i was asking was quite simply this. Will he confirm right now that tax credit cuts will not make anyone worse off in april next year of . We want people to be better off because were cutting their taxes and increasing their pay. But hes going to have to be a little patient because although these changes passed the house of commons five times which was ever enlarging majority can we will set out new proposal in the autumn statement that he will be able to study them. Jeremy corbyn. Mr. Speaker, this is the time when asked questions to Prime Minister on behalf of the people of this country. [shouting] [laughter] thank you. [inaudible] if i can continue. People are very worried about whats going to happen to them next april. What exactly does the Prime Minister mean he is considering it . Theres an autumn statement coming up, but we thought he was committed to not counting tax credits. Is he going to cut tax credits or not . Are people going to do worse off are not in april next year . He must know the answer. I will make two points. First of all we set out in our next manifesto were going to find 12 billion pounds of savings in welfare. Order. There is too much noise in the chamber. Order. The questions must be heard and the answers must be heard. The Prime Minister. Thank you, mr. Speaker. And its important point because of course every penny we do save on welfare savings we have defined in the education budget or into policing budget or in the health budget. The second point that i would make is because of whats happened in the other place of course we should have a debate about how to reform welfare and how to reduce the cost of welfare. Im happy to have that debate but, of course, it is difficult to that debate with the honorable gentleman because he has opposed every single well for he doesnt support the welfare cannot. He doesnt support the cap on housing benefit. He doesnt think that any change to welfare is worthwhile. I have to say if we want a Strong Economy and we want growth i want to get rid of our deficit, if you want to secure our country we need to reform welfare. Project. Some the new pictures some other newspapers have come out against them. He did commit to 12 a. M. Cuts but repeated and refused to say whether taxpayers are going to be part of the effect he said they work. Can he now give us the answer were trying to get today . Answer the question. The answer will be set out in the autumn statement when we set out our proposal. But i have to say to him, he has come to quite a strange set of events when you have the house of commons voted for something five times, when theres absolutely [inaudible] and the labour party is left defending, depending upon uncollected in the house of lords. [shouting] weve got a new our lives. The unelected and the unelectable. [shouting] mr. Speaker, its very interesting the Prime Minister still refuses to answer the fundamental question. [shouting] this is not a constitutional crisis. This is a crisis for 3 million families in this country, for threeputting mammas were very worried about what could happen for 3 million families who are going to worry about will happen next april. The justice secretary said in as your question on the bbc world of one, are you going to cut tax credits . The answer was we are not going to cut them. Why did he say that . What i said in the election at the basic level of tax credits would stay the same. 2780 pounds per child, it stays exactly the same. But the point is this big if we want to get our deficit down, if we want to secure our economy, if we want to keep on with secure growth from we need to make savings in welfare. Now, even with his deficit denying forever plan, presumably has to make some savings, probably spend to get if you dont save any money on welfare you end up cutting the nhs. You end up cutting even more deeply policing budget. Those are the truths. When is he going to stop his denial, get off the fence and tell us what he will do . [shouting] mr. Speaker, order. A moment ago i said the answers must be heard. The questions need to be heard. He will ask his question. It will be heard. If it takes longer, so be it. Jeremy corbyn. Thank you, mr. Speaker. I five times asked the Prime Minister today whether or not they have all been worse off if they receive working tax credits next april. He still has not been able to answer me or indeed many others. Can i put you in a question i was sent by [shouting] mr. Speaker, at may be very amusing to members opposite, but [shouting] i was sent this question by karen, and she, i quote, what is the Prime Minister punishing working families . I work fulltime and earns a living wage within the public sector. That tax credit cuts will push me and my family into hardship. Can he give a castiron guarantee, to karen come and to all the other families who are very worried what is going to happen next april to the income, how are they going to make ends meet . He could give them the after today. I hope you will. I ask them for the sixth time, please give us an answer to a very straightforward, very simple question. What i would say to karen is this. If she is on the living wage working in the public sector, next year in april she will benefit from been able to earn 11,000 pounds before she pays any income tax at all. It was about 6000 pounds when i became Prime Minister. If she is sure she will benefit from 30 hours of childcare every week. That is something that has happened under this government. But above all she will benefit because with a growing economy, because we have zero inflation, because with 2 million more people in work, because we had to drink 3 billion apprentices in this parliament and that is the fact. The reason the labour party lost the last election is ever completely untrusted on the deficit come on debt, and on a stable economy. And sense of in the deficit deniers have taken over the labour party. That is what happened when you look at their plans, borrowing forever, printing money, hiking up taxes come it is working people like karen that would pay the price. [shouting] david morris. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, in my constituency unemployment has fallen by 30 since 2010. This government has delivered the link road after six years which will create even more jobs in my area when it is completed. Does my friend the Prime Minister agreed that the conservatives are ensuring that it is back open for business the . I well remember visiting my honorable friends constituency a look at the road works that were being put in place a going to open up the port, that will help would bring for new Nuclear Power station and all the steps he wants to see. I can tell in the longterm use claimant count in his constituency has fallen by 30 in the last year. Those are all young people not able to work, able to benefit from our growing economy. Sir angus robertson. We associate ourselves with the condolences of our been expressed by the Prime Minister and leader of the opposite. Last week i asked about the tragic circumstances of a man from north london to a disabled man who took his own life after an assessment by the department of work and pensions. We know 60 investigations have taken place into suicides following the cancellation of benefits, but the findings have been published. The Prime Minister said to me last week that he would look very carefully at the specific question about publication. Will the Prime Minister confirm windows findings will be published . I will write to him about this but my memory for looking into his question afterwards is the are very good reasons why we cant publish this specific report that he talks about because it has, it has personal and medical data in it which would not be appropriate for publication. If ive got that wrong on the right to them but that is my clear memory of looking this question after last week. Thank you very much. Will a man in the West Midlands was 53 when he took his life. The corner wrote a major factor in his death was a statement had greatly reduce leaving almost destitute. His sister said its a double of a deal for going to be affected the worst. The dwp need to publish these reviews. The Prime Minister says that he is concerned by the views of the families involved. The families say the findings should be published. Will be published the findings . 3 Million Pounds are going to have their Child Tax Credits cancel. We need the answer to these questions. First of all let me just correct him on his last point. Under the proposals we put forward, those people on the lowest levels as they were protected because of the National Living wage and those people on the lowest incomes were protected because we were protecting the basic award of the Child Tax Credit at 2780 pounds. I think the other part of the question is the bit ive already answered which is my understanding but i will send him about if ive got it wrong come is there were too many personal and medical details for that to be published. I think that is an important consideration in whether deciding whether to publish something. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, id like to ask the Prime Minister about ruby your ruby is one of my youngest constituents, she is just one month old. Why should ruby face the prospect of spending her entire working life paying off the debt thats been built up by visit generation . I think ruby is absolutely right to care about ruby when we became the government, one in four pounds spent by the government was borrowed money. We had one of the biggest budget deficits anywhere in the world, and its always easier for people to say put off the difficult decisions, dont make any spending reductions. But what theyre doing is burdening future generations with debt. What i would take to the labour front bench, that is not generosity. That is selfishness. Will thank you, mr. Speaker. Thank you, mr. Speaker. [shouting] i think the honorable lady must have misheard. Innocent. Mrs. Sharon hutchins center. We all know about Prime Minister is open promise on tax credits but will the final nail in the coffin of compassionate conservatism be hammered home if you were to scrap universal Infantry School meals in the review, taking hot healthy meals out of the mouth of innocent, blameless infant children . Will be guaranteed now not to scrap the universal infant preschool meals [shouting] im immensely proud that it was a government i lead that introduced this policy. [shouting] thirteen years, 13 years of labour government. Did they ever do that . No speed and do we remember the infant new builds on the labour party . Im proud of what we have done and we will be keeping at. [shouting] stephen phillips. Thank you very much, mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my right honorable friend has demonstrated considerable leadership enjoyed a britain is the second largest donor of bilateral aid in series you. But there is another crisis going on which the world has largely forgotten about. In yemen there is an ongoing war. 1. 4 many people have been forced to flee their homes, 3 billion faced starvation, half a million children are ever some lifethreatening malnutrition malnutrition under president of the International Red cross has said in yemen after five months we are in the same position as we are in serious after five years. Please, can we do more . My honorable friend is right to raise this and we have been involved in trying to help in this situation right from the start as in syria we are a major contributor in terms of humanitarian aid. Weve made clear all of yemeni party should engage without preconditions and in good faith in piece talks to allow yemen to move towards a sustainable piece and that needs to be a piece based on the fact that all people in yemen need proper representation by their government. To our similarities with syria which is on a government on behalf of one part of the country is never going to be a sustainable solution. Cristy blackmon. Mr. Speaker, how dare anyone in this house are in a 74 a year till families that their combined income of 25,000 pounds is too much affinity give it some of the back to bounce the economy . Try to do the Prime Minister refused to put this in his manifesto because he knew he wouldnt be a lack of . Let me remind the honorable lady about the situation we inherited. When i became Prime Minister nine out of 10 families were getting tax credits including members of parliament. That is a crazy this is a we inherited. We reduce that during the last parliament, pose that is of course by labour and the snp to 610 families. Our proposals would take it down to five out of 10 families but these are not proposals on their own. They are accompanied by National Living wage for the first time. They are accompanied by allowing people to earn 11,000 pounds before paying tax for the first time. Those sorts of measures while the short family that she talks about. Michel donovan. The Prime Minister spoke movingly at conference at the plight of young people. Cant be answered, what
