Today marks the anniversary of nhs. I know members will want to join me in paying tribute to the dedicated men and women who work hard to improve lives day in and day out. Mr. Speaker, this morning i had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. In addition to my duties in his house, i will have further meetings later today. Later this week, i will attend the meeting of the g20 where i will discuss the global economy, counterterrorism and sustainable settlements with my fellowleaders. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Smashed with an ipad. Her body beaten and forced to abort a baby girl. This is only some of the Domestic Abuse my constituent has faced by her estranged husband because she has refused the genital mutilation of her daughter. She is educated, had a mortgage, and had a good job until the home office revoked her right to work. I have been writing to the home office since march and have got nowhere. What the Prime Minister intervene to stop this family being deported and this threeyearold girl being subject to female genital mutilation . Pm may i say to the honorable lady that the home secretary has heard the case that she has set out here today. The issue offemale genital mutilation is one that we are all agreed across this whole house, it is and have orange it is an abhorrent activity. It should not be taking place. Great efforts have been made over the years on strengthening the law on female genital mutilation and getting information out about this issue and trying to support people in communities where there is a practice of fgm. I think the message has to go out today, we will not accept fgm in this country. Thank you, mr. Speaker. In the last few days, Iraqi Security forces assisted by Coalition Airstrikes have made significant progress in eradicating isil fighters from mosul. This is a significant step forward in the military conflict iraq, but will the Prime Minister agree with me that the u. K. And United States and International Allies need to work with the Iraqi Government to ensure reconstruction in places like mosul as well as working with the Iraqi Government to make sure that he it is sufficiently strong to withstand the poisonous ideology of isil as we seekto defeat it . Pm may my honorable friend is right. In order to keep written safe, we must continue to attack the in iraq and syria, and the u. K. Is playing its part in one of the Seven Members of thecoalition. We have conducted over 1400 strikes. There are over 500 british soldiers on the ground fighting. But my honorable friend makes the important that is not just point about the military action that takes place. Its about how we ensure their sustainable reconstruction andrebuilding afterwords. Our troops have trained over 55,000 iraqi is. Over 169. 5iding billion pounds in humanitarian aid and a further 30 to iraq to help stabilize these liberated areas. We must work in iraq and internationally to ensure that these hateful ideologies are not able to poison the minds of people. Speaker jeremy corbyn. Mr. Corbyn let me start by wishing everyone a very happy pride month, especially those taking part in the pride march this saturday and similar marches around the country. We should be aware, the survey taken by pride in london found that half of lgbt people in london have experienced hate crime in the past 12 months. I joined the Prime Minister in wishing the nhs a very happy birthday. I was hoping she was going to say a bit more about nhs staff and their pay in her thursday briefing. After a week of flipflopping and floundering, we thought we had got some clarity from downing street at last. Announcement was that the Public Sector pay cap of 1 remains. In a rare moment of agreement between number 10 and number 11 was seen. Yesterday, we had news that firefighters are going to be offered to present this year and 3 next year. Can be Prime Minister confirm whether the Public Sector pay cut will remain for other Public Servants until 2020 . Pm may i joined the right honorable gentleman in wishing everybody who is going to take part in pride london on saturday an excellent day. Im sure it will be a very good occasion, as it always has been. Can i also say that i and all members of this house value the work that is done, incredibly important work done by Public Sector workers [shouting] pm may including those in the National Health service and others. I understand why people feel strongly about the issue of their pay. [shouting] perhaps i can just set out for the information of the house, what the current position is. We have had three pay review bodies in the Public Sector reported in march. That covered doctors and dentists, and a including nurses, and armed forces. The government accepted the recommendations in all three cases. The firefighters award is not a matter that is determined by government. It is determined by the employers. It is not subject to a pay review body. There are outstanding pay review body reports. Teachers, prison officers, police officers, and senior salaried. The government will consider those reports very carefully and will respond to them. While we do that, we will always recognize the need to ensure that we take those decisions against the need to live within our means. [shouting] pm may the right honorable gentleman and i both value publicsector workers and our Public Services. The difference is, i know we have to pay for them. [shouting] speaker jeremy corbyn. Mr. Corbyn mr. Speaker, the publicsector pay cap causes real shortages in nursing and teaching and many other professions, as well as real hardship. I had a letter last week from a teacher called david. Its all right, he is a teacher, he is doing a good job, all right . [shouting] mr. Corbyn he says, and i quote, i have been teaching for 10 years. I have seen my workload increase. I have seen more people leave the profession then start. No form of pay increase in seven years. The only Thing Holding the Education System together is the dedication to struggle on for their students and staff. He says this dedication is starting to run out. What we are doing by this pay cut is recklessly exploiting the goodwell of Public Servants like david. They need a pay raise. [shouting] speaker Prime Minister. Pm may the leader of the opposition referred to the number of nurses and teachers we have in the Public Sector. We now have more nurses [shouting] pm may then we had in 2010, more teachers in our schools. Let me remind the right honorable gentleman of why it has been necessary for us to exercise restraint in public spending, including capping Public Sector pay. [shouting] pm may it is because we inherited the biggest deficit [shouting] speaker order, order. You seem to be in a very hyper condition today. I would recommend you take some sort of soothing medicine or lie down for a while. Prime minister. Pm may we have acted to bring the deficit down. It is now down by. 75. At the same time, we have seen the economy grow and record levels of people in employment. Our policy on Public Sector pay has always recognized that we need to balance the need to be fair to publicsector workers, to protect to protect jobs in the Public Sector, and to be fair to those who pay for it. That is the balance we need to strike, and we continue to assess that balance. Mr. Corbyn we have had seven years of tax cuts for the richest and tax breaks for the biggest corporations. Speaker, last year, mr. Speaker, there was a 1700 nurses and midwives to the nhs, and in the first two months of this year alone, 3264 have left the profession altogether. Not a great birthday present for the nhs, is it . Last week, the chancellor said we all value our Public Services and the people who provide them to us. And went on to lord his own economic record by saying that we had a fundamentally robust economy. The Prime Minister found one billion pounds to keep her own job, why cant she find the same amount of money to keep nurses and teachers in their job, who after all serve all of us . The right honorable gentleman talks about the number of nurses. I think some of those figures he was talking about was the number of nurses who are registered in the United Kingdom. There are about 600,000 nurses registered, about half of them work in the nhs in england. , werary to what he says have 13,000 more nurses working [shouting] pm may i understand that it has been hard for people who have been working hard and making devices over the years have we sve been dealing with labour mismanagement of the economy. [shouting] pm may let me just let me remind the right honorable gentleman of what happens when you dont deal with the deficit. It is not a theoretical issue. Lets look at those countries that failed to deal with it. In greece, where they havent dealt with the deficit [shouting] see withhat did we failure to deal with the deficit . Cutsing on Health Service by 36 . That doesnt help nurses or patients. [shouting] mr. Corbyn i hope the Prime Minister is proud of her record of controlling publicsector pay to the extent that hardworking nurses have to access food banks in order to buy [shouting] and the frozen wages of teaching assistants, paramedics, and counsel workers. Speaker, it is not just in the Public Sector. Across the economy, wages are rising by 2. 1 while inflation is nearly 3 . 6 million workers earn less than a living wage. What does the Prime Minister think that tells us about seven years of a conservative government and what it has done to the Living Standards of those to geton him we all rely our Public Services, our Health Services delivered to us . I will tell the right honorable gentleman what has happened over the last seven years. Weve seen record numbers of people in employment. [shouting] pm may nearly 3 million more people in work. We have seen the introduction of the National Living wage, never done by labour, but by a conservative government. [shouting] seen 4 and we have Million People taken out of paying income tax altogether and a cut in income tax and a change in the personal allowance, which is the equivalent of 1000 pounds a year year to basic rate taxpayers, including nurses. Thats a record of Good Management of the economy. You only get it with a conservative. [shouting] speaker jeremy corbyn. Mr. Corbyn mr. Speaker, mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister simply doesnt get it. [shouting] mr. Corbyn there is, mr. Speaker speaker we have got plenty of time, i happy to run on for some considerable period of time. People who are making excessive noise should try to calm themselves and perhaps just give a moments thought to whether they would like to be viewed by their can chew and shrieking their heads off. It is very downmarket. Jeremy corbyn. Mr. Corbyn mr. Speaker, there is a low pay epidemic in this country, and it has a terrible effect on young people. Those in their 20s will learn 12,500 pounds a year less than the generation that went before them. The first generation to be worse off than the last. They are less likely to be able to buy their own home, more likely to be saddled with debt, more likely to be insecure, lowpaid work. Except for more misery, what does the Prime Minister and the government actually offer for the young people of this country . [shouting] mr. Corbyn speaker Prime Minister. Pm may to echo the words of my colleague, what we offer young people is more jobs colleagues what we offer young anday more homes opportunity to own their own homes. Let me just tell the right honorable gentleman what isnt fair. It isnt fair to refuse to take tough decisions and to loads debt on our children and grandchildren. [shouting] pm may it isnt fair to bankrupt our economy, because that leads to people losing their jobs and losing their homes. And it isnt fair to go out and tell people that they can have all the public spending they want without paying for it. Labours way leads to fewer jobs, higher prices, more taxes, and labours way means everyone pays the price of labor. Speaker jeremy corbyn. Mr. Corbyn mr. Speaker, when tories talk of tough choices, we know who suffers its the poorest and most vulnerable in our society. [shouting] young people, mr. Speaker, employed on zero hours contract, are more likely to have worse mental and physical health. Students who have worked hard at university graduating with 57,000 pounds worth of debt that will stay with them till they retire. Mr. Speaker, let me spell it out to the Prime Minister. This is the only country in which wages have not recovered since the Global Financial crash. More people are using food banks. 4 million children living in poverty. Record in work poverty, young people who see no prospect of owning their own home, and 6 million earning less than the living wage. The low pay epidemic is a threat to our economic stability. Can she take some tough choices and instead of offering platitudes, offer some real help and real support for those in work, young people, who deserve better and deserve to be given more optimism, rather than greater inequality . [shouting] speaker Prime Minister. Pm may we actually now see that the proportion of people in absolute poverty is at record lows. He asked for help for those who are lowpaid. I will tell him to help we have given i will reiterate the help we have given to people who are lowpaid. We introduce the mandatory National Living wage. The lowest earners passed its pay raise in 20 years. We have cut taxes, taken people out of paying income tax, that cut taxes for those who are on basic rate taxpayers. We are doing what is important for this country, which is ensuring there are jobs and an economy providing those jobs for people, because the best route out of poverty is being in work. And i know that the right honorable gentleman has taken to calling himself a government in waiting. [laughter] pm may well, we all know what that means waiting to put up taxes, waiting to destroy jobs, waiting to bankrupt our country. We will never let this happen. [shouting] speaker order. [shouting] speaker i understand the house is excited about hearing the right honorable member, nicky morgan. Mr. Speaker, thank you very much indeed. I know the Prime Minister and her ministers and many other members of the house are committed to Better Mental Health care for everyone. I am founder of a wellbeing project. I recently visited the eating Disorder Service in meister. As a result of this, one. 4 billion more is going to mental Health Services. How can the Prime Minister ensure that money is getting to frontline nhs services consistently . Speaker Prime Minister. Pm may first, let me commend my right honorable friend in the work she has done in setting up and i ambeing project, happy to join her in paying tribute to the work of the eating disorders service. As she says, they do incredibly important work, and we must do more to transform the mental Health Services we provide for young people, but also Mental Health generally. That is why we are putting more money into Mental Health and our spending on Mental Health will reach a record 11. 6 billion. Reached that last year. That funding, we need to make sure it gets through to frontline services. One example is the work we are doing to ensure that teachers and staff in schools are trained to better identify and better deal with Mental Health problems when they are present with children. I saw that when i visited Orchard School in bristol last week, ask let being done, really improving the quality of services for young people with Mental Health. Thank you, mr. Speaker. As we meet here today, the funeral is taking place at st. Peters church in dundee for the former leader of the Scottish National party and member of parliament of dundee east from 19741987. I am sure the house would like to join with me to commemorate the life and contributions to politics of the late, dearly missed friend and colleague gordon wilson. Here, here. Mr. Speaker, the uk government has not announced any measures to address rising inflation and slowing wage hasth, which the ifs described as dreadful. As workers face more than a decade of lost wage growth and endure the worst pay in seven years, can the Prime Minister think she is looking out for the just about managing . Pm may can i first of all say to the honorable gentleman, as i did last week, that im sure all members of this house is to offer our condolences to the friends, family, and colleagues of the la
