It is the best thing to play for strength. I will look at that as an option and im keen to make sure tourism and ireland, make sure it dovetails into the offering in Northern Ireland so we can encourage people in north ireland and capitalize on the next series game of thrones due out very soon. Questions to the Prime Minister. [shouting] question number one, mr. Speaker. Thank you, 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. Thank you, mr. Speaker. On her 21st birthday in 1940 7a young woman declared that her whole life whether long or short would be dedicated to the service of our nation. Here, here. Nobody could possibly argue that her majesty Queen Elizabeth ii has been anything other than fulfill her promise to the nation with dignity and grace. Here, here. People across the country will be marking the queens birthday, 90th birthday tomorrow in many different ways, many honorable and right honorable members will join for the Queen Initiative tight enough our neighborhoods. Some will be raising a small glass and many will be having a proper so when the Prime Minister next has an audience with the queen will he pass on my best wishes . [laughter] and those, and those of the whole house . Here, here. Long may she reign. [cheers and applause] im very glad, very glad my honorable friend has raised this. I will certainly pass on his best wishes and best wishes from right across yorkshire. Tomorrow is an important landmark not only for her majesty, the queen but also for our country and for the commonwealth as a whole. She has served our nation with such dignity, with such a billy for so many years, 64 years on the throne. And i think its right we will have the opportunity in the house tomorrow to pay tribute to what shes done and i know the whole country and the whole house will want to join me in saying long may she reign over. [shouting] turn one. Thank you, mr. Speaker. Am also looking for to wishing her a happy birthday tomorrow. But until then, mr. Speaker, until then, mr. Speaker, could the Prime Minister explain why he is intent on forcing putin outstanding schools to become academies against the wishes of teachers, parents, School Governors and local council . The short answer is because we want schools to be run by head teachers and teachers, and not by bureaucrats. That is why we support the policy. We also supported because of the clear evidence of academies. If you look at converted academies, 88 of them are either good or outstanding. You look at schools started but academies, they see 10 improvement on average over the first two years. The results are better. Education is improving. I say lets complete the work. Mr. Speaker, he hasnt managed to convince the former chair of the education select committee, his friend who said and i quote, Current Evidence does not prove that academies rates standards overall or for disadvantaged children. Why is the Prime Minister ignoring evidence of select Committee Chairs and so many others on this issue speak with look, the results speak for themselves. There are 1. 4 million more pupils in good or outstanding schools, but let me take him to a school near where he lives. Lets try that down Hills Primary School not far from his constituency. It was in special measures, taken over by an academy and two years later it was a good school. So the question i would put to the leader of the opposition and, indeed, to the many of other increased opposite, why do you want to stand on a picket line under a banner saying save our Failing School . Mr. Speaker, as he well knows, every teacher, every. No, every pupil wants the best they can get for the school and they want a good Education System. What many are concerned about is his top down we organization. If you will not listen to the former chair of the education select committee, would you listen to his friend the member for culture who said this . If a school is well governed, wellrun and performing well, it should be left alone and allowed to do its job. Can the Prime Minister explained a good School Leaders should focus their time and resources not on educating children but an arbiter changes imposed from above . Let me make two points on specific issue he raises. I would say to outstanding or to good schools, they have nothing to fear from becoming academies but a huge amount to gain. The truth is even about outstanding or good schools we want them to be even better. And the truth is, academies and greater it depended, leading head teachers run their schools has been due to ineffective. This is something started by the labour government, given rocket boosters under this government. We have seen massive improvements in our schools because of academies and we say lets get on with it, finish the job and give all our children a great opportunity. Mr. Speaker, im sure the Prime Minister is aware of the views the people in oxfordshire on this issue. Counselor tilly, the conservative cabinet member for education in his own county said, im fed up with the cops from above, saying he would do this and you wont do that. He claims to be an advocate of devolution. So is he not concerned about criticisms from his friend the member who says, little accountability or parental involvement. Can the Prime Minister understand the anger so many people feel just being imposed on them, a system they dont want or what are often already very good if the outstanding schools . Its always good to get election on the cops i will pass over that. I will pass over that. The truth is, creating academies is to devolution because youre putting the power in the hands of head teachers and the teachers. And, of course, of course you will find people in local government who want to keep things exactly as they are. But the truth is one of the reasons i so strong support academies is that when they fail they are intervened on so much faster. Local Authority Schools are often left to fail year after year after year. I think one year of a Failing School is one year too many. So lets encourage academies. Lets build a great Education System and lets have opportunity for all our children. Mr. Speaker, last week i spent a very interesting afternoon at a local school in my constituency. I visited duncan primary school, and it is a good to outstanding school, and had a long discussion with the head teacher, parents. Governors and pupils. The pupils were very interesting interesting. Asked me to say this to the Prime Minister. Why are you doing this . They love their school, alike fiscal the weighted. They dont want any top down we organization. And he hasnt even convinced the former education secretary who says i dont like know why the government is doing this. What is his answer to the very smart pupils speak with my answer is very much the answer that he gave because i was following his tour of the school. This is what the right honorable gentleman sent. He said i want to see a family of schools and want to see them properly funded. With our reform to National Funding formula there will be fair funding right across the country. [shouting] and with our plans for academies there will be genuine families of schools, families that choose to group together. And heres the point about outstanding schools. Not only will they be able to get better but in groups of academies they will be able to help other schools to improve. Sawicki and thats why we need this reform to make outstanding schools, good schools even better and help raise the aspiration of all. Thats what its all about. Mr. Speaker, we appear to get into some kind of fantasy land. [laughter] the institute for fiscal studies, the institute for fiscal studies say that School Spending is expected to fall by at least 7 in real terms in the next four years. The biggest cut since the 1970s. So what on earth is the Prime Minister proposing to spend 1. 3 billion pounds on a top down we organization that wasnt in his manifesto . Parents dont want it, governors dont want and teachers dont want to. Even his own mps and counselors dont want to. Cant he just think again and support schools and education, not force it on them . Let me answer his question very directly about spending because we have protected spending or pupil all the way through the last parliament and all the way through this parliament. We are spending 7 billion pounds on more School Places to make up for the woeful lack of action under the last labour government. That is the truth on spending. Now, he talks about fantasyland. I think its the Labour Party Said this week entered fantasyland when they are now abandoning tridents in scotland, selected some visits on platforms with extremists in london, and they have now decided when i read, when i read theyre going to ban mcdonalds from the party conference, i thought it was the first sensible decision they made. It turns out it wasnt the job destroyer they want to keep away from the conference. It was one of britains biggest employers. They wonder labour mps are in despair. Frankly, im loving it. [shouting] thank you, mr. Speaker. Can ask my right honorable friend whether he agrees with the treasury forecast issued on monday which warned that if we stay in the European Union there will be 3 million more migrants by the year 2030 . Last year my right honorable friend and i were elected on a clear manifesto to reduce net migration to the tens of thousands. How are we going to be able to deliver on that pledge unless we leave the European Union . The point about the treasury forecast as it takes the office of national to cystic figures and the orp figures and it doesnt alter them but it is time to make them very clear and pure argument backed by the government of the bank of england yesterday that much of what would happen if britain leads the eu. Theres a demand out there for independent and clear statistics and thats exactly the treasury provided. Thank you very much, mr. Speaker. Its believed the recent murder of glasgow shopkeeper was religiously motivated, and this week christian, jewish, chic and other leaders launched a campaign titled united against extremism. With the Prime Minister join me and colleagues of all parties in supporting the ends of his campaign to support and sponsor understanding and stand up to extremism . I will certainly join the right honorable gentleman. Is was a shocking murder and i think what it demonstrates begin what is question hints at that we need to going to stand up against violence and actual upholding violence like this but we also need to stand up against the extremist mindset that sometimes tries to justify events like this or other such outrages. Total agreement with the Prime Minister, number is just the most recent example of sectarian extremism. This includes reports of them being refused employment, businesses being boycotted, schoolchildren being bullied and people like the shopkeeper who worked to bring shape does the Prime Minister agree this is totally unacceptable in a country where we believe in free speech and religious tolerance . And the time has come for all community and all faith leaders of all religions to stand up against extremism . I certainly a great faith leaders can play a huge role in standing up against extremism and i welcome what they do but again i think we need to be very clear about what we are facing. The attack was inspired by other muslims. Demonstrates once again that what we face is not some clash of civilizations between islam and christianity or islam and buddhism. What we are seeing is a small minority within one of the grid religions of our world, islam, believing that theres only one way, a violent extremist with a professing their faith. This is a battle within islam and we have to be on the side of the monarch maggiore and make sure that we never got to really understand what is happening at otherwise will take the wrong path. Thank you, mr. Speaker. The future provided by hospitals are being thrown into doubt by new about to launch a consultation that gets it close with a replacement. Thats the Prime Minister shim attention and what he agreed Vital Services justify their action . I am aware of the draft proposals concerning hospital under said no decision has yet been made. The plants are due to be considered by the Clinical Commission groups and remember these bodies are now by and large clinical let and i think that is important the decisions about what services are required will be taken by that group but its our significant changes they just love to meet for tea test, shipboard, strengthen public engagement, clarity on the Clinical Evidence base of support for patient choice. All those things have to be satisfied. Mr. Speaker, the air in our cities is both toxic and illegal with the diesel fumes contributing to 800 deaths a week. Thats 40,000 killings a year. So what is the Prime Minister, instead of removing the most heavily polluting diesel vehicles from our streets, lobbying the eu in brussels with the mayor of london to weaken plans to improve our air quality and save lives . We are investing in better air quality since 2011 with committed over 2 billion pounds to operators upgrade afflicted with an air quality improved between 20102014 in terms of emissions coming down by 17 . When it comes to the standards that we ought to meet what are working with our car industry and i want a strong car industry in britain. Im proud of it has recovered so strong but in the northeast of england we make more cars than the whole of italy, a major investor and builder of diesel engines but we will make sure that they have the resources they need to meet the high standards that are set out. It is a truth acknowledgment that fish and chips case best on the pages and thats why 4 Million People visit those beaches every year. Does the Prime Minister agree with me that we should work with the environment agency, the local enterprise partnership, local counsel, build on the work of this government that has brought jobs and growth, extend the tours season and build a billion coastal economy wide the end of this decade speak with my honorable friend is right. That is what i announced a fivepoint plan for tourism last year to encourage people to visit uk resorts both from overseas and british people as well. Thats exactly whats happening. Isnt it interesting in the weekly were supporting fish and chips on the side of the house, they are banning mcdonalds . Turn one. Mr. Speaker, or than 2000 people have signed a petition in my constituency calling on the government not to cut the funding of community pharmacist. Given the major reports last week regarding actions do not face investigation by the regulators, isnt it time the Prime Minister supported independent pharmacists which are vital life and help to keep our high streets allied . We are supporting rural pharmacists. Theres a specific scheme to help but if we look at the last five years there was a massive increase in pharmacy spending, and as we make sure as much as the nhs resources go to the front lines, the doctors and nurses and operations and the a e we want to see carried out, weve got to make sure were getting value for money in pharmacy while protecting rural pharmacies that she speaks abo about. Given his earlier comments, does my right honorable friend agreed that it is the duty of all members of this house to condemn without caveat all extremism, and never, never to share a platform with any extremist . I think my honorable friend is absolutely right. If were going to condemn not just violent extremism but also the extremism that seeks to justify violence in any way, it is very important that we do not back these people and we do not appear on platforms with an. I do have to say i am concerned about labours candidate for mayor of london who has appeared and again and again and again [shouting] well, the leader of the labour party, the leader of the labour party is saying [shouting] let me tell him, right. Solomon [shouting] the honorable member has appeared on a platform with him nine times. This man supports [shouting] he even shared a platform mr. Speaker, i think they are shouting down this point because they dont want to hear the truth. [shouting] anyone can make a mistake about who they to appear on platform with. We are not always responsible for what our political opponents say, but if you do it time after time after time, it is right to question your judgment. [shouting] mr. Speaker, news overnight of a management [inaudible] will the Prime Minister become the head of sales and meet with the 20 customers who make up around 50 of this years new orders . We will certainly do everything we can to help this company and also develop with its customers during this difficult time. Right now we are talking with the board to make sure all the questions they need answered are answered by us because we want to have a proper sales process with proper buyers can afford and we want to be very clear that government is prepared to support that process and support the outcome. And thats exactly what we will do. Thank you, mr. Speaker. The eu security is only as strong as its weakest border. Does the Prime Minister shim a concern not only of chancellor merkels apparently freedom of speech, crucially his decision to liberalize these turkish these is, such porous borders and Identity Fraud and concerned currently chancellor
