excellent hospital. my local hospital has not been selected under the safe and sustainable review but i would say as prime minister and as a parent we have to recognize operations that have been carried out on children are incredibly complex and in this end this review was led by commissions and it is about trying to save lives to make sure we specialize the most difficult work in a number of hospitals around the country. it leads to difficult decisions but what really matters is more parents separate the agony of losing their children because we don't have high standards of care in hospitals that are chosen.

no answer on the tax re for pensioners. perhaps he has an answer on the biggesissue at all. we have got to do more to bring the economy back to health. what has he delivered since then? a double dip recession. the reality, the biggest failure facing this government is not a program on reform but a whole economic plan. under this government we got 800,000 more private sector jobs, inflation is down. unemployment is down. interest ratesre record low. we are a net exporter of cars for the first ti since 1976. we completed the biggest construction project in europe, started the next biggest project which is cross rail. this government set up the enterprise zones that it is seeing -- balanced in this country and we will never forget

what we were left by the party opposite. they were bailing out eurzone countries with taxpayers' money. they were paying 100,000 pounds with famy housing benets. they had uncontrolled welfare and uncontrolled immigration and government spending. never has so much been borrow. never has so much been wasted. never have so many people been let down and this country will never forgive them for what they did. >> mr. speaker, mr. speaker, mr. speaker, the writer he gets the less he convinces people. and -- [shouting] >>rder! order! members on both sides of the house now need to come down.

the prime minister's answers must and will be heard no matter how long it takes. >> to consider what he has done in the last year? oppose the immigration cap. oppose the welfare cat. oppose the housing benefit cap. every single measure to cut the deficit. we know what he is againstut when are we going to find out what he is for? >> this government had a great record on education. and university creating 25 -- will the prime minister please confirm a further round of applications and funding of universities.

important point. they said they were going to back a welfare cap but when it came to the crunch they opposed it. he is right. it shows who is on the side of those who work hard and want to do the best for their families and countries and community and think you would be better off on benefits. we have the workers and they have the shirkers. >> to be this funded, 600 soldiers facing redundancy. this is a regiment with a proud history of service to this country. will the prime minister not reconsider cuts to his battalion? >> we looked at this issue and our tie which many times we criticized to make sure we got this right. the decision to have a smaller regular army of 80,000 but

larger reserve force territorial army, the right balance. the government is putting a one billion pounds the reserves and member across will help the process of encouraging employers to allow the reserve to serve the country is the right decision. we made sure no existing regimental names will be lost so it is the right package for the future force of the country. >> on sunday observers hailed the first free elections in libya in 47 years. offering real hope for the future. does my right hon.riend on the progress made since their successful dictatorship and the message this sends to others. >> my hon. friends, in one

>> the head of the who later today, i can raise this issue. it is ban in the u and e.u. and other countries. we are opposed to its use anywhere and deplore its supply to developing countries. it does not provide funding to project that encourage developing countries to import asbestos from any country or anything. not aware of these funds have been used in that way at all. i would take action if that is the case but he makes a strong point about the indian situation. >> the european code of human rights is hearing the case of the lady who lost her job at british airways for wearing a crucifix as a mark of her christianity. this was that disgraceful piece of political correctne. i was surprised to see the government resisting her appeal. i cannot believe the government

is supporting this suppression of religious freedom in the workplace. what do we do about this? >> i wholeheartedly agree with my right hon. friend. i fully support the right of people to wear religious symbols that work. it is absolutely a vital religious freedom. what we will do is if it turns out that the law has the intention as is come out in this case then we will change the law and make it clear people n read -- where religious emblems at work. >> does the prime minister have the finding of the independent action of children which shows by 2015 the most vulnerable families of children in this country including those in employment will lose 3,000 pounds a year becausef this policy? at a time when millionaires are getting tax cuts of 40,000 pounds a year, we really are all in this together. >> in the report he quotes doesn't include the steps we

will he today reject calls from the liberal democrats announcing his hon. members tactically categorically rule out texting including the next general election. >> at the last election i made it clear promise about television licences and payments. we are keeping those promisess. >> mr. speaker, as melinda gates recently said women in developing countries raise healthy indicated chiren building prosperous communities. well my right hon. friend agree one way to support this aspiration is to help those who wish to do so? >> the hon. lady's absolutely right. later today i will be speaking at a seminar event with melinda gates and range of leaders from across africana and other parts of the developing world about exactly this issue. we should be doing more to allow

mothers access to birth control so they can -- all the evidence shows as countries develop family size does reduce and populations become more sustainable but we should help people plan the process. it is not about telling people what to do but allowing people the choice we take for grand. >> a row in britain respected by all trended sins in ireland -- my constituency for today many people of all faiths join on his gacy to work ostensibly to build safe across the divide. will the prime minister in northern ireland come to a country and to meet with these people land witness their unique

heritage for himself? >> i don't know if the hon. lady can guarantee that. we do have an active branch in northern ireland. intriguing and very kind invitation. i hope the olympics will bring the whole of the united kingdom to get there. the torch relay has helped to achieve that and i was privileged to see it in my own constituency. makes an intriguing invitation. if i can take it up by will. >> one of the success stories of this government is its commitment to community farming in particular but today nearly 2,000 -- drastic reductions and processes and supermarkets. will the prime minister join the fight to get a fair deal for their product? >> my hon. friend is right. he does an extremely good job for british farmers. this government is investing in

the countryside not least with the broadband program but we want to see a fair deal between farmers and supermarkets and we will be legislating for the adjudication he supports. i can also tell him we are announcing five million pounds extra in additional funds under the rural economy and that can help make our dairy industry which we should be proud of more competitive. >> what will the prime minister save some of the 150,000 adults the government itself estimates will be denied a second chance for education as relt of their plans to charge full speed to over 24-year-old study a level land equivalent process and access causes? >> there will be a full statement about the issue this week but it is iortant that we expand further education opportunities in our country and if we expand those opportunities we need to be clear how we will pay for them and that is what we repeatedly get from the party

opposite. complaints about this policy or that policy but no idea how they would pay for any of their policies. >> the government has achieved a great deal in the last two years. given the new issues emerging as we enter the third year of coalition does the prime minister agree that it will be this time for the political parties to review the coalition agreement for the futur >> i absolutely agreehat in the coalition you need to keep working out. the next set of things you want to achieve. cuts the corporation taking people out of income tax and expansion in terms of schools. a huge contribution to our health service performing better than any time in the last decade and i am committed to making shore all the next steps we want to take to make our country

better place. >> his grandson returning from afghanistan. 20,000 soldiers face losing their jobs. big firms like john lewis to guarantee the trend a job interview. will the prime minister get the public sector to do the same? >> i welcome what the hon. gentleman says. we should do everything we can to work with employers in the private sector or public sector to help find x service personnel jobs. people who contributed incredible things to our country and i am sure we can do more to help them find jobs. in the public sector, the education secretary has a program of troops to teach us to get people to serve our country to inspire future generations. it is an excellent scheme. >> on the prime minister's

watched the army reduced its smallest size since 1750 and half the size it was -- does he accept history is not kind to prime misters who are perceived to have left our country without a strong defense capability? >> absolutely no. with this constituency he speaks with great power about military issues. what i wou say to him is if you look at the overall balance of what we're doing, 80,0 regular soldiers, 30,000 p as fully funded which means the army is a similar size after these reforms to what was before. ..
