armed forces and i also pay tribute to everyone's election for tomorrow and in particular the candidate for wheatfield ed even though his own colleagues think he is so useless, they had about of confidence in him. ..

crash the economy, convicted of a sexual assault, not much for the prime minister. secretary of defense working on a spreadsheet tracking on popularity. thousands of families getting their holiday flights canceled, reviewing drivers license and now the biggest rail strike in 30 years. [cheering]

>> it's just starting. whoever is speaking or asking questions. his genuine about preventing strikes, how many meetings the secretary have had this week to stop it. this is the government that loves the railways and invests in the railways, 96 billion into the integrated railway. we have to modernize our railway. we are planning to make sure you have to, yesterday had 25.

and on the picket line -- i will even if you don't. you ought to show respect to the families. on the picket line mr. speaker while we back this. [chanting] >> i'm surprised. if i do need advice, 100,000, i would ask for these recommendations. and where you have it, the prime minister of this country and transport secretary, a single meeting held a conversation were

lifted up to stop these strikes. i did know monday having a meeting with himself for 120,000 pounds. there's money coming his way. he's nowhere to be seen. rather than blame everyone else, why doesn't he do his job, get on the table and get the trains running. [chanting] we are making sure we do everything we can as he knows it's up to the railway company to negotiate and that is their job and 16 billion pounds looking up at the railway in every household 600 pounds. we know why even now he hasn't got the gumption to call it out

going out to support them. the reason his authority is on the line is they take 10 million pounds. [chanting] left the scene they are receiving. he can't help himself. it's a huge problem facing the country and all he is interested in is blaming everyone else. the country is screaming at him, get on with your job. he blames everyone and anyone, these people are paying a price. this week his treasury minister said its responsibility for people to take the favor. at the same time his chief of staff is trying to change the

law to get them. so come on, only one of them could be right. his of his treasury minister on a pay cut or is it his chief of staff to says every banker needs it? the pay of rise to increase the living wage by 1000 pounds and increase universal credit so people get 1000 pounds more. it's everyone of the 8 million households. that's what we can do with top decisions we've taken. in the meantime, what we are also trying to do is transport, reforming our railway. he's hand standing with the strikers and for everybody, that

is the reality. his chief of staff says we are moving the bankers in his words, is reflective of our view approach. the city bankers pay district nurses, that is the new approach. this hasn't come from nowhere because according to financial times last year, the prime minister was directly lobbied. the working people, he's rolled over on bankers, fascinating. what we are actually doing is putting these decisions we've taken and put more money into the pockets of people up and down the country, 1200 pounds more, 8 million more household and the reason we can do that is

we took the tough decisions necessary to come out of the pandemic faster than any other european country. that's why we have unemployment at or near record lows. none of that would be possible if we didn't have this and we have more people now in payroll than before the pandemic began. that is what these people know and what continue to deliver. >> high tax, low wages, low gross. working people paying more taxes to the government and now they are told to take a pay cut. he's having meetings about increasing bankers bonuses but can't find time for a single meeting to end the strike quickly and responsibly. armed forces and this prime minister serving our country,

attacks pay cut. his government is more focused on increasing banks. >> order, order. your voices are quiet. mind carries. if you want it to carry, try this. mr. eager, it's armed forces week. under this prime minister, those serving our country are facing a real terms pay cut. why is his government more focused on creasing bankers pay them the pay of those running the country? [chanting] how satirical, should talk about our support for the armed forces and increase funding for our armed forces and with eight and

foreign secretary, we are helping people. it is true, mr. speaker, we are helping people across the country, we come in with the 8 million most vulnerable households. insurance going into the bank account and others but we are also doing is performing our systems, performing our energy market building a nuclear reactor every year, one in every ten years getting people off welfare. half a million people are forced -- the time people are waiting for working people by delivering reform out on the picket line literally holding hands with them. [chanting]

this is a government taking this country forward and they will take it back to the 1970s. [chanting] >> we have labor no growth and services. we have those is the industries services want to catch up on this loss during the pandemic. this takes us back to the 1970s. will we focus on the future and show we have apprenticeships focusing on engineering driver training to ensure we recover services cost, and industry focus on efficiency and technologies of the future. [chanting] >> knows exactly what you speak and just that reforming driver change to the sector while continuing to make sure we meet

the safety requirements. [chanting] >> thank you. [inaudible] we can find all our services. mr. speaker, one last thing, when i party in commemoration for the 75th anniversary next year to mark the value contributions, mr. speaker, this morning it was revealed uk inflation reported here highs, families are seeing incomes squeezed as prices rise. after 12 years of government, the 20th pushing millions of people. can i ask the prime minister the

government fears the united kingdom is doing so much worse than our european neighbors. >> we've got global inflationary to deal with it, that is the benefit to the whole of united kingdom including scotland as we see driving the pandemic that think it's a matter of fact texts are higher. [chanting] >> that is not true but the prime minister with these excuses, the fact is the economy is lagging behind. inflation is less than 6% there. as they have a strength of these

reports for the uk economy. it could not be clearer, the government disasters exit is driving it pushing inflation up and will further over the next decade. the prime minister is threatening the worst possible place. he's come to his senses and negotiate with the eu. is he going to be woefully push the uk? >> mr. speaker, nobody wants a trade war nor is there any need for one you're underestimating country. record investment in this country which is overtaking china and that is being felt

throughout the whole of united kingdom. [chanting] >> i support the work of this government and the united kingdom. this includes transports, the prime minister and his government to support improvements and this study to extend this on. >> thank you for that piece of lobbying, i could tell we are looking at the department of transport working to transport on the railway on the a1 decision made later this year. >> it's emerged for a backlog of 23000 applications in this policy, just two of the

applications to work for britain processed in april. yet the same time is not working forced by a quarter since december. this is an incredible trail of the afghan people who put their lives in the line to work for our country. i have casework, promised support since september. can i send those kisses to him? platelet resources into the scheme? we can finally do our best for the people of afghanistan. [chanting] >> thank you very much but i'm afraid she's underestimated for this country is already doing for the people. our armed forces say we should celebrate 15000 and am happy to look at the cases she wants to raise and we will do our best for them and their families but

the generous welcome we give to people from syria, afghanistan, ukraine, hong kong to record to be very proud of. >> thank you very much. my constituents also tell me want to seek more police officers tackling issues like antisocial behavior in the tackling issues like domestic abuse and burglary. thanks to the initiatives, sustained equipment, the hard work of our police officers staking off with almost 50% increase in arrests for domestic abuse over the last 12 months compared to the last 12 months. update the house on how many more officers are being recruited across the uk since he

became prime minister. join me in recognizing this. >> and i just say the longer the question, the less we get in. your friendship will dwindle if you carry on. >> i could say very briefly, 76 more police officers, 200 more there but what they are doing is capping neighborhood crime by 31%. >> a majority of members reject the government's political and businesses fear. this prime minister on occasions, his commitment so-called on all aspects -- it includes european convention human rights part of domestic law to stand up to that commitment the secretary is

about to publish a bill, you can have it both ways. >> i think the gentleman would just wait for the justice secretary of state which will follow shortly, you will find he follows what he said. >> have my campaign to level up and tackle the cost -- [chanting] to job fairs and the governments leveling out to benefit from a skill and incubator state sink apprenticeships on the old way neglected under labor. will my friends placed his support and level up in action. [chanting] >> yes, the best we've ever had. thank you very much and we are

going going to continue with our agenda. all the difficulties this country has faced and it will get young people across the country and it's a good job for generations to come, that is our ambition. >> tens of thousands of people were marching through london last weekend. workers on strike, teachers and doctors are on the verge of taking for selection. ministers are planning demanding wages -- can the prime minister tell me, when is he going to stop the meaningless ways -- [chanting] [inaudible] >> if she wants to support this country, i suggest she get off the picket line.

[chanting] [cheering] and has a worker leader in support of traveling public toward a reduction in this, this government is delivering. [cheering] >> thank you for much of britain's leveling up on revitalization of this industry and the jobs that go with it. many countries around the world such as germany and china have a competitive advantage, this form of also you will is the dirtiest. my concerns about the ethics of going back british industry exporting and magnifying overseas all in the name of that zero. >> we could all be proud of the way we reduce crt missions but it makes no sense to import this

for these purposes we have our own domestic resources. >> thank you, mr. speaker. the prime minister knows we proudly, the uk leading center of these vehicles and innovation. he knows because he visited -- [laughter] he knows because he visited the uk in the utilization center just last june. if this government wants to survive for the future, the prime minister needs to confirm his support. will he give a concrete guarantee for resources needed for the west midland factory project to go ahead so we can deliver much needed skilled jobs for 2025?

[chanting] >> i could tell we do actively support factories, we believe they could be a huge advantage from the uk and that's why we are working with the authorities to make sure we get a successful result there. [cheering] >> over 600 students rely on trains to get to their exams this week. what would you do to ensure these young people are not punished by trained strikers? [cheering] [inaudible] >> i could tell him none will be canceled as a result of the strike so far.

we expect schools and colleges to have arrangements in place to manage disruption if students arrive late, school should allow them to take the paper and exam to be determined on how late the student is. if the student misses the exam completely, the school could apply for the grades to be calculated from the other assessment that completed and that is helpful. >> thank you, mr. speaker. the prime minister had problems that arose the european cup final. both the french, liverpool fans in the stadium, comprehensively disproven. enjoy the french police event is condemned. [chanting]

>> i think him very much, i think the house was see how those initial account of what took place were debunked and proved to be incorrect in respect to those fans and it was right the french authorities and i think they issued a full apology of what took place. [chanting] >> taking back control is to apply to this, isn't it? >> mr. speaker, i think we should wait for our prime minister in just a moment but i can tell him when it comes to this policy we are pursuing, that has not been ruled unlawful by any uk courts nor by any international courts. we will continue with that.

>> the father-in-law of my constituents is a former marine court judge in afghanistan. he successfully prosecuted and put behind bars hundreds of terrorists associated with al qaeda and isis and the taliban. the application, there's no progress, he's living in hiding, his only option is a perilous journey to pakistan he would report back into the hands of the taliban so will the prime minister meet with me and former judges family to see how we can save the life of a man who i have no doubt has helped saved hundreds of british lives? >> i thank you for raising that particular case, extremely meritorious and i will make sure she gets a meeting, i asked that we do our best to expedite that case as fast as we can.

[cheering] >> thank you, mr. speaker. i'm proud to represent over 1000 residents. when with the government address the injustice determined by rpi and how is the government going to ensure they could benefit from this?
