the tories tax cuts are the benefit of the rich.labour administration. but the point is, actually, if you look at the consequences of the past ten years of glory —— tory government by their own standards, ticket prices up by 42% on trains while they have held down the fuel tax that benefits people who drive big cars. look at what happened with crossrail being built for london rather than infrastructure in the north. they could have started big railway infrastructure projects in the north ten years ago and they've chosen not to. the ones they did do, in manchester, the project went really badly and we had rail delays for years and years. would you approve a more borrowing for day—to—day spending? we will end up with more day—to—day spending because of coronavirus and the failure of the tory government. you talk about councils and what they are having to deal with. those cuts have been totally ineffective because they have because so many problems. what i would say is we need a proper plan that responds to the crisis we are in now, th

we should be committing to do that, i want to see the tories do that in the budget tomorrow.ly honest by the time we got to the ma nifesto honest by the time we got to the manifesto most of the electorate had stopped listening. but there was concern particularly amongst people in voters on low incomes, that this is their money and they don‘t have a lot of it so when they saw a huge range of spending commitments, especially those where we didn‘t know how we would pay for them, people were really worried that this would hit their own family incomes are hard and i do think we‘ve got to ta ke are hard and i do think we‘ve got to take that seriously. i wonder if you agree that it feels like in this contest, you cannot win the labour leadership contest if you criticise jeremy corbyn. but perhaps you can‘t wina jeremy corbyn. but perhaps you can‘t win a subsequent general election u nless win a subsequent general election unless you criticisejeremy corbyn? ijust think we unless you criticisejeremy corbyn? i just think we got to be honest, that‘s what i‘ve done since the moment i sai

the tory architect of universal credit bedroom taxes to child policies ian duncan smith here says it is a disincentive to work it is an affordable and come to think of it if as you are saying these policies are going to exacerbate the problems of the precariat we have the army now to infill nor in order i listened to his statements and i think that crisis if there's anything that is stronger as a disincentive to work it is this scheme that they just introduced you will only get it if your per load and if you are green not to do any work that's a crazy is just assessed up with a basic income you overcome. the poverty trap that in duncan smith has admitted exists so to me a basic thing that is actually an incentive to work and the evidence they show in the book shows very clearly from around the world that when people have basic security they were law not less and they're more productive when they work not less so in a plant it's complete middle class pockets on his part that he thinks that people would stop work he receives huge subsidies from the government and sell to his family i d

mps we re being made against her and tory mps were watching the prime minister nervously to see if heseek to distance himself from the home secretary. but not a bit of it, this lunchtime we had borisjohnson metaphorically speaking put his arm around priti patel and pretty much say to her you are going nowhere. as if to underline the point, where was priti patel in the chamber, she was right on the front bench right next to borisjohnson right on the front bench right next to boris johnson underlining right on the front bench right next to borisjohnson underlining the closeness of prime ministerial support. just take a listen. the home secretary is doing an outstanding job delivering change, putting police out on the streets, cutting crime and delivering a new immigration system and i'm sticking by her. but it is very far from over. first probably we will have an employment tribunal at which all these bullying allegations may spill out into the public domain and the prime minister now risks the charge of pre—empting the separate enquiry by the cabinet secretary and in effect declaring p

a tory praised parliament's "keep calm and carry on" attitude.nxiety that the country, the whole country is feeling about the coronavirus, can hejoin with me in recording our thanks to everyone who works in this place, and will keep the show on the road, because doesn't that set the best possible example to the rest of the country that we should keep things going and remain calm, in order to make sure that we carry on making rational decisions in this crisis. jacob rees—mogg agreed, but not everyone was quite so relaxed about the risk at westminster. an snp mp suggested the commons should look at alternatives to the traditional voting system where mps troop through the division lobbies a process that can take up to 15 minutes. we could use the deferred decision procedure, instead of having to stand in lobbies for up to 20 minutes in an extremely confined space with 600 other people. that could be done from the budget debate onwards, for as long as this emergency lasts. we could also look at ways in which people are able to vote without having to

tories aboutjobs. -- the tourism industry. 15 million jobs worldwide could go.cost the airline industry £19 billion before it is all over and the reason is we are seeing more and more travel restrictions so people are not going on holiday and when they get there they are not using their hotels, not going on cruises, not going to restaurants, so businesses are going to suffer because if the customer is not the air it doesn't matter how good your product is, if people don't use it you are not making money. thank you. opposition parties have been meeting with government officials to express their concerns over the uk's response to the crisis. iain watson is at westminster what are they saying? labour and the snp, the lib dems and plaid cymru met the chief medical officer this morning. we do not want to play party politics with such an important issue but behind closed doors i am told they raise concerns forcibly with government officials as to the approach they are taking, in particular they are questioning why we are so out of step with some other countries in tha

structure devastated by the tory austerity that followed the 2008 western economic crash or is britain's new liberal epidemic of inequality killing off the poorest too quickly we speak to economist guy standing who was said to advise the jeremy corbyn government if we did one that deserves general election and we ask the author of why nations fail british economist james robinson if the u.k. chancellor should today be looking to communist china for tips on reviving britain's economy plus we ask a former u.k. home office minister why a pandemic hasn't yet been declared in britain and who really stands to gain from vaccine research funded by taxpayers money all the support coming up in today's going underground 1st today marks britain's 1st budget since leaving the world's largest trading bloc the e.u. the headlines are awash with government funding to deal with the u.k.'s recent flooding and soaring rates of coronavirus but what about the poorest in our society 14000000 of whom live in poverty including 4000000 children it's a metric u.k. shadow chancellor john mcdonald will measure this

that vote seeing 38 tory mps vote against the government's plans, including former cabinet ministers.mith. now, the head of the civil service has told mps that the resignation of the home office's most senior official over bullying allegations against the home secretary was very regrettable. philip rutnam quit as the department's permanent secretary last month, accusing priti patel of bullying. she has denied the allegations, giving evidence to the the constitutional affairs committee she said that she could not discuss the specifics of the case but ministers should behave professionally and courteously with their officials. philip rutnam, 33 years in the civil service has accused priti patel of swearing, vilifying people, making unreasonable and repeated demands. where he could he go without and ultimately did he have to walk away from that himself? you understand i have to be very careful about commenting on the individual case. he has resigned and he has said that he is planning to bring legal action against the government so i have to be really circumspect in anything i say. if a
