:00:17. > :00:21.Hello, welcome to Week in Parliament. Fierce, noisy,
:00:22. > :00:25.confrontational, Prime Minister's questions is the contest of the
:00:26. > :00:29.week. But how is Jeremy Corbyn doing?
:00:30. > :00:34.This is not about entertainment. The Labour leader has completed his
:00:35. > :00:37.first half term on the job, so what parliamentary watchers think of his
:00:38. > :00:41.new style at the dispatch box? He than their like the geography
:00:42. > :00:45.teacher that he looks like and say this is not funny, this is serious,
:00:46. > :00:50.and he will win products just for that.
:00:51. > :00:53.Does the Government have to consult MPs before taking military action?
:00:54. > :00:57.Remember this moment? It is clear to me that the British
:00:58. > :01:02.Parliament, reflecting the views of the British people, does not want to
:01:03. > :01:05.see British military action. I get that. It is a high profile
:01:06. > :01:10.gladiatorial contest. MPs cheer and grown, political
:01:11. > :01:13.pundits and the lies everywhere. Prime ministers questions comes in
:01:14. > :01:17.the middle of the parliamentary we can make the political weather.
:01:18. > :01:20.Since Jeremy Corbyn began as Labour leader he has adopted a new dispatch
:01:21. > :01:25.box style and we will be analysing that approach in a moment. He is
:01:26. > :01:29.asked about the NHS, housing and the steel industry, last week he used
:01:30. > :01:34.every single one of those questions to quiz David Cameron on tax
:01:35. > :01:44.credits. What would he do this we? Last week I asked the Prime Minister
:01:45. > :01:47.the same question six times. And he could not is now one week to think
:01:48. > :01:51.about it. I want to ask you one more time. Can he guarantee that next
:01:52. > :01:57.April, nobody is going to be worse off as a result of cuts to working
:01:58. > :02:00.tax credits? Let me be absolutely clear with the
:02:01. > :02:05.honourable gentleman. What I can guarantee next April is that there
:02:06. > :02:10.will be an 11,000 personal allowance so you can earn ?11,000 before you
:02:11. > :02:16.pay tax. What I can guarantee is there will be a national living wage
:02:17. > :02:20.at ?7 20 giving below was paid in our country a ?20 a week pay rise
:02:21. > :02:25.compared with the election next year. Now, he wants to spend the
:02:26. > :02:28.next five questions asking it all over again am sure he will find that
:02:29. > :02:31.it is very entertaining and interesting. How it fits with the
:02:32. > :02:42.new politics I'm not quite sure but over to you.
:02:43. > :02:46.This is not about entertainment, I have a question from Kieron, a
:02:47. > :02:50.veteran of the first Gulf War. His family is there to lose out and he
:02:51. > :02:54.writes, it is a worry to the family this fear and trepidation about
:02:55. > :02:57.whether we will be able to get by. And he asks, is this how the family
:02:58. > :03:03.this fear and trepidation about whether we will be able to get by.
:03:04. > :03:07.And he asks, is this abdomen treats next year and that means they will
:03:08. > :03:12.be able to earn more money before the even start paying taxes.
:03:13. > :03:17.Can I invite the Prime Minister to cast his mind to another area of
:03:18. > :03:21.public service that is causing acute concern at the Pleasance time? I
:03:22. > :03:26.notice when to dig himself out of a hole with the junior doctors offers
:03:27. > :03:31.this morning which we await the detail. But there is a question I
:03:32. > :03:36.want to put him and I quote Doctor Cliff man, the president of the
:03:37. > :03:41.Royal College of emergency medicine. Who said, this winter, we are worse
:03:42. > :03:49.than last winter and last winter was the worst winter we have ever had in
:03:50. > :03:57.the NHS. Can the Prime Minister guarantee there will be no winter
:03:58. > :04:01.crisis in the NHS this year? First of all, when it comes to the
:04:02. > :04:05.Royal College of emergency medicine, they actually support what
:04:06. > :04:20.we're saying about a seven-day NHS and the doctors contract.
:04:21. > :04:26.Mr Speaker,... Older.
:04:27. > :04:30.The Leader of the Opposition is entitled to ask questions about a
:04:31. > :04:35.barrage of noise. If this party cannot match its
:04:36. > :04:42.actions by its words then I put this to him. Will he just get rid? The
:04:43. > :04:47.NHS is a problem. It is no problem of deficits in many hospitals, it is
:04:48. > :04:53.in a problem of waiting lists, it is in a problem of the financial crisis
:04:54. > :04:58.that it been faced. Can he now address that issue and insure that
:04:59. > :05:03.everyone in this country can rely on the NHS, which is surely be jewel in
:05:04. > :05:09.all of our crowns? The number of doctors up by ten and a half
:05:10. > :05:12.thousand, the number of nurses up by 5800, fewer patients waiting more
:05:13. > :05:18.than 32 weeks to start treatment, then under Labour.
:05:19. > :05:22.A flavour of how the leader is dealing with PMQ 's. But is it
:05:23. > :05:26.working? I think he's getting into the swing
:05:27. > :05:31.of it now. The rhythm of PMQ 's. He's got this format, a brand-new
:05:32. > :05:35.format which is to treat it really seriously and stare down any
:05:36. > :05:38.heckling. I think the heckling that a lot of favours because it will
:05:39. > :05:42.stand up, he will make a question on behalf of the British public and
:05:43. > :05:46.then if he gets this all the jeers from the Conservatives it instantly
:05:47. > :05:49.online from our experience gets a very negative reaction for the
:05:50. > :05:57.Conservatives are just as a stand there like the geography teacher
:05:58. > :05:59.that he looks like, and say, look, this isn't really funny, this is
:06:00. > :06:01.really serious. And he will win plaudits just for
:06:02. > :06:04.that. Now, someone who watches it from the press gallery every week.
:06:05. > :06:09.BBC parliamentary correspondent Sean. I asked him how is Jeremy
:06:10. > :06:13.Corbyn doing? I don't think he has had a great parliamentary triumph.
:06:14. > :06:16.There's not been a moment of political theatre or a joke that
:06:17. > :06:20.everyone is going to remember for days and days but he has been
:06:21. > :06:24.confident and assured and he has got through it. And that has caused the
:06:25. > :06:28.most important thing for the Leader of the Opposition. And you get the
:06:29. > :06:30.these first few weeks without having a big embarrassment or a body
:06:31. > :06:34.thinking that you're not really quite up to the job.
:06:35. > :06:38.How is a strategy developed over this time?
:06:39. > :06:41.He has done things very different thing. Taking questions from members
:06:42. > :06:43.of the public and he is a strategy developed over this time? He has
:06:44. > :06:48.done things very different thing. Taking questions from members of the
:06:49. > :06:52.public and he has those real-life stories that he has chosen from the
:06:53. > :06:57.replies he has got. Whether that is sustainable in the long term, given
:06:58. > :07:01.the complicated things that leaders of the opposition are supposed to do
:07:02. > :07:04.with prime ministers questions, from cheering up their own side putting
:07:05. > :07:09.the promised on the spot, to getting a new script onto the television
:07:10. > :07:12.bulletins, well, that remains to be seen.
:07:13. > :07:18.You mentioned there are subjects and he is a very different strategy to
:07:19. > :07:23.his predecessor Ed Miliband. Can you see Jeremy Corbyn moving on? Well, I
:07:24. > :07:28.think that the problem Jeremy Corbyn has had is that clearly, when he has
:07:29. > :07:31.decided to go on the subject, he is then that locked in.
:07:32. > :07:35.And it has been noticeable that there haven't been very many
:07:36. > :07:39.follow-up questions. So it is not been a traditional sort of
:07:40. > :07:44.parliamentary cross-examination and think the thing that worry a lot of
:07:45. > :07:48.Labour MPs is just how relaxed David Cameron has been under the scrutiny.
:07:49. > :07:52.It is noticeable that David Cameron tends to leave the big briefing
:07:53. > :07:55.boulder that civil servants prepare for him either on the bench on the
:07:56. > :08:05.table. It doesn't use it doesn't use that money is being questioned by
:08:06. > :08:08.Jeremy Corbyn. And where is the speaker in all
:08:09. > :08:10.this? He is the one who chooses the length of prime ministers questions
:08:11. > :08:13.and it has been running on a bit as well.
:08:14. > :08:16.Yes, now, we know that the speaker does not like rowdy sessions prime
:08:17. > :08:21.ministers questions and doesn't have been about. And we should saying
:08:22. > :08:26.that when you are in the gallery, the press gallery in the House of
:08:27. > :08:30.Commons, it is a lot harder to hear what is being said then if you're
:08:31. > :08:35.watching it at home on TV. I've been in the House of Commons for all of
:08:36. > :08:40.Jeremy Corbyn's PMQ 's and at times it has an very noisy. But the noise
:08:41. > :08:43.aside, what he has done is that he has allowed Jeremy Corbyn to ask
:08:44. > :08:46.these long questions and he has not been jumping in and telling him to
:08:47. > :08:51.move on and that has prime ministers questions out quite a bit. As I say,
:08:52. > :08:54.David Cameron didn't seem too bothered at the beginning and we
:08:55. > :08:57.know that after the first couple of sessions you are saying to people
:08:58. > :09:00.you thought was what less stressful. This week, as he was leaving the
:09:01. > :09:03.House of Commons, we heard him in a brief chat with the speaker
:09:04. > :09:07.complaining that the sessions were getting longer and longer. They are
:09:08. > :09:11.beginning to get a bit closer to 40 minutes. They are spread we have an
:09:12. > :09:14.hour and this is a speaker who likes to get everybody was got the name
:09:15. > :09:19.down for a question in and so we does often allow a bit of extra time
:09:20. > :09:23.or injury time, but it is beginning to stretch. The song was getting the
:09:24. > :09:27.stage now where it is as long as the first half of a football match rugby
:09:28. > :09:39.game and then you have to say, well, what did the all Blacks do to
:09:40. > :09:42.Australia when they had 40 minutes. What has Jeremy Corbyn done to David
:09:43. > :09:44.Cameron in that amount of time. Not quite as physical but still. Thank
:09:45. > :09:47.you very much indeed. A key issue Jeremy Corbyn has to do
:09:48. > :09:51.with his Labour's position on the UK's Trident nuclear missile system.
:09:52. > :09:55.He has made it plain he is against a renewal of the system. Last weekend
:09:56. > :10:00.Scottish Labour Party delegates voted not to renew Trident. It means
:10:01. > :10:03.the Labour Party now holds different positions on the issue north and
:10:04. > :10:06.south of the border. On Tuesday that was a special debate on Trident and
:10:07. > :10:08.the Scottish parliament in Edinburgh.
:10:09. > :10:12.I should be clear that my position, of course, and that of the Scottish
:10:13. > :10:18.Government is that the possession of nuclear weapons cannot be justified
:10:19. > :10:21.at any cost whether at ?1 or at ?167 billion. And I suppose the question
:10:22. > :10:26.for those who still support by nuclear weapons at this cost is, at
:10:27. > :10:30.what price to be say it is too defensive?
:10:31. > :10:34.Healthy political parties on their positions, allow the debate, and are
:10:35. > :10:36.prepared to deflect their position. Scottish Labour on Sunday the
:10:37. > :10:40.arguments opposing Trident won the day because they've presented a
:10:41. > :10:45.strong case for Trident renewal being the wrong choice at the wrong
:10:46. > :10:49.time. But beyond that there was also a strong, fundamental argument
:10:50. > :10:54.against nuclear weapons. These are weapons which, if used, would cause
:10:55. > :10:58.unimaginable destruction and death. There can be no justification for
:10:59. > :11:01.deploying them. We all want a world without nuclear
:11:02. > :11:05.weapons. But the SNP has failed to win how you know lateral
:11:06. > :11:10.disarmament, much less just kicking Trident down the road to England,
:11:11. > :11:13.would achieve this. What evidence is there that if we get rid of our
:11:14. > :11:17.nuclear weapons that others will get rid of those?
:11:18. > :11:23.It will come as no surprise that I believe in the mud deliberate
:11:24. > :11:26.multilateral nuclear disarmament. My ambition is nothing short of global
:11:27. > :11:31.zero. And I believe that is an ambition that is shared by the
:11:32. > :11:34.majority of people in this chamber. Where we disagree, is in the
:11:35. > :11:41.mechanism that reactionary achieve that. I know that some opposed to
:11:42. > :11:43.Trident argued that we unilaterally rearming and cite the
:11:44. > :11:45.Non-Proliferation Treaty and I respect that. But it does not
:11:46. > :11:51.reflect what is actually happening outside the UK.
:11:52. > :11:57.At the end of the debate, MSPs the motion against the renewal of
:11:58. > :12:00.Trident. 96 votes to 17. Back at Westminster, a round-up of some of
:12:01. > :12:04.the other stories in the Commons and the Lords this week. Egypt's human
:12:05. > :12:08.rights record was raised about houses ahead of a visit to London by
:12:09. > :12:15.the president. Is the Minister aware that it has
:12:16. > :12:18.been responsible for the murder of unarmed protesters? He's used
:12:19. > :12:22.torture and rape on dissidents, imprison tens of thousands of
:12:23. > :12:27.political opponents including elected MPs, he has denied medical
:12:28. > :12:31.aid to people in prison, he has been responsible for a large number of
:12:32. > :12:34.disappearances. In fact, Egypt is becoming an incubator for Isil
:12:35. > :12:38.because of his own tyranny. Is this a man who should be invited to
:12:39. > :12:43.Downing Street? We going to confronting with his tyranny?
:12:44. > :12:48.The visit provides an opportunity for the Prime Minister to emphasise
:12:49. > :12:55.his desire to see more political progress in Egypt including on human
:12:56. > :12:59.rights and political freedom. Which are essential foundations for
:13:00. > :13:03.long-term stability. The Prime Minister invited the President to
:13:04. > :13:09.the UK cottages in Britain's best interests to help Egypt succeed as a
:13:10. > :13:14.stable, prosperous and democratic country. And to boost our strong
:13:15. > :13:18.commercial relationship. Is the thin blue line about to get
:13:19. > :13:22.thinner? Police resources in England and Wales are likely to be stretched
:13:23. > :13:25.by a new funding formula. Parliament hears from some unhappy police
:13:26. > :13:29.chiefs. You seem to be very upset about the
:13:30. > :13:35.proposals. I'm very upset. I am outraged.
:13:36. > :13:38.I think the number of people covering geographic areas will be
:13:39. > :13:42.reduced because there are simply less of us. Is this a defining
:13:43. > :13:45.moment for policing or are we just adds another moment where cash is
:13:46. > :13:49.tight? Is this a big moment?
:13:50. > :13:54.We and the collective leadership at the moment have not gone through
:13:55. > :13:57.moment were reading the scale of movement around our funding and
:13:58. > :14:03.redesigning our server so quickly. So on that point it is different.
:14:04. > :14:07.Just a moment in history? We have made quite clear in our response to
:14:08. > :14:11.this review that, if the Government grant cut at 40% of the top end, it
:14:12. > :14:16.would be unsustainable. I think that is a defining moment.
:14:17. > :14:21.Written is to send a new ship to help rescue refugees crossing the
:14:22. > :14:26.Mediterranean Sea. In a covert this year more than 218,000 refugees
:14:27. > :14:32.cross the Mediterranean. More than in the whole of 2014.
:14:33. > :14:36.The UK will as of Thursday be deploying a new ship to help provide
:14:37. > :14:41.search and rescue facilities in the Mediterranean. We have now had that
:14:42. > :14:43.request accepted ship will be part of that effort which I think is good
:14:44. > :14:46.news. Pornographic material has been
:14:47. > :14:49.around a long time but how The danger is that in tacitly or
:14:50. > :14:54.openly accepting the pervasive presence of adult pornography in
:14:55. > :14:57.people's lives, we are choosing to make the attitudes which lie behind
:14:58. > :15:00.and in pornography seem normal - objectification, exploitation and,
:15:01. > :15:06.very often, abuse. The showing of sexually explicit images via
:15:07. > :15:09.the Internet and mobile phones is another dimension of the potential
:15:10. > :15:13.harm, especially when they are shared with other people,
:15:14. > :15:16.and in adults, of course, this can produce so-called revenge porn,
:15:17. > :15:20.which I'm glad to say has now been And the government unveils proposals
:15:21. > :15:26.to help the police and security services tackle
:15:27. > :15:31.criminals and terrorists online. Mr Speaker, the legislation we are
:15:32. > :15:35.proposing today is unprecedented. It will provide unparalleled
:15:36. > :15:39.openness and transparency about our investigatory powers, it will
:15:40. > :15:42.provide the strongest safeguards and world-leading oversight
:15:43. > :15:46.arrangements, and it will give the men and women of our security
:15:47. > :15:48.and intelligence agencies and our law enforcement agencies,
:15:49. > :15:52.who do so much to keep us safe and secure, the powers they need to
:15:53. > :15:56.protect our country. The issues with which this proposed
:15:57. > :16:00.legislation seeks to tackle go way We will examine carefully
:16:01. > :16:04.the detail of the draft Bill and seek to improve the safeguards
:16:05. > :16:08.to build trust but having listened carefully to what the Home Secretary
:16:09. > :16:11.had to say today, I believe she has responded to legitimate concerns
:16:12. > :16:14.and broadly got that difficult Does the government have to consult
:16:15. > :16:20.Parliament Downing Street this week denied
:16:21. > :16:25.reports that David Cameron had abandoned plans for a Commons vote
:16:26. > :16:28.on British air strikes against The move came as MPs on the
:16:29. > :16:35.Foreign Affairs Committee urged him to focus instead on efforts to end
:16:36. > :16:39.the civil war in Syria. Chris Davies has been looking
:16:40. > :16:43.at the history of this issue. August 2013 and the government loses
:16:44. > :16:47.a vote is asking Parliament for permission to bomb Bashar
:16:48. > :16:58.al-Assad's forces in Syria. The ayes to the right, 272,
:16:59. > :17:01.the noes to the left, 285. It is clear to me that the British
:17:02. > :17:04.Parliament, reflecting the views of the British people, does not want
:17:05. > :17:07.to see British military action. I get that and the government
:17:08. > :17:12.will act accordingly. The vote was a serious blow to
:17:13. > :17:15.Prime Minister David Cameron. The strange thing is, he didn't need
:17:16. > :17:19.to hold it to commit the British As Prime Minister, Mr Cameron had
:17:20. > :17:24.the right to take the country to Royal prerogative powers are powers
:17:25. > :17:36.originally belonging to the monarch but are now virtually
:17:37. > :17:39.all exercised by ministers. They allow ministers to do things
:17:40. > :17:43.without the consent of Parliament. So, although the Prime Minister has
:17:44. > :17:48.the power to take the country to war, it's slowly becoming convention
:17:49. > :17:51.to ask Parliament for its views This convention can be traced back
:17:52. > :17:58.to 2002 when the Labour government, led by Tony Blair,
:17:59. > :18:01.recalled Parliament to discuss It concludes that Iraq has chemical
:18:02. > :18:08.and biological weapons, that Saddam has continued to produce them, that
:18:09. > :18:14.he has existing and active military plans for the use of chemical and
:18:15. > :18:17.biological weapons, which could be activated within 45 minutes,
:18:18. > :18:21.including against his own Shia Although the government did suggest
:18:22. > :18:26.formalising the convention back in 2011, so far, no proposals have
:18:27. > :18:31.been brought forward. This means it's still possible for a
:18:32. > :18:34.Prime Minister to take the country to war without a vote in Parliament,
:18:35. > :18:38.using the royal prerogative. You'd imagine this would happen in
:18:39. > :18:41.the case of an immediate emergency. If there is a planned offensive,
:18:42. > :18:44.we are more likely to see a vote. That's why, when circumstances
:18:45. > :18:48.changed, David Cameron went back to the Commons for another vote,
:18:49. > :18:53.this time on bombing Isis. Now, one of the short end-of-day
:18:54. > :18:59.debates this week in the Commons The Conservative MP Will Quince
:19:00. > :19:04.talked about the subject of bereavement care in maternity units
:19:05. > :19:08.- the services available to parents who lose their baby either in
:19:09. > :19:13.childbirth or very early in life. In May 2014, my wife had her 20-week
:19:14. > :19:21.pregnancy scan where Further tests led to a diagnosis
:19:22. > :19:27.of Edwards syndrome and he survived full-term to 41 weeks but sadly, in
:19:28. > :19:33.October last year, was stillborn. Mr Speaker, as hard as it is to tell
:19:34. > :19:37.you my story, it sets the scene for this debate and hopefully gives
:19:38. > :19:39.the House a small insight into the experience of the parents
