Hello and welcome to the Week In Parliament. | :00:12. | :00:19. | |
Westminster voices its sympathy and unity with France | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
But what should Britain's response be to the new terror threat? | :00:22. | :00:31. | |
It's vital not to be drawn into responses that feed a cycle of | :00:32. | :00:41. | |
violence and hatred. I will set out a comprehensive strategy for dealing | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
with Isil. The Stormont Assembly | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
returns to normal working. It has been a long ten weeks, a | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
pretty gruelling process. Or are 16-year-olds mature enough | :00:51. | :00:59. | |
to be given the right to vote? Whether it is about the transport | :01:00. | :01:12. | |
links, these are all political issues that are affecting 16 and | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
17-year-olds are everybody has an interest in politics. | :01:17. | :01:17. | |
"The kaleidoscope has been shaken, the pieces are in flux". | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
Tony Blair's reaction to the 9/11 terror attacks 14 years ago hasn't | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
seemed entirely out of place in the last seven days at Westminster. | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
The political temperature slowly changed, as MPs and peers thought | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
through what Britain's response should be to the carnage of last | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
Friday night when 129 innocent Parisians lost their lives at | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
President Hollande announced France was "at war" with the terror group, | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
Questions were asked by the politicians about intelligence, | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
about the security of borders, about resources for the police, about | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
The Commons was in solemn mood on Monday. | :01:55. | :02:06. | |
The terrorists seek to divide us and to destroy our way of life but | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
theirs is an empty, perverted and murderous ideology. They represent | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
no one, and they will fail. France Greaves but she does not grieve | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
alone. Through is this strategic defence review, we will make new | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
funding available to the security agencies to provide for 1900 new | :02:29. | :02:39. | |
officers. To better respond to the threat posed by international | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
terrorism. The name of Isil is to divide our communities, to divide us | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
politically, and to divide us from our European partners with whom we | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
share common values. The message goes out today that we will not let | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
them prevail. Let us state clearly today that they won't succeed, that | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
we will stand as one in our communities, in our country and | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
united with our European partners. Events in Paris have expose the | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
truth about Isis and their fellow jihadists, and that truth is they | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
hate us not because of what we do but because of what we are. They | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
hate our history, our identity and our values. Does Mike Right | :03:24. | :03:26. | |
Honourable friend agree that those who say if we leave them alone they | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
will leave us alone are peddling a Aintree 's and deadly deception? I | :03:31. | :03:37. | |
think my friend Mike makes a very important point. I'm sure the | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
Secretary of State will join me in stressing that Europe's response to | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
the actions of a small group of fanatical motorist terrorist 's must | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
not be to pull up the drawbridge of thousands of Syrian refugees who are | :03:54. | :03:56. | |
fleeing terror summit of that which was inflicted on Paris on Friday. I | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
also applaud the fact the Home Secretary seems determined not to | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
make an ill considered response to these atrocities and is approaching | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
matters with her good fashion. On behalf of all of those that love | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
France in this place, I expressed our solidarity with our French | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
colleagues today. We stand shoulder to shoulder. May I speak directly to | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
them and say... SPEAKS IN FRENCH. | :04:28. | :04:39. | |
I think I can only respond to my honourable friend by saying. Mac | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
SPEAKS By Tuesday, the focus was shifting, | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
and the possibility of RAF air strikes in Syria was | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
being openly discussed. The UK has been taking part | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
in air strikes against Isis only But David Cameron told MPs the Paris | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
attacks had strengthened the case for tackling Isis, sometimes called | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
Isil, beyond the Syria-Iraq border. and it is in Syria that Isil has its | :04:59. | :05:14. | |
headquarters and it is from there that some of the main threat against | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
this country are planned and orchestrated. It is the head of the | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
snake. I will set out our comprehensive strategy for dealing | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
with Isil, our vision for a more stable and peaceful Middle East. | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
This strategy should include taking the action in Syria I've spoken | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
about and I hope that in setting out the arguments in this way, I can | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
build support right across this house for the action that I believe | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
is necessary to take. In next week was Mac strategic defence and | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
Security review, we will make an additional investment in our | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
world-class intelligence agencies which will include over 1900 | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
additional staff, and more money to increase our network of | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
counterterrorism experts. While we welcome the sensible measures to | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
make more funding available for security services, to gather | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
intelligence and expose and prevent plots, can he confirmed these will | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
be balanced with the needs to protect our Civil Liberties, which | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
was so hard won in this country and so stoutly defended by many of us? | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
It is vital at such time of tragedy and outrage not to be drawn into | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
responses which beta cycle of violence and hatred. President Obama | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
has said that Isis grew out of our invasion of Iraq and it is one of | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
its unintended consequences. Jeremy Corbyn initially said | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
he didn't support a shoot to The Prime Minister is right that the | :06:37. | :06:48. | |
police and security services need our full support at this time. But | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
shouldn't it be immediately obvious to everyone that the police need the | :06:54. | :07:01. | |
full and necessary powers, including the proportionate use of lethal | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
force, if needs be, to keep our communities safe? As a foreign | :07:06. | :07:11. | |
affairs committee has concluded, there doesn't seem to be a strong | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
case for so extending air strikes, that it will achieve little or | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
nothing, and make us simply feel good and that we are doing something | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
as a result of the atrocities. I don't agree with that view. | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
So, to Wednesday, and Prime Minister's Questions. | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
Policing plays a vital role in community cakey shin. Gathering | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
evidence on those that might be a risk to all of us. This is surely | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
undermined if we cut the number of police officers by 5,000. Does the | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
prime ministers agree with Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe who said," I | :07:46. | :07:50. | |
genuinely worry about the safety of London if the cuts go through on | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
this scale." We have also, because we have cut bureaucracy, put the | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
equivalent of an extra 2000 police on the streets. I'll tell the Leader | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
of the Opposition something. As well as wanting resources, the police | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
want the appropriate powers. Hasn't it come to something when the leader | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
of her Majesty's opposition thinks the police, when confronted by a | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
Kalashnikov waving terrorist, isn't sure what the reaction should be. | :08:18. | :08:19. | |
The SNP's Westminster leader said during the recent Syrian peace talks | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
an agreement was made to involve the United Nations. | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
Will the Prime Minister confirmed that he will support the UN Security | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
Council resolution on this before seeking to intervene militarily in | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
Syria? What matters most of all is that any action we would take would | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
both be legal and help protect our country and our people right here. | :08:45. | :08:46. | |
What is the right age at which people should be allowed to vote? | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
45 years ago, the UK voting age went down from 21 to 18, | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
But the Lib Dems and Labour believe that society has | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
changed, and that the voting age should fall by a couple of years. | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
Indeed, 16 and 17-year-olds were allowed to vote in last year's | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
In a moment, we'll talk to two people with | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
On Tuesday night the Commons decided to keep the voting age at 18 | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
But on Wednesday the Lords did the opposite, backing the idea | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
of 16 and 17-year-olds voting in the referendum on Britain's | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
If we change the voting age based on maturity, I suspect all the | :09:23. | :09:34. | |
behavioural experts would give the vote to girls aged ten and two men | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
aged 25. So, trying to make a judgment on who is mature enough to | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
vote is much more subjective than picking an arbitrary age. There is a | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
huge advantage here. The advantage is that we know exact clear where | :09:50. | :09:55. | |
these young people are. They are in school. So, most schools have their | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
own data controls, and the government could easily request that | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
electoral registration officials should be given access to this | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
information. Does the noble lady believe that 16-year-olds should be | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
allowed to drink, drive and smoke? Look, I'm not getting into this | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
debate now. There is a much broader discussion. I think the whole | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
situation of what 16-18 -year-olds are allowed to do is a dogs | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
breakfast, and in fact you can have sex, but can't watch sex, which is | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
completely ridiculous. So, obviously, we need a broader debate | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
on these issues. I don't think this is the place to have that. I ought | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
to explain to the house that I am a convert to the idea of 16 and | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
17-year-olds being able to vote. At least many of them, not because | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
there are as many as I would wish, but many of them will have benefited | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
from citizenship education in school which is more than can be said for | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
the vast majority of the population. There are only four countries in the | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
world which allows 16-year-olds a vote. Austria, Nicaragua, Brazil, | :11:10. | :11:23. | |
where it is voluntary for 16-year-olds but compulsory for | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
older voters, and Cuba. Now, I don't think that Castro, although with the | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
current leadership of the Labour Party, I can see the attraction, is | :11:36. | :11:45. | |
a great symbol of democracy. My Lords. Content is, 293. Not content | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
is, 211. So, the contents have it. So peers there voting in favour | :11:50. | :11:56. | |
of lowering the voting age The issue will now go back to | :11:57. | :11:58. | |
the Commons. I was joined in the studio by | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
Philip Cowley, professor of politics He was part of the Youth Citizenship | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
Commission that studied the voting age issue, and by Yasmin | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
Rufo, who's a member of the Youth Parliament and a current trustee | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
of the British Youth council. I asked Professor Cowley | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
if his commission had found much public enthusiasm | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
for lowering the voting age. There is enthusiasm amongst a small | :12:26. | :12:36. | |
group of people but amongst the population as a whole, you have | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
opposition, really quite clear position in poll after poll and even | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
among 16-17 -year-olds, you find an ambivalence. There's no great | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
support there. The thing that struck me most wasn't just support or | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
opposition. It was that went a few years ago they were asked about a | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
range of political issues, they could find only one bit of the | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
Constitution that a majority of the public both supported and understood | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
which was the voting age being at 18. So there wasn't much | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
acknowledgement this was a whole argument? It isn't just there isn't | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
any acknowledgement or there is a problem, it is the only bit of the | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
Constitution that the majority of people understand and support. It is | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
very bizarre as an attempt to try to reinvent democracy that we take the | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
one bit that people like and change it against their will. OK, Yasmin, I | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
sense that you are a pent-up tiger, you want to get stuck in. I think | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
the point about 18-year-olds wanting to change this, everyone understands | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
the current aquatic process, why change it? A lot of people said this | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
when we looked at changing the voting age from 21 to 18 and when | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
votes are women were introduced. Everyone always brings up the idea | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
of it is in the democratic process, why do we need to change it? There | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
is a group of people in the current Democratic process. Young people | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
should be able to vote. We have to just look over at Scotland where we | :14:10. | :14:17. | |
had a huge turnout. 80% of 16 and 17-year-olds registered to vote. You | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
are passionate about bringing the voting age down to 16, but in the | :14:22. | :14:27. | |
main, are a lot of 16 and 17-year-olds, are then large numbers | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
of them that are passionate, or are some of them not interested in | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
politics? I think everyone is interested important ticks. If you | :14:36. | :14:39. | |
ask a 16-year-old which political party they support, they wouldn't | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
perhaps be able to tell you. Whether you're looking at your local youth | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
services, the transport links of how to get to school, six for more | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
university, these are political issues affecting 16 and 17-year-old | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
so everyone has an interest in politics. Maybe not partied | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
politics, but politics is definitely. Every single person in | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
the UK is interested. Do you think that is on the rise? Are you | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
confident more and more people are getting involved? There is a trend | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
to say there is an increase. If you look at the youth Parliament, which | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
I am part of, 965,000 people voted in the make your mark ballot, up | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
from half a million last year. So there is a rising trend in young | :15:26. | :15:28. | |
people engaging in politics, having a voice. | :15:29. | :15:40. | |
Philip Cowley, since you say things have moved on, not least in | :15:41. | :15:50. | |
Scotland? There was able debtor turnout for -- a better turn out | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
there for young people than in the 20s. This was a polarising event, | :15:57. | :16:05. | |
not like a general election. My argument with the idea that | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
everybody has a stake in politics, everybody does, ten-year-olds do, | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
but there has to be a cut-off point somewhere. Wherever you cut that | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
divide you will have people on the wrong side of it who feel it is | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
unfair but we have to find one age that people are agreed on. The | :16:28. | :16:35. | |
cut-off point? I agree there needs to be a cut-off point that currently | :16:36. | :16:42. | |
under 16-year-old a 16-year-old can pay National Insurance and income | :16:43. | :16:50. | |
tax. They can join the Armed Forces... No, they can't. They can | :16:51. | :16:56. | |
only join with parental consent and that very phrase, with parental | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
consent, tells you something about the way the state sees a 16 or | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
17-year-old. The same applies to marriage in England and. We have | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
now, since your commission sat, there is a far greater use of social | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
media and people are talking about climate change or whatever on | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
Twitter and Facebook. People are far more involved than a decade ago. | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
They are far more involved on Twitter because it didn't exist ten | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
years ago. I have seen no evidence that people are far more involved in | :17:31. | :17:36. | |
politics. Philip Cowley, history is probably in the favour of lowering | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
the voting age. The 1970s, we saw it go down from 21 to 18, is arguing | :17:43. | :17:51. | |
for it to go to 21 again. That age, 21, was way out of line with all | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
other rights and responsibilities. In recent years in Britain we have | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
seen quite a lot of age related responsibilities and move from 16 to | :18:03. | :18:06. | |
18, you can't buy cigarettes any more at 16 or go into a tanning | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
booth or a firework. These were things you could do at 16 until very | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
recently and the age has moved up. If you want to ask if it is coming, | :18:19. | :18:26. | |
I would say probably. Cigarettes and fireworks, these things actually | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
harm people. There is no medical evidence to suggest that voting | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
harms a 16 or 17-year-old, if anything it engages them more and | :18:35. | :18:40. | |
helps them feel accepted in society. I think we can agree that there is | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
no harm in voting at all. Thank you both very much for joining us. | :18:46. | :18:48. | |
Now a look at some of the other stories in Parliament | :18:49. | :18:52. | |
The Government has said it intends closing down all of the UK's | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
The news comes just ahead of the United Nations Climate | :18:57. | :19:00. | |
The Commons welcomed the announcement. | :19:01. | :19:09. | |
The announcement yesterday to phase out coal with gas is equivalent to | :19:10. | :19:17. | |
doubling the amount of renewables in our system, possibly the biggest | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
reduction of carbon ever announced by the Secretary of State. I thank | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
the honourable member for pointing out the announcement I made | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
yesterday which shows such strong leadership in reducing carbon | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
emissions in Europe and the world and it is interesting he draws | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
attention to asking me whether other European countries will do that. I | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
am not sure they will and we don't lecture our European friends but I | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
have had a lot of congratulations and comments about it positive | :19:47. | :19:47. | |
nature internationally. Almost 44 years after the day | :19:48. | :19:49. | |
in Londonderry that became known as Bloody Sunday, when 14 civilians | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
died, there's anger in the Commons What about the families of the 1441 | :19:57. | :20:10. | |
soldiers who died in Northern Ireland. It is immoral for the state | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
to seek nearly half a century after the event to put these men on trial | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
while others who deployed bombs and bullets in the Shadows are now in | :20:22. | :20:29. | |
government or received royal pardons. The government is not above | :20:30. | :20:38. | |
the law and neither should it be. It is the difference between us and the | :20:39. | :20:39. | |
terrorists. Junior doctors vote | :20:40. | :20:40. | |
for strike action over what they see as worse terms of employment, | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
as the Health Secretary aims He's fearful about the effects | :20:44. | :20:45. | |
of a doctors' strike. Something like delaying a cancer | :20:46. | :20:54. | |
clinic that means somebody gets a late diagnosis than they otherwise | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
would, these are things it will be very hard to avoid an impact on | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
patients. Proposals to give housing | :21:01. | :21:02. | |
association tenants the right to buy their homes prompts | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
deep concern at a committee session We were very disappointed and angry | :21:06. | :21:15. | |
and dismayed by the deal that was done. So I can watch all of my | :21:16. | :21:27. | |
painstakingth built up and then under these proposals sold off, who | :21:28. | :21:38. | |
knows? Replacement stock won't relate to the place the stock has | :21:39. | :21:44. | |
been lost from, is the fear. That the replacement stock will not be of | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
the same size. A couple of months back, | :21:50. | :21:54. | |
the future of devolution in Northern Ireland looked decidedly dodgy, | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
because of disagreements over the welfare budget and over fears of | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
continuing paramilitary activity. But a breakthrough came | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
on Wednesday. A deal was struck between the DUP | :22:04. | :22:06. | |
and Sinn Fein. A financial arrangement will help | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
those affected by welfare reforms and tax-credit | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
cuts, and a new watchdog to stop It means the | :22:16. | :22:22. | |
Northern Ireland Assembly The agreement places new obligations | :22:23. | :22:34. | |
on elected ministers to work together in ridding society of all | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
paramilitary groups and challenging such activity in all of its forms. | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
It has been a long ten weeks, many meetings, pretty gruelling, but I am | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
very conscious that whilst I have only been in gauge ten cross-party | :22:49. | :22:54. | |
talks for a couple of years there are many fine men and women in | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
Northern Ireland who have been engaged in this for 25 years. | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
Without devolution we would be back to direct rule, joint rule with | :23:03. | :23:10. | |
Dublin as far as Unionists are concerned. What we have now is a | :23:11. | :23:16. | |
fresh start which allows us to move forward. There are over 105,000 | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
low-paid families in Northern Ireland who will be grateful that | :23:23. | :23:25. | |
their tax credits will not be cut in the way they would have been under | :23:26. | :23:36. | |
direct real. She said publicly and consistently that there would not be | :23:37. | :23:42. | |
an agreement on the past without an agreement on welfare reform. We have | :23:43. | :23:48. | |
an agreement on welfare reform and still no agreement on the past. I | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
will continue to strive to find a way to get these legacy bodies set | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
up, it is crucially important for victims and survivors that we do. | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
Now with a brief round-up of some of the other events | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
around the political world this week, here's Sam Francis. | :24:06. | :24:13. | |
This is the 1st call for Cameron Airways. The Prime Minister is set | :24:14. | :24:20. | |
to get his own plane for official trips. The government says refitting | :24:21. | :24:26. | |
a plane will be cheaper than chartering flights. A new poll from | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
northern England says George Osborne may have to work a bit harder | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
promoting the northern powerhouse plan. | :24:35. | :24:37. | |
The BBC commissioned survey said almost two thirds of people had not | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
heard of the scheme or knew nothing about it. | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
Surprise surprise, Scotland's First Minister in the -- Nicola Sturgeon | :24:47. | :24:51. | |
has revealed a childhood passion for Cilla Black songs. She chose stepped | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
inside Love is one of her favourite tracks. | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
Stella Creasy was seeking a personal assistant for her concern in | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
Walthamstow. She said that choosing East 17 is not enough to get the job | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
done. Four peers have joined the House of | :25:14. | :25:17. | |
Lords this week. Two other peers have retired in the same period so | :25:18. | :25:24. | |
the grand total is now 808 and counting. | :25:25. | :25:35. | |
And there should be even more peers introduced this week. | :25:36. | :25:38. | |
There'll be intense interest on Wednesday when the Chancellor | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
George Osborne reveals all the secrets of his Autumn Statement | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
So, do join Georgina Pattinson for the next Week In Parliament. | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
But for now, from me, Keith MacDougall, goodbye. | :25:49. | :25:57. |
