Stay tuned for coverage from 12:00
12:03: Cameron pays tribute to the 3 soldiers killed in Afghanistan this week.
12:04: Tory backbencher Phillip Davies opens proceedings by calling for prisoners to be denied access to Sky TV. Cameron’s response is true blue: too many prisoners, too many of them in Britain illegally and not enough money.
12:05: Harman rises, talking on unemployment, which has risen this morning. It’s effectively cuts now versus cuts later. Cameron regrets the situation (to much noise from the opposition) and pledges that back to work initiatives will be enacted in next week’s budget.
12:08: Harman re-iterates her point. Cameron responds by saying that Labour hasn’t given any concrete spending plans of her. Evenly matched so far and not very revealing.
12:09: Now Harman uses the OBR’s findings that the economy is not as bad as expected.
