Stay tuned for live coverage of PMQs.
1200: We’re about to start. Brown is flanked by Harriet Harman and Jim Murphy. Douglas Alexander, Alistair Darling and Alan Johnson are also on the front bench. The heavy hitters are out in force…
1201: And here we go, for what could be Brown’s last ever PMQs as Prime Minister. He starts, as usual, with condolences for fallen soldiers.
1202: The first question is as plantlike as they come: will Brown take £6 billion “out of the economy”? Brown spins the usual dividing line about investing in frontline services, adding that the Tories would risk a “double dip” recession. Hm.
1204: Massive cheer from the Tory benches as Cameron stands up. The Tory leader says that this is the last chance, of this Parliament, for Brown to admit accountability for his mistakes. His first question: were there enough helicopters for our troops in Afghanistan. A fiery start.
