  2. Devolutionpublished at 12:28

    Labour's Diane Abbott asks about devolution to the nations and regions of the UK. She says London will expect at least the same powers that are given to the "Northern Powerhouse". The PM says it is a "powerful point" and notes that discussions are taking place with Boris Johnson - adding that the mayor is doing a "very good job" of running London. That gets a cheer from the Conservative benches.

    Cat Smith

    The first question from a new MP, Labour's Cat Smith. She asks when the UK will regain its triple A credit rating. Mr Cameron seeks to make a joke of this, suggesting it shows a new-found recognition in the opposition of the need for fiscal discipline and sustainably. He says that Ms Smith is "making more sense" than all contenders to lead her party and she should stand herself, encouraging her to "go for it". 

  7. Syria and Iraqpublished at 12:23

    Conservative MP John Baron asks about the Middle East and the risk of refugee camps becoming a "breeding ground for terrorism". The PM says the situation is far worse in Syria than in Iraq and insists the UK must focus on its policy of supporting moderate opposition in that country and backing the Iraq government in its fight against Islamic State.

    SNP MP Angus Robertson has two questions. He focuses on the migrant crisis in the Mediterranean, asking about the UK's obligations to asylum seekers and other refugees from persecution, suggesting the government is doing less than other EU countries.
