00:00 He'd make us an each way bet.
00:02 [Cheering]
00:04 Well Mr Speaker, he says he stands by his commitments.
00:08 He once insisted, insisted, that if he missed his promises,
00:12 these are the words he used, "I'm the Prime Minister" and then he said, "It's on me personally."
00:18 Today we learn from his own officials that he's the blocker to any deal to end the doctor strikes.
00:24 And he's always, every time he's asked he blames everyone else.
00:27 So what exactly did he mean when he said, "It's on him personally" if he doesn't meet his promise?
00:34 [Cheering]
00:36 Mr Speaker, we are bringing the waiting list down for the longest waiters for making progress.
00:41 But it's a bit rich, Mr Speaker, to hear about promises from someone who's broken every single promise he was elected on.

01:32 Parading as a man of integrity when he's got absolutely no responsibility.
01:38 [Murmurs]
01:44 Either side. I think the Member's getting carried away.
01:50 Can I just say that our constituents want to hear the questions and they certainly want to hear the answers.
01:56 They don't want to hear organised barracking. So please, I want no more.
02:00 Keir Starmer.
02:02 I think the role of the Prime Minister is to ensure that every single citizen in this country feels safe and respected.
02:08 It's a shame the Prime Minister doesn't share that.
02:11 I welcome the fact that he's finally admitted that he's failed on waiting lists in the NHS.
02:16 I also welcome that he's finally acknowledged that he's failed on waiting lists in the NHS.
