>>Danny Kinahan (South Antrim) (UUP): If he will list his official engagements for Wednesday

>>The Prime Minister (Mr David Cameron):I know that the whole House will join me in

congratulating Andy Murray, Heather Watson, Jordanne Whiley, Gordon Reid and Alfie Hewett

This morning, I had meetings with ministerial colleagues and others. Other than one meeting

this afternoon with Her Majesty the Queen, the diary for the rest of my day is remarkably

>>Danny Kinahan: May I echo the Prime Minister’s congratulations to Andrew Murray and all the

other winners? We thank the Prime Minister for all his hard work and his leadership—[Hon.

Members: “Hear, hear”!]—particularly his commitment to the Union and to Northern

Ireland, visiting it often and swimming in Lough Erne. Perhaps he would like to come

and swim in Lough Neagh. The Ulster Unionist party looks forward to working with the next

Prime Minister. I am told that there are lots of leadership roles out there at the moment—there

is the England football team and “Top Gear”. Even across the Big Pond, there is a role

that needs filling. I will if I may go into my pet subject.

>>Stephen Pound (Ealing North) (Lab): In your own time, Danny.

Brexit really threatens the Union. Will the Prime Minister work with his successors to

ensure that we have somebody that will pull together all the countries of the Union and

the overseas territories so that we can all work and thrive together?

>>The Prime Minister: Let me thank the hon. Gentleman for his kind remarks and fascinating

suggestions for future jobs, most of which sound even harder than this one, so I think

I’ll pass. I believe that Northern Ireland is stronger than it was six years ago—58,000

more people in work, the full devolution of justice and home affairs delivered under this

Government, the Saville report published, record inward investment and the creation

of new jobs. Like him, I care passionately about our United Kingdom, as do all of us

in this House. We need to make sure that, as we leave the European Union, we work out

how to keep the benefits of the common travel area. Hard work is being done now with civil

servants in Northern Ireland, Whitehall and the Republic of Ireland, and the pace of that

>>Jack Lopresti (Filton and Bradley Stoke) (Con): I, too, pay tribute to my right hon.

Friend for all the hard work that he has done leading this great country for the past few

years. My right hon. Friend’s lasting legacy will include supporting the Kurds whose peshmerga

are bravely fighting Daesh in all our interests. Having visited the peshmerga on the frontline,

I know that our airstrikes, weapons and training are crucial, but peshmerga injuries could

be reduced with additional equipment such as body armour, respirators and front-line

medical facilities, and we possibly could provide some beds in our specialist hospital

in Birmingham to the most seriously injured. Does he agree that that is a relatively small

investment that would make a huge difference to our allies in our common fight to defeat

>>The Prime Minister: First, I thank my hon. Friend for his kind remarks. He is absolutely

right that the Kurds are incredibly brave fighters and are doing valuable work against

Daesh in Iraq and Syria. I will look carefully at his suggestion of using the Birmingham

hospital. The Queen Elizabeth Hospital has excellent facilities for battlefield casualties.

Our Army is already providing medical instruction to the peshmerga to help them deal with the

situation, but we will look to see whether more can be done. Let us be frank, the strategy

is working. Daesh is on the back foot: it has lost 45% of the territory that it once

held in Iraq; its finances have been hit; more than 25,000 Daesh fighters have now been

killed; desertion has increased; and the flow of foreign fighters has fallen by 90%. I have

always said that this will take a long time to work in Iraq and Syria, but we must stick

>>Jeremy Corbyn (Islington North) (Lab): May I start by joining the Prime Minister in paying

tribute to the British winners at Wimbledon—Andy Murray, Heather Watson, Jordanne Whiley, Alfie

Hewett and Gordon Reid? Also, I think it would be nice if we congratulated Serena Williams

It is only right that after his six years as Prime Minister, we thank the right hon.

Gentleman for his service. I have often disagreed with him, but some of his achievements I welcome

and want to recognise today. One is helping to secure the release of Shaker Aamer from

Guantanamo Bay; another is legislating to achieve equal marriage in our society. I am

sure he would like to acknowledge that it was Labour votes that helped him to get the

legislation through. Will he express some concern at the way that homelessness has risen

in this country for the past six years and looks like it is going to continue to rise?

>>The Prime Minister: I thank the right hon. Gentleman for his kind remarks. I join him

in paying tribute to Serena Williams, who has now overtaken Steffi Graf’s amazing

I thank the right hon. Gentleman for what he said about Shaker Aamer. That was a case

that this Government raised again and again with the US Government, and we are pleased

that it has been resolved. I thank him also for what he said about equal marriage. There

are 30,000 gay people in our country who, in the past six years, have been able to get

married. That is real progress. I will never forget the day at No. 10 when one of the people

who works very close to the front door said to me, “I’m not that interested in politics,

Mr Cameron, but because of something your lot have done, I am able to marry the person

I’ve loved all my life this weekend.” There are many amazing moments in this job,

As for homelessness, it is still 10% below the peak that we saw under Labour, but the

key is building more homes. We have built 700,000 homes since I became Prime Minister,

but now we need to quicken the pace of that. The key to building more homes is, yes, programmes

such as Help to Buy; yes, the reforms to the planning system, but the absolute key is a

>>Jeremy Corbyn: I have been listening carefully to what the Home Secretary has been saying

“It’s harder than ever for young people to buy their first house.”

Does the Prime Minister think that is because of record low house building or his Government’s

apparent belief that £450,000 is an affordable price for a starter home?

>>The Prime Minister: First, let me say at the Dispatch Box how warmly I congratulate

the Home Secretary on becoming leader of the Conservative party. When it comes to women

Prime Ministers, I am very pleased to be able to say that pretty soon it is going to be

On the issue of housing and homelessness, as I said, 700,000 homes have been delivered.

The right hon. Gentleman asked about affordability, which is key. When I became Prime Minister,

because of what had happened to the mortgage market, a first-time buyer often needed to

have as much as £30,000 to put down a deposit. Because of the combination of Help to Buy

and shared ownership, some people are able to get on the housing ladder now with a deposit

of as little as £2,000. With the low mortgage rates and the new houses we are building,

>>Jeremy Corbyn: The malaise seems a little deeper still. The Home Secretary said, talking

“so that it really does work for everyone. Because it is apparent to anybody who is in

touch with the real world that people do not feel our economy works that way”.
