Mind your PMQs

    David Cameron in PMQs condemned the fact that Labour had allowed back into its ranks one Gerry Downing….. “I was completely appalled to see yesterday that the Labour Party have readmitted someone to their party who says that the 9/11 suicide bombers, and I quote, “must never be condemned”, and belongs to an organisation that says “we defend the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq”.
