Order! Order.

Hello, I'm Sean Curran, and this is today in Parliament from BBC Radio 4.

For Wednesday the 11th of February, when the Conservative leader said the Prime Minister

should be ashamed of appointing his former Director of Communications to the Lords in spite of his previous association with a

paedophile. How dare he criticise us? We weren't the one stuffing government with hypocrites and

paedophile apologists. Sakeer Stama defends his decision. Matthew Doahl did not give a full account of his actions.

And on Monday, I promised my party and my country there will be changed.

Also tonight, health officials defend the vaccination system.

As much as all of us, I think, in this room today are committed to doing as much as we can to improve vaccination rates, particularly in young children, is not going to turn around overnight.

But first, after a difficult week for Sarkir Stama, Labour MPs turned out in force and full voice for this week's Prime Minister's questions.

The cheering started as soon as the Prime Minister appeared.

Sarkier Stama was grinning as he sat down next to the Chancellor Rachel Reeves.

And there were more cheers a few minutes later when he stood at the dispatch box to begin

PMQs by listing his official engagements for the day.

Some of the cheers and shouts of more

came from the Conservatives on the other side of the chamber.

Can I just say I didn't know the Prime Minister was that popular on this side?

And there was a moment of self-deprecating humour from the Prime Minister was that popular on this side. And there was a moment of self-deprecating humour from the Prime Minister.

Mr Speaker, this morning I had meetings with Ministerial colleagues,

and there's been quite a few of those this week.

In addition to my duties in this House, I shall have further such meetings later today.
