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

It was the last PMQs of the year on Wednesday the 17th of December,

and amidst all the festive references and Christmas cracker-style jokes,

Sekeir Stama had a special message for the Russian oligarch, Roman Abramovich.

Parliament starts its Christmas break later today.

And there was an end of term air when MPs gathered for Prime Minister's questions.

Sakeir Stama and the Conservative leader Kemiemi Badoadnock, arrived at more or less

the same time, which prompted a bout of competitive cheering.

Right, let us come to Prime Minister's questions.

Sekea Stama wished everyone a happy Christmas.

And a little festive advice to those in reform.

If mysterious men from the East appear bearing gifts,

this time, this time report it to the police.

A reference to Nathan Gill, the former leader of Reform UK in Wales,

who was jailed for 10 and a half years for accepting bribes to make pro-Russia speeches.

The Reform UK leader, Nigel Farage, who'd swapped his usual place in the chamber

for a seat close to the reporter's gallery joined in the laughter.

The Conservative leader called the cabinet a bunch of turkeys and attacked the Prime Minister

over tax, unemployment and the doctor's strike in England. He promised to bring down unemployment,

it's up. He promised he wouldn't increase taxes. They're up. He promised to bring down unemployment, it's up. He promised he wouldn't increase taxes.

They're up.
