PMQs coming up at noon: Andrew Grice and I standing by to comment on Facebook video afterwards facebook.com/pg/indypolitic…
Corbyn says “I acknowledge it is Armed Forces Day” (on Sat) & asks about arms sales to Saudi Arabia #PMQs
That’s 3x PM has said govt is seeking to appeal the court judgment with no “against”
Now Corbyn’s doing it
Corbyn fails to press strong moral case against arms sales to Saudi Arabia effectively, with usual scattergun Qs
Ian Blackford at it again, calling Boris Johnson a liar; John Bercow tactically ignoring his breach of parliamentary rules
Blackford started off well: “It’s no wonder she’s leaving – that was no answer at all”
Good Q from Nick Thomas-Symonds, Lab, on universal credit: “Will she simply leave this injustice burning?”
PM says: “It’s working”
Alistair Burt deftly puts down Corbyn’s Lennonist simplification of Yemen conflict: “Best to recognise horrors of war on both sides” #PMQs
Interesting support for Corbyn from Tory benches from Andrew Mitchell, contradicting Burt, asking for UK to move to position of “much greater neutrality” in Yemen
Video: Andrew Grice and I about to go live to discuss Theresa May's 5th last #PMQs facebook.com/pg/indypolitic…

Video: Andrew Grice doesn't think Corbyn will table a motion of no confidence in new PM's govt on 25 July
