Watch PMQs with British Sign Language (BSL) – https://youtube.com/live/RPvgUkB8cL0?feature=share
Prime Minister’s Question Time, also referred to as PMQs, takes place every Wednesday the House of Commons sits. It gives MPs the chance to put questions to the Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer MP, or a nominated minister.
In most cases, the session starts with a routine ‘open question’ from an MP about the Prime Minister’s engagements. MPs can then ask supplementary questions on any subject, often one of current political significance.
The Leader of the Opposition, Kemi Badenoch MP, asks six questions and the leader of the second largest opposition party asks two. If another minister takes the place of the Prime Minister, opposition parties will usually nominate a shadow minister to ask the questions.

Journalists from the Times, the Mail and the Independent will give opening evidence on the Afghan data breach and on the super-injunction that prohibited reporting of the Afghan data breach for nearly two years will give evidence to the Defence Committee.
Holly Bancroft from the Independent, Larisa Brown from the Times, and Sam Greenhill from the Daily Mail, will appear together.
Members are likely to ask for the witnesses’ personal perspective on the unprecedented use of a super-injunction to protect those affected by the data breach, which also suppressed public debate and media and parliamentary scrutiny of the breach and the Government’s response to it.
The witnesses are also likely to be asked about the risk of Afghans who worked with UK forces being targeted for reprisals due to the data breach, as well as more generally.
