Prime Minster Cameron finished the year in style!

Yesterday was the last PMQs of the year, because of other commitments I watched half of it last night and finished the rest this afternoon. Of course, these days with Twitter I had a good idea how it went before sitting down to watch. Nevertheless, I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed watching it.

Cameron has definitely ended 2011 on a high, but can’t say the same for the leaders of the opposition – who although has started well with an ‘obvious’ question on unemployment – he failed to maintain his momentum and went downhill fast! Sadly for Miliband, it got worse when he tried to use Clegg’s presence (the DPM was headlines news with his absence on Monday) to taunt the PM only for Cameron to comeback with the fabulous: ‘It’s not like we’re brothers or anything.’

However, what stood out for me more than the gibes and an over excited house was the Prime Minister’s complimenting backbenchers around the Chamber. He praised David Blunkett (somehow I thought it was John Reid who did) for creating citizenship ceremonies, Yvonne Fovargue, for her work on Citizens’ Advice Bureau both Lab MPs plus he thanked Eddie McKay, a senior doorkeeper and a war veteran, for his service.

Throughout the session, David Cameron showed confidence and compassion, he was simply awesome – Merry Christmas and a very Happy 2012 to all who work in the Houses of Parliament.
