Stay tuned for live coverage of PMQs from 1200 onwards.
1203: A breaking news item worth mentioning: Gordon Brown’s buddy, James Crosby, has resigned his role at the FSA.
1204: Here’s Brown now. He faces a question on Crosby, and responds: “It’s right that James Crosby resigned his role.”
1205: Cameron now. “They can even plant questions at short notice”. He leads on Crosby too. “Does the PM accept that it was a serious error of judegment on his part to appoint [Crosby] in the first place.” On the offensive from the off. Brown responds by citing a KPMG report.
1208: I bet Brown’s wishing Crosby had resigned half-an-hour later. Cameron brings up the issue of the banker’s knighthood. Brown says Crosby is no longer an economic adviser for the Government.
1209: Cameron: “Why can’t the PM ever admit an error of judgement” . Tory MPs are taunting Brown with cries of “Sorry!”
1210: This is fiery stuff.
