Labour double down on Starmer's 'working class dementia tax' claim

Sky News' political editor Beth Rigby says the government's social care policy is "politically difficult" for the PM as it can be claimed to be not what he promised in the Conservatives' election manifesto.

"Sir Keir Starmer really tried to pin him down on that," she says of PMQs.

"We heard what Starmer said, he's now dubbed it the 'working class dementia tax'.

"Labour's going to double down on that, they've released party research that shows in two-thirds of Northern areas the average homeowner will be disproportionately hit.

"The government have finally tried to grasp the nettle in beginning to deal with social care and get it funded.

"But the changes they have brought in at the last moment to this policy mean, according to Andrew Dilnot - the man who originally came up with this scheme - that those with fewer assets are less likely to benefit.

"So it disproportionately harms people on lower incomes.

"If Keir Starmer can make that stick, he will think that politically that is a benefit to him and help win back some of those people who deserted Labour at the last election."

Blackford claims the PM's 'looking increasingly isolated'

The SNP's Westminster leader Ian Blackford shared a clip on Twitter of his exchange with Boris Johnson at PMQs today.

How did the PM, and Starmer, do?

Analysis by Kate McCann, political correspondent

A fairly loud PMQs but did we really learn much? 

Sir Keir Starmer had a lot of pressure on his shoulders to perform this week, with a wealth of material to choose from. He avoided a Peppa Pig joke (perhaps it's getting a little old now鈥�) but had a few digs at Boris Johnson over his party's loyalties, whether he would be the leader at the next election and whether he's coming off the rails when it comes to decision-making. 

He landed a few blows, but in choosing to use all his questions on social care 鈥� a subject the PM is now used to combating difficult questions on 鈥� he didn't get very far in policy terms. 

Perhaps that didn't matter though, Sir Keir used his new phrase, calling the social care changes a working class dementia tax, a line Labour hopes will stick. 

Whether it's accurate 鈥� whether everyone who would be affected by the policy would consider themselves to be working class - is another matter. 

In terms of Boris Johnson, he just about made it through. His party had largely filled the green benches, the few gaps could be explained away and there was enough noise to convince those watching that no leadership challenge will be forthcoming in the weeks ahead. 

But the PM didn't have much new to say and questions on social care and rail only serve to remind those Conservatives worried about broken promises that these issues won't go away. 

The PM's honeymoon is 'most definitely over', Labour MP claims

Labour MP Clive Lewis made the claim after saying he'd been "looking at Tory MPs behind Boris Johnson" at PMQs.

Boris Johnson says legislation will be introduced to ban the import of hunting trophies

Labour MP John Spellar asks if the PM will tell his whips not to block a bill on 10 December about banning the import of hunting trophies, so that "we can work together and end this vile trade".

The PM says he's "completely right" which is why legislation will be introduced this parliament to ban the import of hunting trophy.

PM signals Chinese firms won't be part of UK nuclear plans

Labour's Matthew Pennycook asks the PM about Chinese involvement in UK nuclear power projects.

In a signal that Chinese state-controlled firms won't be part of UK nuclear plans, Mr Johnson replies: "We don't want to see undue influence by potentially adversarial countries in our critical national infrastructure".

But he adds: "What I don't want to do is pitchfork away wantonly all Chinese investment in this country or minimise the importance of this country having a trading relationship with China."
