The country has to wait while Rishi Sunak "plucks up the courage" to challenge his own MPs on Northern Ireland - Keir Starmer

In this week's PMQs highlights, Keir Starmer and Rishi Sunak clashed over the issue of Northern Ireland and the deal Rishi Sunak is currently attempting to negotiate.

Stephen Flynn accused energy companies of intending to "raid the pockets of ordinary Scots while lining the pockets of Westminster" - as he called on the government to do more to protect households from rising energy bills.

And Matt Western accused the PM of being "no stranger to paying fines" as he questioned the government on nurses salaries.
