Recent appearances

• Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister: Engagements 25 Mar 2015

  I have here a cutting from The Pressin York on 24 April 2010, which says: “David Cameron last night dismissed claims the Tories would put up VAT if they win the election”. That was at the last election. Why should the public believe promises that he makes at the coming election?

  To ask the Prime Minister, whether he plans to visit York before 7 May 2015.
