PMQs LIVE: Kemi Badenoch to clash with Keir Starmer as Farage set for fresh protest

Kemi Badenoch is set to clash with Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at the dispatch box during PMQs amid controversy over the government's economic and immigration policies. The Tory leader dropped a strong hint about what she was likely to lead on with a post on X on Wednesday in the wake of a fatal stabbing in Uxbridge, with an Afghan national who arrived in the UK illegally allegedly arrested.

She said: "This man, granted asylum in Britain, has been arrested on suspicion of murdering an innocent person and violently attacking a child." Ms Badenoch is also likely to press Sir Keir on Labour's decision to block the release of the files after the alleged China spy case collapsed "on their watch", as she put it.

Meanwhile, Reform UK leader Nigel Farage may repeat last week's decision to sit in the public gallery in protest at not being given a weekly question at PMQs.
