Alicia McCarthy with all the latest news from Westminster.

Alicia McCarthy and the BBC's parliamentary team bring the news from Westminster, where Ed Miliband accuses David Cameron of breaking promises on health and education spending.

Ed Miliband accuses David Cameron of breaking a string of promises over spending on health and education during the last Prime Minister's question time before Christmas. In response, Mr Cameron says Mr Miliband is "dithering and has no answers on the economy". MPs debate a Government measure allowing the Treasury to lend Dublin more than £3 billion. And the Justice Secretary, Ken Clarke, insists there is no "dissent" within the Government over his proposals to close courts, cut legal aid and reform sentencing. Alicia McCarthy and team report on today's events in Parliament.
