PM attacks David Miliband's silence
DAVID Cameron taunted Labour leader Ed Miliband for not talking about the Greek crisis or the public sector strikes during Prime Minister's Questions.
He said Mr Miliband was avoiding talking about either issue because "he has nothing to say".
Instead, Mr Miliband pressed the Prime Minister on the creation of quangos in the NHS in England and was only rescued from an onslaught by Mr Cameron after an intervention from Speaker John Bercow. The Prime Minister said: "What the whole country will have noticed is, when people are worrying about strikes, he can't ask about strikes because he is in the pocket of the unions.
"What the whole country will have noticed is, when Greece is facing huge problems over its deficit, he can't talk about Greece because his plan is to make Britain like Greece.
"What the whole country will have noticed is, when the economy is the key issue, he can't talk about the economy because of his ludicrous plan for tax cuts."
