With elections looming across the country the Commons was only half-full for Prime Minister’s Questions (PMQs).

That did not stop the chamber from being twice as angry as normal, however.

It is not every day that the leader of the Opposition is forced to distance himself from terrorists.

Time and time again David Cameron asked Jeremy Corbyn to disown comments that he considered Hamas and Hezbollah, who, the Prime Minister bellowed, "believe in killing Jews", as ‘friends’.

In response, Mr Corbyn looked Mr Cameron right in the eye and told him that he agreed with him.

Leicester’s premiership win was indeed remarkable.

That answer prompted some sniggers on the Labour benches.

But the Prime Minister refused to give up and asked Mr Corbyn the same question.

This time the Labour leader told him "I absolutely do not approve of those organisations", and insisted that he had made the comment in a bid to help the peace process in the Middle East.

But that was not enough for Mr Cameron.

“Withdraw that they are your friends!" he shouted at the Islington North MP.

Some Labour MPs looked relieved when the Conservative leader moved on to talk about controversial preacher Sulaiman Ghani.

Interviews given by Mr Ghani in the last week allowed Labour MPs to shout back: "He's a Tory!"

Mr Corbyn also hit back at Mr Cameron over the allegations of racism that have dogged the Tory campaign for London mayor.

It was only later in PMQs that Mr Cameron announced a U-turn on taking in unaccompanied child refugees stranded in Europe.

After 41 minutes the supposedly half an hour long session was over.

And with only a couple of mentions of Leicester.
