CHAIN OF COMMAND

Theresa May goes for bling at first post-summer PMQs as she steps out in bold choice of neckware

Prime Minister heads off for showdown with Jeremy Corbyn in first Commons clash since summer recess

THERESA May appeared at the despatch box wearing a bold choice of neckware for the first PMQs after the summer recess.

MPs were keen to find out what her plan is for Brexit and get an update on her meetings with other world leaders at the G20 summit in China.

But the Prime Minister's jewellery stole the show as she was pictured in a chunky chain as she left Downing Street ahead of the Commons clash with Jeremy Corbyn.

During PMQs the Labour leader attacked the Government on housebuilding, but Mrs May responded by saying he is leading a divided party and making a joke about the #traingate row.

She said of Labour: "Even on rolling stock, they are a laughing stock."

She opened Prime Minister's Questions by congratulating the UK's Olympic team and adding her best wishes to the Paralympians in Rio.

But she was quickly challenged on housing by Mr Corbyn, and asked to say whether the dream of home ownership is just "a dream" for most people.

Mrs May replied that the government was helping people get on the housing ladder and said house building is up, but added that she's not complacent.

The Labour leader attacked her on that claim, saying the number of houses being built is 45,000 a year lower than under the last Labour government.
