Harman Takes Last PMQs

Harriet Harman has had her last PMQs as Acting Labour Leader.

The next time David Cameron is questioned at the despatch box it will be the responsibility of the new leader, widely expected to be one of the Miliband brothers.

Ms Harman has had a very long frontbench career, both in opposition and government.

In my estimation, although perhaps not with quite enough aggression needed to unnerve the other side, Ms Harman has performed competently.

In response to the Prime Minister's warm words to her, she gave a truly memorable reply:

'I'm glad I'm not wearing a hoodie!'

Whoever succeeds her will need to use all their skills and experience to wrong-foot Mr Cameron and pull this coalition apart.
