Cameron Calls Labour MP A Dinosaur

Where's the best place to see a dinosaur? Well, according to David Cameron, in parliament at about 12:30 on a Wednesday.

After Labour MP Dennis Skinner suggested the prime minister should explain his reasons for appointing Andy Coulson to the Leveson inquiry into media standards, Cameron was quick to respond.

"It's good to see the honourable gentleman in such good form. I often say to my children 'no need to go to the national history museum to see a dinosaur, come to the House of Commons at about half past twelve'."

The prime minister added he'd be happy to go to Leveson as and when invited.

It's not the first time David Cameron has clashed with the old-school Labour MP during prime minister's questions.

Skinner previously criticised the "savage" and "lousy, rotten, Tory" government over cuts to disability benefits - where the prime minister could only suggest he go back to "dinosaur land".
