NHS reforms, the AV referendum and housing were among the questions asked by backbench MPs at prime minister's questions today.
Jim Shannon (DUP, Strangford) called on the prime minister to condemn attacks on the democratic process in Northern Ireland.
David Cameron said scenes of people dressed in balaclavas in Northern Ireland are "completely unacceptable".
Brian Binley (Con, Northampton South) asked if there is a connection between the fall in construction in the growth figures and the fall in bank lending to businesses in March of £3.4bn.
In response, the prime minsiter said what is happening in the construction industry is disappointing, however overall the economy is growing.
Nadine Dorries (Con, Mid Bedfordshire) called on the prime minister to condemn a leaflet sent out by the yes to AV campaign. She said the document "insults Parliament".
Cameron said it is right to get back to the real arguments about competing election systems and that he was glad to see the "no" stickers displayed on the Labour benches.
Kevin Brennan (Lab, Cardiff West) asked if the health secretary’s job still guaranteed.
Cameron said the health secretary does an "excellent job".
"Let me draw a little contrast between what the health secretary is delivering here - real-terms increases in health spending - and what is happening in Wales," he said.
"The Labour-led administration is cutting the NHS in real terms. Everyone in Wales needs to know - if they get another Labour-dominated Assembly, they will get cuts in the NHS."
Adrian Sanders (Lib Dem, Torbay) called for a full judicial inquiry into phone hacking allegations, in particular the relationship between the Metropolitan Police and News International.
Cameron said that phone hacking is wrong and that the police investigation must take priority. He called on the authorities to follow the evidence wherever it leads.
Debbie Abrahams (Lab, Oldham East and Saddleworth) asked about the "pause" in the Health Bill and said it is political manoeuvering ahead of the local elections.
Cameron said that choice and accountability would be improved under the health reforms.
Peter Aldous (Con, Waveney) noted the importance of broadband in rural areas, such as Suffolk, to boost economic recovery.
Cameron said investment must be delivered, especially in those rural areas where broadband will be vital in driving the creation of small businesses.
William Cash (Con, Stone) called on the prime minister to say "no, no, no" to the 4.9 per cent planned EU Budget increase.
Cameron said this is "completely unacceptable" and he will make sure it does not happen.
Phil Wilson (Lab, Sedgefield) referred to a wind farm being built in his constituency and asked what powers his constituents will have under the Localism Bill.
Cameron said that local residents should have a say in planning applications so they can see a great benefit in terms of the finance that goes to the area.
Dr Sarah Woollaston (Con, Totnes) warned that the health reforms could be disastrous to medical training.
She asked: "Are you aware that there are concerns that current proposals to reorganise medical training and workforce planning could have similar unforeseen consequences?"
In response, Cameron said the Labour administration left medical training in a "complete shambles" and those mistakes will not be repeated by the coalition.
Bill Esterson (Lab, Sefton Central) highlighted the experience of patients in the North West, and pointed to the cancellation of operations, ward closures, and a lack of beds.
Cameron said that only one party at the last election committed to an increase in funding for the NHS in real terms.
Stephen Gilbert (Lib Dem, St Austell and Newquay) said almost 2 million families were waiting for housing while 1 million homes were standing empty, which indicated a housing crisis.
Cameron said the old top-down system for house building had not worked.
John Woodcock (Lab, Barrow and Furness) asked why hospital waiting times are going up across the country.
Cameron said they have been "broadly stable" over the last two years.
Fiona Bruce (Con, Congleton) asked about the "sexualisation and commercialisation of childhood".
In response, Cameron said he is worried that children are being asked to "grow up too early". He added that a report on the issue is due to be published shortly.
Ian Lucas (Lab, Wrexham) asked about funding of the hospice movement.
Cameron said gift aid has in fact been increased for charities like hospices. Again he hit out at the Labour-led Welsh Assembly and said people "cannot trust Labour" on the NHS.
Jonathan Evans (Con, Cardiff North) called on the prime minister to condemn the decision by the European Court Judgment that will mean young female drivers face a hike in insurance.
Cameron said a Labour MEP that welcomed the decision is an example of the "loony left" and condemned the decision by the court.
Jamie Reed (Lab, Copeland) said that nothing had been done to tighten restrictions on gun laws since the murders in Cumbria almost a year ago. He also called on the prime minister to bring an end to GP commissioning.
Cameron said the government is looking at the plans but investment is going into the NHS and the government wants to give GPs a bigger role to improve patient care.
Richard Harrington (Con, Watford) said £1.7m manufacturing jobs were lost under the Labour government. He asked what is being done to ensure this decline is reversed.
Cameron said UK based manufacturing is now increasing.
Paul Flynn (Lab, Newport West) asked about the impact of the Fukushima nuclear disaster on the plans for more reactors in the UK.
The prime minister said the British nuclear industry uses different reactors to those in Japan and a safety review will ensure all the issues are covered.
Ian Swales (Lib Dem, Redcar) asked if the prime minister will stand down in favour of fellow Tory David Davis, who would have beaten him if Tory MPs had used first past the post to elect their leader.
Cameron said when he beat Davis, the leader who won actually won (unlike in the Labour contest, he implies).
Ben Bradshaw (Lab, Exeter) said the economic recovery had "stalled" since Cameron came to power. Does he go back on his statement that unemployment will fall year on year.
Cameron said he was quoting the Office of Budget Responsibility. He said he not talk the economy down along with the "doom mongers" on the front bench.
Lee Scott (Con, Ilford North) asked the prime minister to call for an independent international review following the UN report into the crimes committed by the Sri Lankan government against the Tamil people.
Cameron said there are still "unanswered questions from that period" and he will look closely at what it says.
Henry Smith (Con, Crawley) congratulated his local council on freezing council tax.
Cameron said every single council in the country has given their council tax payers a council tax freeze.
