5 live's political correspondent John Pienaar summarises David Cameron's response to the culture secretary Maria Miller's resignation during Prime Minister's Questions.

Mrs Miller was cleared of funding a home for her parents at taxpayers' expense, but was told to repay 拢5,800 of the expenses she claimed. The independent parliamentary commissioner for standards had previously recommended she repay 拢45,000.

But the lower sum was approved by the Commons Standards Committee, which has the final say on whether to accept the commissioner's recommendations, a decision which sparked a backlash across the political spectrum and calls for changes in how complaints against MPs are investigated.
