Sir Lindsay Hoyle said the Tories are not treating the House with the “respect that it’s due” after recent policy announcements were leaked to the media before MPs.

The Commons speaker made an announcement before business got underway in the chamber today.

“I am so disappointed and I hope that we will treat the House with the respect that it’s due”, he said.

Earlier this week it was revealed that energy bills for UK businesses will be cut by around half their expected level this winter under a huge government support package.

The scheme will fix wholesale gas and electricity prices for firms for six months from 1st October, shielding businesses from crippling costs.

Hospitals, schools and charities will also get help, the government said.

It comes after ministers announced a multi-billion pound plan to help households with bills for two years.

Analysts suggest the help for firms and households combined could cost up to £150 billion.

It will be paid for by government debt that will be serviced by the taxpayers for years to come.
