WATCH: Rachel Reeves scolded by Speaker for announcing new policy 'on TikTok' before informing MPs
المصدر: GB News | Source: GB NewsChancellor Rachel Reeves has been scolded by Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle for announcing her latest policies "on TikTok" ahead of her statement to MPs.
Reading a letter to the Chancellor, the Deputy Speaker said: "I have to say to the Chancellor that Mr Speaker has checked the ministerial code, and it makes clear that important policy announcements should be made in the first instance in this House when it is sitting.
"This House and its members should be the first to know what the Government is doing, not TikTok. Posting videos on social media announcing new policies before informing this House is not in line with the Government's own rules.
"This is a new parliamentary session and ministers must do better."
