Speaker rebukes Badenoch over ‘totally not acceptable’ handling of EU law plans

Commons Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle has scolded Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch over her handling of changes to post-Brexit plans to scrap EU laws.

Sir Lindsay snapped “who do you think you’re speaking to?” after Ms Badenoch said she was sorry the sequencing of the announcement was “not to your satisfaction”.

The Speaker was initially left unhappy after the change to Government policy was not announced via an oral statement to the House by a minister, but instead appeared in a newspaper and MPs were updated by a written statement.

Sir Lindsay has had several run-ins with ministers since becoming Speaker over his desire to guarantee MPs are told first of major announcements.

MPs also criticised Ms Badenoch for her “tin ear” and “patronising” approach in response to questions over the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill.

cynical Badenoch just oozes the quality of arrogance. dreadful to think Badenoch could have been our unelected prime minister inflicting prejudiced policy's selfishness and unchecked greed from tory cronyism against the working-class and people who are less fortunate in life having to claim state benefits.

Pleased to see she is showing respect to the poorer classes by wearing those NHS kids glasses from 1978.
