Tempers flared in the House of Commons today after the government was accused of deliberately sidelining Parliament in its rollout of the Strategic Defense Review. The Prime Minister delivered a speech and held a press conference in Glasgow this morning, alongside other media appearances, before formally addressing MPs a move that has sparked outrage from both backbenchers and committee members.

One MP stood to deliver a passionate statement just before the next item of business, saying, “This shows complete disregard for the House and for the honorable members. Ministers, when they were in opposition, never missed a chance to complain when policy was announced outside Parliament. But now in government, memories are short. What’s changed? I’ll tell you what’s changed a total disregard for the members who sit on the back benches.”

The Speaker of the House responded, acknowledging that an urgent question had been answered on a similar issue back on May 14, and reaffirmed the government’s commitment to keeping Parliament informed. However, the Speaker also voiced dissatisfaction, stressing, “I’m not satisfied. Backbenchers should hear it first. I don’t care how many statements have been made in this House it’s the ones that haven’t been made here that we need to talk about.”

The controversy deepened when it emerged that industry representatives were reportedly given early access to the Strategic Defense Review at 10:30 AM before MPs and even members of the Defense Select Committee had a chance to read it. This revelation sparked further concern about transparency and fairness, especially considering the market-sensitive nature of the multi-billion pound defense sector.

One MP, clearly frustrated, declared, “There’s something fundamentally wrong here. Journalists and industry insiders got to see this first, but not the very people elected to oversee such decisions. I am very, very concerned.”

Despite efforts to maintain the day’s tight parliamentary schedule which includes two urgent questions, a critical second reading debate, and a major statement the issue has now become a flashpoint, raising questions about whether the government is respecting its obligation to inform Parliament first, not last.
