Tory ministers face a backlash over “demented” plans to send Brits to their GP - for a doctor’s note discount off energy bills.
The idea is one of several drawn up by Treasury officials to cut bills this winter - and Liz Truss or Rishi Sunak could choose whether to implement it once in No10.
But Labour said ministers had “lost the plot” as waits to see a GP are already so high - and doctors don’t hold Brits’ financial records.
