Bank of England set to stop selling long-dated government debt

The central bank plans to halt sales of 20- and 30-year gilts this week following a major global selloff in debt markets. Officials expect the move to save the government two and a half billion pounds annually by the end of the decade. The potential change comes ahead of a budget statement from Prime Minister Andy Burnham's government in October.
