He is much more entitled to a pierage.

End Of Pier shows are quite popular in Northern seaside resorts, full of blaggards, impersonators, dummies and no-hopers. His reception would however be muted and the stage door johnnies might be few.

Having watched the shennagins in the HoC over the last few days, I actually feel sorry for Mr Bercow.
He's had to sit through all the prattle, arguement, counter arguement, repeated rhetoric without a break. No wonder he is the way he is. LOL

He doesn't have to, that's what the deputy speaker is for.

He simply cant stand the thought of not being there to grandstand. Probably wears a nappy.

Now there’s likely to be an extension will he still go on the 31st?

Hope so. The blood pressure elevations he clearly provokes amongst some must be thinning the gammon out...

He is being coached by Jared O'Mara

Not with dry-salting or brining, they boost gammon longevity.

I do hope Boris follows Bercows lead in breaking conventions and withholds his peerage, Now I would drink to that.
TBH, despite his pomposity I really don’t think he’d be that bothered if/when he doesn’t get one. He’ll be happy enough that he’s left his mark on British politics, albeit for the wrong reasons.
More a stain than a mark.

Hopefully he’ll carry on until Brexit is decided one way or another.
He knows every trick in the book being tried by the lying party.
The incompetents who were so thick they tried to put the same bill twice. After being done for the sake scam in March! Then the idiots feign anger...
What a joke they are, good work Bercow.

Hopefully he will keep to his word. His deputy is very experienced and competent- just grandstands less.

I’d love a ring tone that went “OOOOorrrrrddduuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrr” every time the phone rang.


People in work would be apoplectic with rage.

Fairly easy depending on your tech skills.

Then just find an online youtube to MP3 converter (be careful, some apps are very risky, use web based services)... then most phones will take the MP3 as a ringtone.

No, I'm pretty sure it's a repeat...

Joking apart, I too hope that he will stay until the WA Bill has passed into law or - by some other route - we have clarity on Brexit.
