Bercow Joins Labour in Desperate Attempt To Gain Peerage

 

Absolutely no one was surprised by John Bercow's recent announcement that he had joined Labour.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Labour Party at this difficult time!

Boris Blocks Bercow's Peerage

How sad,

Too bad,

Never mind!

Diane Abbott Gets Her Facts Wrong and Berates Leakey

Allegations come from former parliamentary official David Leakey. He had been a Lieutenant General who served in Germany, Northern Ireland and Bosnia. But claims he was bullied (i.e. intimidated and coerced) by John Bercow. Unlikely. https://t.co/a3Z7rcJed1

Will someone please tell Diane that Leakey was referring to the bullying of others, as quite clearly reported in the Guardian!

As per the Guardian:

"He alleged that the former Speaker “brutalised people” with angry mood swings and outbursts. He told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “He would fly into a rage, the red mist would descend … jumping up and down and balling out. He called me an antisemite once after being rather rude and insulting about my background, education and military career.

“That’s the sort of intolerable behaviour which I called out. I think that John Bercow suggested this is rather opportunistic, but it’s not. I called him out two years ago and I did so because I was speaking up for people who were either unwilling to speak out for themselves or for one reason or another. I think some people have admitted they had gagging clauses and non-disclosure agreements when they left the Commons.”

Bye Bye Bercow

#BercowGate Rumbles On

Leadsom in the chamber just now on Bercow: "The issue is that the role of the chair is to uphold the rules that parliament has made for itself not to arbitrarily change those rules."

Labour Loves Bercow

Not stunned by much in politics. But pro-Bercow Labour saying Speaker's anti-Brexit role trumps bullying report is just jaw-dropping.

Bercow Irony Klaxon ALERT!!!

Unbelievable. Speaker John Bercow has decided to chair a debate about the bullying of Commons staff despite being accused of it last week. He denies the allegations.

The Pigs Win - Expense Records Destroyed

In a display of arrogance and disdain for the voters, Bercow's office has destroyed paperwork relating to MPs' expense claims made before 2010. The excuse being that the destruction was necessary to comply with data protection laws.

Unsurprisingly, this means that those MPs accused of abusing the expenses system will escape official investigation.

How "ironic"!
