re: #643 yma o hyd

John Bercow - hm … the consensus here is that this was yet another fiddle by the NuLab party to get the man they wanted.
There was a huge amount of arm-twisting going on behind the scenes, by the Labour whips because Bercow is not trusted in the Tory party - and he’s been fiddling his expenses as well - and that was exactly the reason NuLab did their best to get him in.
He may turn out ok, time will tell - but the one we wanted was Anne Widdecombe, because she would only have beens peaker for the time of this Parliament, she is standing down.

Yeah - all cry for ‘change’ - but nothing changes …

Whoa! Thank you for the info! I obviously didn’t hear any of that here. I guess I should have been a little suspicious by the number of NuLab votes he received!
