    SPOT ON.

    Who else could I've been referring to?

    Speakers are meant to be neutral (as is the monarch) BUT from the moment he declared he'd voted Remain, in a TV interview, his neutrality was a stupid question - his wife's car even carried an EU/Scrap Brexit sticker.

    Imho he was a disgrace to his position and should have been removed from it a long time ago - that's ignoring the allegations made against him, by Parliamentary staff, of bullying and abuse.

    All a case of preference I suppose.
    Anyone that has issues with bojo seems perfectly rational to me.

    Amazingly though MP’s thanked him, during PM’s question time, for his contributions over the years. ‘‘Twas quite nauseating really.

    I enjoyed him.
    As for being neutral, well as we all know, referees are always crap whichever side you're on..

    He hired a chauffeur driven limo at a (on expenses) cost of £120 to go to a meeting 1/4 mile away. We're all in it together. Nasty little git ----- and if we were to end up remaining, I'd bet my hat he'd be one of the first to be seen accepting ( an awaiting) fortune making cushy EU position .

    Politeness can always (and was, in some tributes) be spoken through gritted teeth.

    Johnson has only been in office since July, Bercow has been bullying/abusing for 10 years!

    Don’t recall brexiters complaining about his partiality when he was allowing them time to debate their amendments. Weird that.

    Shocking yes, but the place is packed with selfish opportunists, one as bad as the other imo.

    Yep, give him time, he'll be abusing power with the best of them. Just like he did as Mayor of London.

    Enjoy that boot heel.
