John Bercow has been snapped by the supremely talented @StefanRousseau of PA arriving for his last day at work. Of course he lives in the House of Commons so it's likely he had to leave and come back in again to do this. pic.twitter.com/JaI6qjoFPP

Uh oh. Donald Trump tells @LBC he's warned Boris Johnson his Brexit deal might hamper free trade agreement with the US: 'This deal, to be honest, some aspects of it, you cannot do a trade deal with the UK.'

was wondering about taht after reading about his influence in the process so far a couple of weeks back.
I don't know what the selection process for his replacement is so how good things will be from today.

I see bloke with horrible accent and womans name is massively odds on fav. I suppose he has done his 9 year apprenticeship of yelling shit from 18th century dust books in his horrible accent.

calzino, Thursday, 31 October 2019 19:33 (four years ago) link

How is he as a Labour man going to be a more pliable speaker than bercow, oh forget it - stupid question!

"The son of former Labour MP Doug Hoyle"

Whatā€™s wrong with his accent?!

gyac, Thursday, 31 October 2019 19:40 (four years ago) link

it's not reet! Probably an accent ruined for me by shit people I've worked with and Peter Kay.

calzino, Thursday, 31 October 2019 19:43 (four years ago) link

Oh God yeah, true, but not all Lancastrians...

Still the best choice accent wise of the runners. (Should have a Yorkshire or Scouse one though).

there is an ace interview with betty boothroyd talking about how her dad was a (scandalous in the 30's) stay at home parent while her mum went to work during the depression. Someone linked it on ILX years ago.

The last Speaker with a regional accent got absolutely ripped to shreds for having one - remember Gorbals Mick?

Michael Oliver of Penge Wins Ā£5 (Tom D.), Thursday, 31 October 2019 20:07 (four years ago) link

who was giving him shit about his accent?

calzino, Thursday, 31 October 2019 20:16 (four years ago) link

His Glaswegian accent led to his being nicknamed "Gorbals Mick" by Quentin Letts, after the working-class district of Glasgow, although he was actually born on the other side of the river from the Gorbals and represented a constituency a few miles away.[15]

Canā€™t believe the boarding school twat whoā€™s got a problem with Scottish people was at it again

gyac, Thursday, 31 October 2019 20:23 (four years ago) link

poor attention to biographical details there by mr Letts, not that it matters because he isn't a journalist - despite whatever he's put on his passport. the total cunt.

Donald Trump is trying to interfere in Britainā€™s election to get his friend Boris Johnson elected.

It was Trump who said in June the NHS is ā€œon the tableā€. And he knows if Labour wins US corporations wonā€™t get their hands on it.

Sincerely hope big Ed pickets the co-op

.@coopuk I called you weeks ago about the unacceptably cold conditions for staff at Askern co-op. It is still not sorted after 2 months despite staff complaints and I suspect it is in breach of HSE guidelines. Do I need to picket or are you going to do something? pic.twitter.com/I59Ge1luKP

Hey @BestForBritain Why is your ā€œToolā€ recommending voting for Corbyns Candidate in Ilford South when you know that I defied Corbyns Whip and voted against triggering Article 50 and I have always supported a Peopleā€™s Vote. Is it now your policy to undermine pro European MPs ?

Doncaster is such a fucking depressing and grey dead-zone of featureless flat brownfill and power stations and absolute nothingness, at least if you are feeling cold then at least that is a start on the path to actually fucking feeling something!

Don't turn over to Question Time, the audience is a Tory/Brexit Party lynch mob.

good Q tbh.

And yes, QT managed to find a 18-19 year old Boris stan that wants the marxist opposition crushed! he was too young to vote in the referendum but it ADAMANT that the vote must be carried through.
