Speaker John Bercow's first Prime Minister's Questions

[MrGurlyboy]

At first I wanted Ann Widdecombe to get the speaker job because she would have been hilarious but then John Bercow is rather entertaining and I quite like him being there now.

Dear YOUTUBE

YouTube is excellent but I must ask you to withdraw a major feature – the comments section. The people who make comments here (as you can see) are stale, left wing sewer rats who like nothing more than to bash Cameron’s government without being able to back up their remarks with intelligent logic. Most of the comments here are written by people who are almost as bad as the clapping seals on BBC Question Time. I hope you will give my request serious consideration. Many thanks.

[petehall1985]

@GoldenLegends100 The comments are the views of people who have an interest in politics. You have actually come across like an arrogant toff implying everybody else and there views are beneath you and your politics. After the year that Cameron has had it is expected that the left wing will enjoy throwing a few punches. During the iraq war the liberals had a great time on youtube and so on. Also clapping on question time is respectful. If you want to debate then show others respect.

[jimmyboy141414]

@GoldenLegends100 very well said mate :)

[TheLeoimpus]

michael martin was a gay fag who couldnt control the house

[badgerpotus]

Say what you want about Bercow's political affiliation and personality, but I must say, he is doing a far better job fulfilling his procedural job as Speaker of the House of Commons than Michael Martin.

[Niflheim13]

Why all the hate?

[EmperorOfTrolls]

ORDER!

[StarWarsmercguardian]

lol what an idiot! the public love it when politicians show some human emotion

[scaredmonkey]

THE PUBLIC FUCKING LOVE'S IT

[MrPontiusPilate]

Bercow was right.

[swcrowe]

Bercow is bollocks as a speaker.

[burghill1979]

i like the noise you bafoon

[mgrh001]

I LOVE BERCOW

[histre101]

Bercow defeated Farage

[Libertarianism4UK]

Bercow is a terrible speaker.

[mulefa]

Bercow is a disgrace in politics, vote for Farage and be done with him.

[TheZanipolo]

Fucking Labour stooge, moron and self-satifisfied tool, he stole taxpayers' cash to refurbish his grace-n-favour flat

VOTE FARAGE

[JuanMacready]

John Bercow is a piece of shit. It would be really great if Nigel Farage took his seat.

[histre101]

Seems to direct the traffic quite well in parliament.

[tropicalease]

Hideous little pervert.....!!!.....smug...gre­edy.....has all the qualities that are so dispicable in the human condition....and yet...this....git...pest....to­e rag.....ends up in one of the countries highest places......WHO THE FUCK IS THIS.....!!!!!!

[PeterFirthFan]

His whore wife is a fucking ugly skank as well.

[PeterFirthFan]

John Bercow is a piece of shit.

[MyMidoman]

i agree with you

[PeterFirthFan]

Hopefully either Dave Cameron will force him out after the next election, or he will lose his seat to Nigel Farage.

[RoyBolinggoing]

ffs - I don't want to see an advert first

[omsct]

"The public doesn't like it."

Did he think about that when he was abusing the expense system? That he can be speaker, and that the PM can be some unelected election - referendum ducker sums up how a big a joke Parliament has become. Looks just like the last paragraph in 'Animal Farm'.

[krayzeeryan]

I hope that twat gets unseated by Farage.

slimey git.

[asunsetinmyveins]

Major props to the British!! I love this debate style and I wish that America would consider adopting a form of PMQs. I think it would be a perfect way for people to ask questions and get some real answers.

[catalinaguerrero]

do the british people get real answers from the PMQ?

[asunsetinmyveins]

Well I don't live in Britain, you'd have to ask them. America certainly doesn't get answers the way things are now, so it couldn't hurt to try.

[wilkatron]

No, would be the straight answer to that question. the questions put to the PM are previously vetted so he knows whats coming so he can plan an answer. do you know of any politician who actually answers a question? check out "Jeremy Paxman vs Michael Howard" for example.

[maccagrabme]

Bunch of actors. Arguing about the same old shite and nothing ever changes for the benefit of the country.

[johnnyme7]

It's good he got rid of the ridiculous old outfit and wig.

[cook119]

What's ridiculous about it they've worn that for hundreds of years. But I suppose in this modern world we should get rid of traditional bullshit like democracy, and bring in more gimmicks like look at how fucking modern and new we are I'm waring a crap tie. John Bercow appitimises modern british politics its all gimmicks and no substance.

[trenchardc]

"There's simply too much noise. The public doesn't like it ,and neither do I."

Quality!

[cook119]

As if he speaks for the public I like the noise it shows that people care about what's going on in there.

[FizziksJunkie]

this is from america:

brown is screwed. get another obama!

[Wengl3]

You guys are lucky. You had a perfect alternative to the Republicans at the right time. Brown and Labour are the UK equivalent party to Obama and the Democrats. Next election (which will be mid-2010 if Brown and Labour wait as long as they can), Conservatives and Cameron will (unfortunately) win. They're our equivilent to the Republicans.

=[.

Actually, Gordon Brown's got the right policies to get us through the recession. Just not the leadership of his party. =[.

[FizziksJunkie]

yeah i'll be honest im not sure we deserved a break but we're all certainly glad to be rid of bush. although i doubt im alone in saying that, i wish you luck with whatever comes out of this sticky economic mess though.

[Wengl3]

As long as the conservatives don't come to power while we're in the mess. Labour and Brown are on the way out... =[

[Ohyewildthong]

Come back Martain, all is forgiven. How does Bercow expect to be respected when he doesn't even respect his own position or parliment itself. Sir George Young should have been speaker!!!!

[Shabaz121]

He's going to dumb down the Commons that's for sure.

Oh, and Brown IS FINISHED!!

[ribenababy2008]

not a good start the man is a theif he was one of the mps that ripped of the public in his exspenses  for £7k. yet he is rewarded with a £144k a year job a free apartment a gureented pension even if he is only in the job for a year. and a driver to pick him up and take him home every day. ITS PATHETIC REWARDED FOR BEING A THEIF!!

[LoneDragoon90]

I am certainly not standing up for their actions, so it may be hard to see where I'm coming from.

With lax rules like that a good number of the country wouldn't turn that down.

And anyway, he commands for more ordered proceedings in the house unlike that idiot Martin. Good start I say. I hope he keeps like that.

[ribenababy2008]

thats true lot of dishonest ppl in the country. but more honest.

We elect these wankers because they are supposed to be above all that and do things properly. and set an example and not use the public purse as there own personal piggybank. in normal life if you or me got gaught with our fingers in the till. for the amounts these wankers have stolen. we would be in front of a judge. where's the justice. he has to be etter than martin. but still a joke in my opion

[Formula1MotorRacing]

Yes. A good start for Speaker Bercow. Miles better than Speaker Martin already.

[connorp241387]

@Formula1MotorRacing Well said

[MarkWilliams212]

Hes actually pretty good. Stepping in when needed. The former Speaker would wait forever to intervene.
