This is the season finale...the darkest hour...ORDAH is lost, parliament is shut down...a season finale of the ages
Bercow's resign will be on the top 10 saddest deaths :( Such a dark season finali on Brexit....
Do note it ends on a cliffhanger!
The current Parliament can decide the new Speaker!
@@Wichnam Really? Maybe that's a good thing. PM would currently probably install someone who first ask governments approval before letting anyone speak.

The OOOOOOOORRRRRDDDDEEEEERRR will never be the same without Bercow...
That's all he was good for. Not an unbiased speaker at all.
@@sambland3903 are you sure
@@mareksicinski3726
Yep
Sam Bland he was great
I know there have been hundreds of other speakers, but Bercow is the only one since I've been politically aware. It's difficult to imagine anyone else doing it.
I'm guessing Bercow asked too much this season, so they had to write him out.
He's still got some screen time left in October after the mid-season break. His character has looked like he's on the way out before, telling people he would leave in 2018, and then again in July of 2019. Hopefully we get another plot twist as he's one of the better characters.
He is the Star of the Show.
He has all right to ask for more!
No, Johnson was planning to break a tradition and field a candidate in Bercow's constituency so he was probably going to be out next election anyway...sadly...fuck boris...
@@apples8754 Well, not if Labour and all other parties honor Bercow and support him. However, I'm not that of an expert of internal British politics, so I don't know, how realistic this scenario is.
@Bilal Khalid
I wholeheartedly agree @TLDR pls make this happen!
8:08 Bercow is reading the announcement with the monotonous tone like he's confessing under torture lmao
this is a man standing up to his duty dictated by law and custom as much as he hates to do it. the blond nitwit could take a lesson or two from that guy.
@@cptnknusper2246 Absolutely. It's really sad to see Bercow stepping down, but he already had plans to do it so. Doing this job really took a toll on his personal life.
@@cptnknusper2246 when parliament is acting against the will of the people exceptional acts must be done to put MPs in their place

What a season finale!!
Bercrow was my favourite character, sad they killed him off 😥
He is not killed off, he was put on a bus. Better that than the fate of other characters that were written off for sure, like Cameron and May. Also, he is not leaving in this mideason break, but at the end of this season, in the Halloween Special.
It's not the season finale yet. It's only just begun.
@@pshuckle7488 Next is season 2!!
@@elemy123456789 Season 1 was 2016-17. The Big Poll happens and May becomes PM. Season 2 was 2017-18. Article 50 is triggered and negotiations start. Season 3, 2018-19. The negotiations stall and confusion grows as no-deal becomes ever more apparent. Season 4 starts in October.

Can we get a “Best of Bercow Compilation”?
It already exists on TH-cam.

Yes please. But we need context, who was doing what, so that we can understand the reaction.
J Mas Yeah but some lack context and should be longer. Its crazy how there aren't many videos on TH-cam where the Tories tries to oust Bercow in 2015.

I'm waking up to some tldr :)
"I REQUIRE NOO RESPONSE FROM YOUU GET OUT MAN YOU WILL NOT BE MISSED" what an absolute legend. Savage.
I REQUIRE NO RESPONSE FROM YOU, GET OUT MAN! Hahah i love Bercow. He will be missed.
I love those scenes when he talks with someone from the parliament (both sides alike) like a rigorous school teacher knowing every name, every birthday, even the kids names sometimes, every rule, everything. Someone yesterday called him a walking encyclopaedia or something.
Hahaha.
I require no response from you sounds like the kind of thing they'd have said just before they got angry enough to challenge to dual. Is so full of icy upper class rage.
"I Require No Response From You!!!"
I used to think Bercow DGAF but I'm loving seeing the new 'I've handed in my notice' Bercow.
oh, its been there! trust me!
America: My political system is outdated and flawed
Britain: 'Old my bloody beer!
The way Bercow talks after 8:08 makes his opinion on all this absolutely clear. Soaking with disgust.
Shame he didn't care to comment about groups of MPs colluding with foreign powers to prevent the PM from simply carrying out the democratic will of the public. Seems he was perfectly happy to shake their hands though!
Seems he doesn't give a flying flamingo about democracy and the will of the people, who these MPs are supposedly representing!
@@NFawc oh shut up neil
@@markspringsvlogs8790 Ummm? After careful consideration, with the list of well made points and arguments you've made... No?
@@NFawc It's a representative democracy. Parliament isn't supposed to bend to every will of the public, it's supposed to act in the best interest of the public, even if that sometimes means to ignore the views of the constituents in the case that fulfilling those wishes might do more harm than good. That's the whole reason why parliaments exists and not everything is done by referendums: the idea that the public can't be trusted to make informed decisions concerning the present and the future all the time and therefore has to be represented by people whose job it is to familiarize themselves with difficult topics and make informed decisions. It's not undemocratic (just as referendums are not undemocratic), there's just a conflict between different flavours of democracy if direct and representative forms of decision making yield different results. It's ugly, but neither side can claim that the other doesn't to their job.
@@NFawc Too bad *all* political parties (except for Lord Buckethead and the Independent with vague names) are colluding with foreign powers these days.

Is it only me or was Bercow a little more confrontational than normal?
Like he specifically announced his resignation so he won't have to play nice anymore. (His porogation speech sounds a lot like most people's work ethic after they have been told they've been laid off)
Well it's not like he's going to be fired or anything. It was quite fun watching him lay into people and call out certain people in government.
It’s his last chance to do so really. The man deserves the chance to let the government know what he thinks of their actions, in a way. He’s been nice, given them a chance, and they fucked it. Bercow will always be my favourite speaker.
He is/was an elected MP, getting a final chance to verbally represent his constituents.
You need to make a tee shirt with Divisiiiiiiiiion! Clear the lobby!.
You can put me down for one.
Yes!
richard cutts Now the lobby has truly been cleared
With "unlock" at the back of the tee shirt, right down at the bottom.

God, I am going to miss John Bercow, and I don't even live in the UK!
T.shirt saying “I don’t give a flying Flamingo” would be fun
I feel bad for the next speaker, will never be able to live up to Bercow. What a legend!
Oh I don't know, Betty Boothroyd set the bar pretty high, and others before her were pretty good at the job too, so it's not unusual to find someone talented to do it, and do it well.
They'll necessarily plough their own furrow and be different, but there's no need to "live up to" what John Bercow has done and how he has done it.
He became to partisan at the end. I like Betty Boothroyd myself
@@tom27jr AWWWWDUH! ORDER! The Right Honorable Gentleman will resume his seat!
"I couldn't give a flying flamingo..."
Just for quotes like that Bercow will be missed.
He looks completely broken and exhausted...
After 10 years as Speaker, he deserved a proper handshake from every MP of every party. That only a handful of Conservatives remained shows an inability to rise above the politics of the moment that appalls me.
Indeed. Respect, common courtesy, decency, decorum, et al have all become quaint notions in the post tangerine terror/BoJo world... :( I'm seriously waiting for the fist fight to break out in the congress like we've seen in Tajikistan or where ever.
watajob the speaker flouted convention
Michael Manning Boothroyd was considered far more highly. It’s merely that nobody can remember anyone else. It was labour that kept him in so long and because of hung parliaments nobody could replace him with someone who wouldn’t politicise the office of speaker.
This would be an amazing mini-series for someone to make 10 years from now
"Mini"-series? Hell, I want it 7 seasons long like game of thrones
I’m fairly certain a young filmmaker is already working on it. This is bigger than us electing an orange 5-year old.
Provided that the real thing is over in 10 years...
@@Papercut625 *assuming the commenter is American
As a writer i really wouldn't know how to cram all of this into a mini series. Maybe two or three full length series, maybe more depending on how long this goes on for.
So we got to the midseason break in a very interesting cliffhanger and knowing that one of the main characters will leave the show at the end of this season, in the Halloween Special. Not the first, mind you (Cameron, May...), but the most beloved for sure.
This was technically the season finale. It just tricks you into thinking otherwise by ending with a cliffhanger. ;P
No one can do Bercow's job like Bercow. He will be missed.
I am going to miss Bercow. I think we wont see his like again. So sad, must remember to email him and thank him.

Gonna need a Flying Flamingo Shirt.
You NEED to make a video on how important John bercow has been and what legacy he has left behind. Also tell us who supports him today and threw out his tenure as speaker.
Bercow going savage :D
And staying so british polite and gentlemanlike while going savage towards his former party, this always amazes me about the British Parliament in these days.
I've read that the Tories, despite tradition, announced to let a candidate run vs Bercow in his constituency, I hope Labour and the other Opposition Parties now support Bercow openly, he deserves to stay in Parliament as one of the reasonable people in this parliament and for just being an awesome speaker!
Btw, do you plan to open channels to cover other important european countries or the EU Parliament?
For instance, Ursula von der Leyen, the new President of the EU Commission, is rumoured to appoint an Irish Commissar for the position of the Trade Commissar, making this highly political in regard to the Brexit Affair, since Ireland will be the EU-Nation most affected and maybe hurt by Brexit besides the UK.
By tradition, former speakers are given a seat in the house of lords. There is, of course, no guarantee that Johnson's government will make the required recommendation for that to happen. I hope they do, but if they don't I hope Labour will at their earliest opportunity.
I wish there's more European views on this matter
@@Soliloquy084 he would be great as a member of the house of lords.
More the pity, he promised not to sit as Speaker for more than ten years and his wife he would seek re-election.
UK really do have some weird customs.
Don't we just....
Yeah, England tends to love forcing other countries to do what they want against their consent.
They used to work much better when we could invade people
It didn’t really: they just oppressed the people within the British isles and across their empire and took all of their land.
For example, the people of my country were forced out of their homes so that English men could profit from our land. In addition, in Ireland they oppressed the Catholic majority of people for centuries and forced harsh penalties on them (they also could have prevented the famine had they cared about the island of Ireland)
At least Parliament managed to stop a no deal Brexit.
TLDR news having the first minute of the video being a store advertisements, I wouldnt have expected it based off the videos 6 months ago, they were so clean!
As we learned here in Canada, under Harper, once they've opened the can of worms that is prorogation, they won't shy away from using it any other time they aren't getting their way. It's essentially the parliamentary version of pulling a Cartman - "Screw you guys, I'm going home."
but how does prorogation work in other situations?
@@mareksicinski3726 Flippant answer? Poorly. More seriously, at its core prorogation just means suspending parliament for any reason. Whether that's good or bad depends on the person using it, and the reason. As has been noted here and elsewhere, prorogation is a normal part of the parliamentary process. It happens during changes of governments, it happens for the summer & Christmas breaks, and the removal of it as a part of the parliamentary process would break the system. The issue is that there's mechanisms that can be abused - Johnson tried (and may still try) using it to avoid debate on Brexit, which could be seen as contempt for the parliamentary system. Similarly, our former PM Harper, here in Canada, made extensive use of it to shut down debate on unpopular legislation, and here in Ontario specifically, our provincial parliament is currently suspended until after the upcoming federal election - some are saying it's because of how deeply unpopular the provincial government is, and because allowing them to continue on their current course would hurt the chances of their federal counterparts. As I said - how it's read and what it's used for depends entirely on the person using it and the reason for their using it.
You should send Bercow one of those hoodies. He does wear them and I think he’d LOVE it.
John Bercow. This parliaments last saving grace.
Bercow looks physically defeated and upset. That's hard-hitting stuff

Rembrandt Shadows No there isn’t it’s business as usual.
Also shout out to flying flamingos 😁 I'll shut up now.
Flying Flamingo shirts!
Some dude with a sword walks in & tells people the "Lords" demand their presence, then another guy grabs a big golden mace & walks out.
Is this the 21st century or the 16th century?
Yes.
Why don't you know what century it is? You seem confused by the concept of tradition. Do you just live in grey box, created last week?
I suspect there might be a culture where you are from too, and that you wouldn't have it any other way, obviously.
Actually at first I thought, the Queen planned to come in to tell them they can go on because of all the guards outside, or bring Bercow to the queen to talk with her ... TBDW too bad, didn't worked :)
@@AaronOkeanos The queen can't enter the House of Commons. she's only allowed to send her representative (the Lord Usher of the Black Rod, AKA Blackrod) to communicate with the House of Commons.
the reason for this is that the last time a British monarch entered the House of Commons it started off a civil war.
@@Calintares Ah thank you very much for the info. This explains a little bit I've seen yesterday.

Can you imagine how good The Thick Of It would be good with all the Brexit stuff. It would be amazing
The speaker sounded so sad (and drunk) in the end it's heartbreaking
@Joker Shutting the government down was the only option if democracy was to be respected. The Remainer plot to sabotage what the people voted for has gone too far, but Johnson outsmarted these traitors. Britain will leave the EU and retain her sovereignty.

Who was yelling "Do your job for which you're handsomely paid?"

“Do your job for which you’re handsomely paid”
Yes you are right, but the governments side of the benches get the same money probably even more being ministers and PMs. And besides the PM send them all to suspension, they wanted to do something for their money but are now forced to do something other than making laws and regulations. They wanted to discuss education and problems of people in North Ireland yesterday, but they being shut down now -forcefully- by an unusual prorogation.
@@AaronOkeanos The comment was pointing at the fact he paid to be impartial ...
@Bilal Khalid Not for this long, and later than this.
@Bilal Khalid As an American who doesn't have any real stake in the whole situation I can say quite clearly you aren't championing democracy. You are supporting executive fiat to ignore the legislative body because he doesn't like what they are doing. That's not really democratic. I know where your argument that you are will come from since you see this as a part of enforcing brexit which was voted for by the majority. But, the vote didn't set a time table or say that it would be a no deal brexit. Thus delaying and trying to get a deal aren't undemocratic (they could be if another vote is held, which shouldn't happen in my opinion as it would further complicate things as well as due to first past the post could have undemocratic results (say 20%hard brexit, 39% deal brexit and 41% remain causing a remain)). However, using executive power to get what one wants isn't democratic, it isn't wrong inherently, but it isn't democratic.
@Bilal Khalid I'm not saying they are. I'm not even reinturpreting it, I'm saying that those answers don't contain the myriad of option leaving entails such as a Switzerland or Norway like option. As such it's overly simple and thus doesn't explicitly give a timeline or a requirement to have or not have a deal and people can and should debate that, which is what parliament is for. I'm not saying Boris is a traitor or undemocratic, he isnt, what I am saying is that doing this particular move is undemocratic, that doesn't make it wrong but it does make your assertion that in this case you are defending democracy dodgy.
Speaking of Bercow - please tell me you'll be giving him some of those "10 YEARS OF ORRRDDDAAA" hoodies :)
Tldr, please!!
I couldn't give a flying flamingo 🤣
AWWWWDUH! ORDER! The Right Honorable Gentleman will resume his seat!
Now that Bercow's moving on, may we borrow him to lead the U.S. Congress for awhile? He's desperately needed.
@Xipo86 1term president lmao 😂😂😂
@Xipo86 orange is the new black. Make sure he doesnt sign an EO and take your guns.
@Xipo86 Why would he want to? You can have a bigger personal impact at the local, county, and state level. I know from personal experience. Senators and senate candidates may emulate your efforts or take your advice. I was astounded when I had 15 minutes with the CoS Senate Foreign Affairs Committee. Really, President is over rated.
Could you please explain the whole "Black Rod" thing and all the pomp and circumstance that we just witnessed?
And Bercow announced his resignation? When did that happen?! Video, please?
Yes! And, like, why did he resign? Because of his insatisfaction with the long prorogation?
@@cz2301 The Tories are running an opposition candidate against the Speaker (breaking tradition), so he outright resigned so if he is kicked out of office Parliament can appoint his successor, not Johnson and the Tories
Because the fancy upper class like that sort of nonsense, the pomp and circumstance is just tradition from hundreds of years back, probaly originally made to remind people, parliament and the crown of their places.
As for the speakers resignation it happened earlier in the day and he is planning on leaving while tge government has less control over who can replace him and before any inexperienced MPs can be tricked or forced into voting for a speaker that will be a government yes person. To be fair he has already stayed longer than he had planned and with the extension and the queens speech it is probaly the only moment he can leave.
So it means that, for the time being, Parliament is dismissed and the Executive will find their own way to Brexit? It equates to a coup, then? Thanks for the explanations about Bercow, btw!
@@cz2301 basically yeah, it's a coup. That and the PM has already openly stated in front of police that he won't follow the law and ask for an extension, so at this point the UK has no democracy.

Do a video looking at what would happen if Johnson defied parliament and does not ask for an extension
then he will be arrested / a long legal battle will ensue. (it would be chaos since the pm is put into the office by their party/parties forming the majority of the government, and bj doesn't posses the majority what should have happened was an election however the parliamentarians did not allow that. so right now they are in relatively uncharted waters)
Question: Can a PM in trials or a PM in custody be a PM? Are there any rules to such situations? EDIT: And can a PM be in custody? What are the rules on that? Maybe even in extreme cases. They are not above the law are they?
Sidenote: It's actually intresting how this will turn out now in terms of "How does a democracy work". Seperation of power in a democracy has a 3rd component the judiciary. It's somewhat slow to act and takes a lot of time and cannot begin anything on it's own, but if it says something and makes a decision, it's almost impossible to do something against it from both other sides executive and legislative are bound to their decisions at least when it's on the table of the highest instance.
as an American, I am a little confused... how does one arrest a Prime Minister?
@@matthewpascoe7552
Authority comes from the queen not the PM
@@matthewpascoe7552 In the US, a sitting president can't be charged with any crimes while he is in office (although there is some debate around this). To convict Trump (as an example) of a crime he would have to be either impeached first and then charged or leave office at the end of his term and charged. Being President doesn't make you immune from the law, just temporarily immune. That's why president Ford pardoned Nixon after watergate (he could still have been charged with crimes unless he had been pardoned).
In the UK, the prime minister is not technically the head of state. The Queen is. Only the Queen is immune from criminal and civil prosecution The courts act in her name. As such, there is not much stopping the police from arresting any MP for comitting a crime. Even if there was, an MP can still be impeached which could end up in the removal of his parliamentary protections (such as they are) and he can then face criminal or civil prosecution.
If it was ANY other PM, I would be here writing an essay about how in international politics you somnetimes can't be honest with your own parliament, when it's broadcast live for the world to see and how Johnson is right to withhold his plans for the negotiations with the EU, because otherwise the EU would know of his plans in advance which might weaken his position.
HOWEVER, this is BoJo we're talking about. This guy wouldn't know a plan from the drawing of a dickbutt when shown side-by-side. And if you don't believe me in that - which you're perfectly welcome to do - I would kindly draw your attention to all those who defected or were thrown out. If the PM really had a good plan, that he just couldn't share for diplomatic reasons, he wouldn't be abandoned by everyone coming near him. On the contrary, we would have ministers and party leaders emploring the public to "please trust the PM", maybe they would even use the "usual channels" (i.e. backroom talks) to inform the opposition of the plan without the public knowing. But the fact that not only this isn't happening, but in fact quite the opposite - ministers left, right and center argue against their own PM and abandon ship - is as clear a sign as possible that the current PM has no clue whatsoever on how to get a different deal from the EU.
[Adding to this is, ofcourse, the fact that the EU holds her ground firmly. From day one they said "we have a deal. take it or leave it." and never waivered. But what other nations think has rarely been a factor in UK politics, so that's just a sidenote...]
They can't give the UK what would threaten the single market or the customs union. Never, ever. And you can't have either or both of them without regulations from the EU level because the single market and customs union is a EU-wide thing and without EU wide regulations loopholes begin to appear. They are willing to let UK cut itself off and already prepare for that, but they will never agree on market or customs without EU wide rules. And they try to avoid that others have to pay the price for decisions (North Ireland) but not on the price of the single market which is holding the hole thing together.
@@AaronOkeanos The only real exception is Switzerland, which has negotiated many treaties with the EU member states individually over the past 40 years. However, Switzerland has come under pressure to set aside these agreements as the EU, politically and economically, finds these agreements at odds with the single market, etc.
We're in the endgame now.
It ended long time ago. Corrupted politicians in parliament who are in pockets of EU bureaucrats and big corporations are still trying to insists to remain. Referendum was done. People has spoken. All of the PM's who insists staying in EU should be executed by the queen.

It's you who is advocating for civil war for sake of being under fascistic superstate called as EU.
@@Tespri By having democratically elected MPs executed by a monarch for going against a policy, you would destroy democracy as we know it in Britain. A good portion of Britain would not stand for that, which is the civil war I was referring to.
The referendum was never binding - people knew that from the beginning. Furthermore, the "leave" option included both leaving with a deal and leaving without one, and people who wanted to leave with one by no means want to leave without, and possibly even want to stay if the options are no deal or staying - and since "leave" only barely won, the largest of the three groups is for remaining.
And lastly, the have been TWO general elections since the referendum and neither parliament has been able to get a majority for any of the three options, so to state or even imply leaving without a deal is the will of the common people is either ignorant or dishonest to the nth degree.
The UK is not strictly a democracy, but it is for all intentes and purposes a representational one, and is the better for it.
And if you truely think the EU is facistic, you are lost. Nothing I say can or will convince you, since your delusion already runs so deep. Not that I am surprised, considering you advocated for executing democratically elected representatives for the crime of holding to their beliefs and principles.
Just ponder this: Ever matter the EU put into law, the UK had the power to veto. NOTHING the EU did that concerned the UK was done without its consent. Truely, the whip lashes hard.

Elected MPs can't override the referendum made by the people. You're basically treating MP elections as same as referendum, which it was not. Lot of those MP's even gave promise to honor the brexit and ended up breaking it.
"executed by a monarch for going against a policy, you would destroy democracy as we know it in Britain. "
No it wouldn't. It would free the country from traitors. MP's are suppose to abide by the will of the people and secure the country. All of those MP's you are worshiping literally did the opposite. They ignored referendum and basically made it impossible to leave EU. AKA THEY SOLD THEIR COUNTRY. They are treasonous by the very definition. Not only that but their constant hindrance of the negotiation process ensured that the people of UK would suffer.
"A good portion of Britain would not stand for that, which is the civil war I was referring to."
Actually according to polls they would. Most people don't want to be part of your silly project of soviet 2.0.
"The referendum was never binding"
It was and every MP stand and vowed to honor it.
"And lastly, the have been TWO general elections since the referendum and neither parliament has been able to get a majority for any of the three options, so to state or even imply leaving without a deal is the will of the common people is either ignorant or dishonest to the nth degree."
Again, constant sabotage from the MP's not to mention that Theresa was remainer. What do you expect will happen when remainer is let to decide over the issue? Clean solution?
"The UK is not strictly a democracy, but it is for all intentes and purposes a representational one, and is the better for it."
If it's it's interest to represent the people, then they should honor the referendum and leave the EU ON SPOT.
"and if you truely think the EU is facistic, you are lost."
Only one lost is you, for not understanding what fascism is and how EU functions.
"Nothing I say can or will convince you, since your delusion already runs so deep. "
IS it though? I'm talking with ideologue who thinks that HIGHLY centralized totalitarian regime that is suppressing freedom's of the people who live under their regime is a heaven.
EU fits to the bill of fascism perfectly.
"Ever matter the EU put into law, the UK had the power to veto. NOTHING the EU did that concerned the UK was done without its consent."
UK doesn't have dictatorial power in EU. Nor having one would even make it a good thing.
You clearly fail to even understand how EU works. UK can't just veto everything it wants, it can try. However the influence and power in EU is decided purely by population of the country.
And again... Your arguments can be used for "how great and good soviets were". I doubt you even know how their system worked.
"I require no response from you" needs to be a shirt :D
I feel bad for Bercow. Brexit seems like it beat him just as much as everyone else.
@@NeightrixPrime how is he a traitor???
@@NeightrixPrime flag
Bercow’s resignation had me crying from a sedentary position
here, you can share my tissues
God bless John Bercow! He will be missed (on both sides of the Atlantic).
So glad you're back to your original format for videos!
I couldn't give a flying flamingo!
Flying flamingo, NEED A SHIRT with the speaker and a speech bubble!
I hate when mid-season finale ends on a cliffhanger.
... especially when the break is far too long ...
To think that a man with such strong command of english; well-spoken with many colourful words, will mostly be remembered for one word - ORRRDAAA!!! Thanks for the memories John Bercow and for making watching Brexit tolerable.
Your audio is a little quiet, but helpful thanks.
2:47
TLDR: "So while it's perfectly legal ..."
UK Supreme Court: Hold my Château Thames Embankment
So quiet. Why is this audio so damn quiet? On speaker I can BARELY HEAR IT!!!
Bercow is awesome.
You are so right ,I like him very much too 👍
Greetings from the Netherlands
@@andrewscotttt surely you jest
@@Bolsonaro_em_Haia The punishment yes, but the sentiment no.
@@andrewscotttt that makes no sense whatsoever, you know.
Dude's one of the greatest of all time
Since the Parliamentary house has been prorogued. Can the house of lords be prorogued simultaneously?
I think they do the summoning.
Could you please explain the whole "Black Rod" thing and all the pomp and circumstance that we just witnessed?
that would take a good long video really. I am sure there a great books written about it.
It goes back to Charles I when the monarch entered the chamber and arrested MPs , most notably Cromwell. Long story short, the tradition since then is for the monarch to not enter the House of Commons and send a Black Rod. Black Rod "tries" to enter the chamber and is "blocked" by shutting the door who then knocks on the door and then requires the MPs to go the House of Lords. It's a bit of pomp and show but rooted in history and tradition.
@@sharad415 The behaviour of certian individuals reminds me of Roundheads btw . . . . .
Audio was unusually quiet in this one
I'd like to see you do a video on how the EU works because it seems many don't know about it that well
I'm pretty sure these guys did one but that was ages ago, at the beginning of this whole mess known as brexit
What an amazing finale!! I particularly enjoyed the part where good old Borris did an oopsie
After listening to Bercow's remarks, how many f**ks are required to make a single Flamingo?
A great many.
There are extra fucks needed to make a flamingo fly, though. I don't think the commission for weights and measurements have ironed out any unified standard as of yet. But it's a shit ton of fucks.
The next speaker should be Michael Buffer. Who wouldn't want him to be saying: "LET'S GET READY TO OOOORRRRRDDDAAAAAHHHHH".
It would be kind of appropriate since it looks like Parliament is ready to start a wrestling match.
Bercow is an absolute legend 🙏🏻😂
Brexit turned out to be hilarious comedy show now 😂😂😂😂
Will miss Bercow - personally I liked him -- but like or dislike him -no one can argue against him creating some lovely discussions about parlimentary process . He has left his mark . It's just a shame he could not have stayed in the job til brexit end.....
But at least the conservatives won't be able to rubberstamp a sycophant with them not having a majority.. good timing on Bercows part.
aye, and he held promises to his wife and constituents as well.
Bercow’s “OOOOOOOORRRRRRRRDAAAAAAAAAAAA! OOORRRRRRDAAAA!” was different from usual... it was... sadder.
Farewell democracy we will miss you. All hail supreme leader bojo!
Bercow truly outdid himself this time. What a legend!
I'll miss Bercow. I just LOVE him. He doesn't put up with crap and is a gentleman. I wish they were all more like him. If I was in the UK I'd be slightly concerned right now. What is Boris going to do? Just crash out, no matter the cost? People with money tend to make more money out of chaos. While poor people just get poorer, and die. Anyone who needs meds, please stock up!
i know the name of this episode, "Just following Ordas"
The more TLDR explains, the bigger laughing stock the UK becomes.
Czar Zenana after 3 or so years, we’re cool with being a laughing stock at this point
Remember a crazy baffoon is a president of US you have nothing to worry about 😁
They'll get used to it, us here in the US got used to it. Make it a shtick.
Trump, Bolsonaro... there are worse cases than yours...
@@The3p3hr
They started 'TLDR News US' for that.
Can we just talk about Bercow's fabulous tie for a minute? That shit is fancy af
This to me always shows with Bercow: while people always say 'clothing makes the man' it's really not what you wear but how you wear it ;-)
@@DarkHarlequin *pictures him wearing the tie around his head Rambo-style and taking over parliament*
Well, a girl can dream :')
Time to find the nearby tennis court just for the "Tennis Court Oath" then.
Because the French revolution went so well... But of course a leftist would support it.
Let us start a gofundme to buy a flamingo for Bercow.
Let us give him a flying flamingo.
Still a better ending than GoT.
Can you please add a flying flamingo to an "ordaaaa" design? Or add a flying flamingo design on its own? That must be one of his most memorable lines and I would love to buy that
