Sir Lindsay Hoyle is elected new Speaker of the House of Commons replacing John Bercow

- SIR Lindsay Hoyle has been elected the new House of Commons Speaker by MPs to replace John Bercow.
The favourite beat Chris Bryant by 112 votes in the fourth and final round.
In the final round of votes, Sir Lindsay, formerly a deputy to Mr Bercow, got 325 while fellow Labour MP Chris Bryant received 213.
Sir Lindsay will replace Mr Bercow, who left the role after a decade which has been viewed as a time of reform but also controversy.
Speakers must be politically impartial, meaning Sir Lindsay will be required to resign from the Labour Party in order to carry out his duties.
Speaking after the result, Sir Lindsay, 62, distanced himself from his showboat predecessor.
Sir Lindsay, who is widely popular and respected by colleagues, said: "I will be neutral. I will be transparent.
"This House will change but it will change for the better."
He also paid tribute to his daughter Natalie Lewis-Hoyle, 28, who died in 2017 and whom he said his family misses a great deal.
Sir Lindsay was reluctantly dragged to his chair as part of a tradition dating back to the days when speakers could be sentenced to death if they displeased the monarch.

Lovely tribute to his daughter. Being a father who has lost a child myself it was very touching and moving on a personal level too. May she rest in peace.
Shari much respect to you, and sincere condolences sir. 😞🙏
@@eastwestcoastkid thank you very much 👍🏾
@@sh-mufc may your child rest peacefully as well
@@FabianPyka that's very kind of you. Appreciated
Sorry for your loss :-(
“I’m now gonna call - the first time - THE PRIME MINISTER!” it’s so heartwarming how happy he is ☺️
If that woman had dragged him any more abruptly, he would have fallen over 😂
Well he should have expected it. It is a tradition to drag the newly selected speaker of the house to his seat and she was keen to keep up that tradition haha
It’s tradition. It reflects how undesirable the position was in the past.
@@exiletsj2570 Thank you
😁😁😁😁
Caroline Flint ... MP Don Valley originally
Already seems like a likeable person and neutral, exactly what a speaker should be
Indeed!
He can't be any worse than Bercow.
"no clapping" - finally some orrrddddaaaarrrr
He's been deputy speaker for 9 years, it's not that new to him, I don't think it's to much of a big deal.
OOOORRRRDDDDDAAARRRRRR
Laura Walker this why he was elected. They already trust him
Is it very common for an experienced deputy speaker to be elected as speaker? Betty Boothroyd was also the deputy before being elected.
I will forever miss watching him say “Order” and “Unlock” live. Here’s to a new decade, Mr Hoyle 👍
Oisin Jadran Sir*
Nobody:
Mp’s: yeeeeeaaaaahhhhh
Yes XD
Everybody: nobody says/does nothing joke
Individual minded people: Cba with it
Hear not yeah
They’re saying here
NO CLAPPING
So much respect for my local MP Sir Lindsay Hoyle, glad to see he is finally getting the recognition he deserves in the house
Does this mean that you won’t have a general election in your area because he reverts to being an independent MP and his seat is no longer contested?
JasonTheGreat18 He remains an MP I believe
TrXl he remains an MP but he is no longer a part of the Labour Party.
As the speaker he has to be an independent MP.
But it is the usual convention that all of the other parties do not field a candidate in the constituency.
So perhaps they will have an election with only Sir Lindsay on the ballot?
Seems like a huge waste of time and money.
So my question was asking if they actually will hold an election in that constituency
@@JasonTheGreat18 Out of respect for the role of speaker, generally speaking the other major party withdraws from running for his constituency, some more minor parties don't though: but it's a tradition which is always followed by Labour and the Conservatives.
Edit: So yes, they will. But it's not pointless because they can still vote otherwise.
Pottasium Dichromate ah ok thanks for the clarification there :)
He sounds like a teacher
he was a head teacher I believe
@@actyourage04 Finally, an actual head teacher to head the classroom of children!
He used to be from 1981 to 1984 thats about 6 years i reckon
@@aleksanderblinn4492 3
At last somebody with life experience
I’m American and even I know to respect that man. I think he’ll be unbiased & good for the UK &!Parliament. Best wishes.
You understand him?
Laura Walker Why wouldn’t I? He speaks English in a clear manner.
Hope so
@@bigdraco2994 Much prefer your vision
Rev. PimpDaddy you’re embarrassing all of us Americans. Then again, can’t expect much from “Reverend PimpDaddy”
The utter jubilation of the whole house when he does all his “firsts” is palpable. Just shows how widely respected he is.
if there was jubilation from the whole house, how did the other bloke get 213 votes?
I'd say it mostly happened after he was formally elected. A sort of "I didn't vote for you but I respect you" thing.
@@lampcrow5453 i think those who voted for him clapped for him making a big noise, as they would, being the majority and all.
Def. Not the whole house was present. Hopefully he’ll do a proper job though.
He is a man with passion for what he does..my favorite Scene..just grab that man.....
What a gentleman. He's one of the best speakers we've ever had.
Whom ?
@@zacksmith5963 John Bercow
@@micahbell4774 definitely not Bercow
Hoyle is dreadful.
The House of Commons Speaker-ship is like Doctor Who tbh
They're not chosen they're actually regenerated
Huh?
This American doesn't understand this advanced form of democracy. So we will export our own to your shores... prepare to be democratized.
OMG
Both characters try to keep order in the world 👌
To be honest I miss Bercow already, he was a kind and a deep soul.I admit i've grown rather fond of that 'ol chap throughout the years. Let this be my farewell to him. Good luck to Sir Lindsay Hoyle tho.
At least he can keep an eye on his wife now.
Well said
We will look back, Bercow is a character, and in all likelehood brought a lot of people to watch the goings on in Parlaiment, people that would not otherwise have been interested. Hoyle: grit, integrity, compassion and from The North. He will more than fill the house with his honesty. His speeches might need subtitles for southerners, but I am sure that can be provided. Well done that man
I think after the character of Bercow, who went imo from fairly entertaining to liking the sound of his own voice, having someone like Hoyle (presuming he keeps his style) would be a nice change.
@@MrDioXIII bercow is a complicated man, in a complicated time.
Getting dragged like a passive piece of meat and then out pops that northern accent.
He is, indeed, a worthy replacement.
Can you imagine listening to him for hours on end? he reminds me of the speaker we had before that Lady speaker, puts you right to sleep.
@@ancaira3595 The MP's already sleep in commons so i don't think thats a problem.
Chrissy The Conqueror Seems like a solid dude!
I liked him as deputy speaker. Bercow was great as a strong, eloquent, forceful speaker, but Lyndsey Hoyle shows similar qualities but also with distinct humility, compassion and fairness.
Good that we've got a level head to steady the ship during coronavirus and Brexit.
Congratulations Speaker Sir Lindsay Hoyle. All the best to you sir :-) . My sincere condolences to the family for the passing of your daughter Natalie. May she rest in peace :-(
Lovely words.
Thank you. This man is very strong. I don't know what I would do if I lost a child. Same goes for you I'm sure.
Absolutely spot on.
I love how they "force" him to the chair .. great part of the UK parliament
He seems like a real standup guy with integrity, if he was labour leader I’d vote for that party
@To Hell With Democracy funny how labour isnt elected and uk is already destroyed
Lol
A man that has always conducted himself not only the right way, but the proper way. A true gentleman and, a man who will only make our democracy all the better. My best wishes and great congratulations.
Oh stfu
ORDAAAAAAEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH........... rip
nope...it's 'UDDDEEERR!'
@@Drobium77 not anymore
Found the 'No clapping' tradition for impartiality :
...."But the committee backed the applause ban in a 1998 report: "While we agree that spontaneous clapping at the end of a speech could in no way be interpreted as disturbance of the speaker, there is a danger that such a practice might be open to abuse and could lead in certain circumstances to orchestration of what would amount to standing ovations with the success or failure of a speech being judged not by its content but by the relative length of the ovation at the end.
"This might not disrupt an individual speech, but would disrupt the tenor of the debate, as indeed would slow handclapping."
I always hoped he’d become Speaker. Cheers from the US
Same man, cheers from a British-American ;)
04:50 the mace isn't on the table. It may be that the first call is 'illegal' :D
We live in wonderfully weird country. 😂🤣
Let’s just hope he knows how to say: Oooooooooorrrrrrdddddeeeeeeeeeer to all the flying flamingos.
Hopefully an unbiased Speaker unlike the other one
Well done. Long overdue. Sir Lindsay will make a great speaker
congralutions Mr. Hoyle. God bless you!
God doesn’t exist. God is a fairytale
@@MrOzzy1631 That's your opinion. My Gods would differ. Skal
One of the biggest mistake they've made in the HOC was electing this man as speaker.
As long as he remembers to be neutral 👍
Bercow didn't favour the government, he was neutral.
He is pro brexit
@@lauralishes1 thats why they made a deal he could not refuse i reckon
@@aleksanderblinn4492 Sir Hoyle never made his stance on Brexit known. Don't lie out your arse.
@@lastx4438 just an assumption i put out there on the internet. I dont give a flying flamingo my arse
I don’t believe there was anyone more deserving, more capable or more honorable to choose for this position.
Lets hope that he is not a traitor to democracy like his predecessor
I hope the new speaker says "Be a good boy young man! Be a good boy" at least One time 😂
Congrats!! Wishing the new speaker god speed and great health throughout his term.
No one can replace the great John 'Oooh-daaa' Bercow.
And replaced by Sir Lindsay 'Ordeeeur' Hoyle
John Bercow was not great. And now he is little more than the jester for the European Union. He was a sad, corrupt child that abused his position as much as he could.
A plank of wood would be an improvement on Bercow. He abused his position and was not neutral at all. A disgrace to his position.
@rob 998 He strongly tried to push the House into the direction of Remain/Soft Brexit
Why is a child in there asleep on the front bench of the labour party??
Never ever will the HOC hear Beethoven's Ode to Joy again ...
Underrated comment XD
😂😂
That's the hope!
Gonna miss that ORDERRRRRRRR!
Good for him! I always liked Sir Lindsay Hoyle! John Bercow will be some tough shoes to fill though. I hope Hoyle has the personality and the humor of Bercow!
Hopefully he will do a great job, I still think the customs and antics are not much better than a primary school sometimes!
Harriet Ruth Harman would've been an absolutely awful speaker. Congratulations Lindsay Hoyle - Do the UK proud.
Nice to finally see some smiles from all in the house.
I have had some respect for Harriet Harman in the past for her various roles and actions. I think the moment she lost me with the speakership election was when she made it all about identity politics and how she should be elected because she is a woman. When will these people learn..........it's not about your identity, your gender, your skin colour or any other factor over which you had no choice at birth. It's about character, ability and record of action. As soon as she played the 'I am a woman so elect me card' I knew from the expressions on members' faces that she had lost the race. So so sad...........when will they learn. Equality means equality........not special privilege based on your identity
Exactly! They have forgotten about the words of Martin Luther King jr.
Saigon Brit absolutely agree, she nailed the beginning of her speech, talking about how she has relevant experience of being in ministerial and shadow ministerial positions as well as a back bencher.
She started off with ‘judge me on merit’ but then suddenly pulled out the gender card.
@@JasonTheGreat18 Absolutely. I think she simply doesn't get it. The era of identity politics is coming to a halting close. People are sick to death of it. Even Obama has recently condemned it and comedians are now openly ridiculing PC/identity politics/outrage culture for what it is. If only Harriet had stuck to merit..........'judge me on the content of my character'. As soon as she pulled the 'I'm a woman' nonsense she probably lost 200 votes in this secret ballot.
Plus, Lindsay is highly sexy.
I thought Harriet quit parliament ages ago?
Gotta like when the opposition remains silent when they know they've been beat. Kudos to the Parliament!
well done |Mr Hoyle heres hoping you bring a great change to the house :)
Bit of Northern sense
Yep, Lancashire
His accent is so facking annoying though.
Lancashayar
@@roblinnbailey2359 What?! I love it!
He's a politician they have no sense
I like him, he'll be a good speaker.
Congratulations Mr. Speaker
Richly deserved I’m sure he will be fantastic in the role and do his late daughter proud.
13mins 51 when the mp is talking and hes not even listening to her, talking away to someone over his shoulder lol
He's been deputy speaker for 9 years, it's not that new to him, I don't think it's to much of a big deal.
She's only some third party putz. What she says is not important.
No one listens to Swinson she’s an ego maniac
To be fair, not a slight against Swinson, it happens all the time. You will often see someone talking to the occupant of the chair when debates, questions or anything else is going on.
New speaker, new ORDAAAAAH!
Congratulate, Sir Lindsay!
no clapping LOL! he's gonna do great!
Drain the swamp and get rid of the lot.
We do every year when parliament is dissolved, that's what the general election is for..
@@brennnnnnnnnnan We get the same shower every year , because what alternatives do we have? They are all self serving rats, Brexit as proved this.
At 08:55 did Jeremy Corbyn actually say "comrades" when describing his fellow party members???? Oh crap was that a Freudian slip???
Probably a joke
I reckon Sir Hoyle has one of the best demeanors/personalities of recent speakers… he’s always gracious but can crack the whip like Betty Boothroyd. 😉
Good job to Bercow and congratulations to Hoyle! They are both defenders of democracy although some bias was involved. If you still do not like Bercow or Hoyle I respect your opinion.
The junior minister behind the new speaker was so overwhelmed he collapsed into his fathers’ arms.
Orrrrrrrrrrrrrddddddddddddeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrr. We gonna miss him definitely!
Absolutely
Sounds like a Male version of hayley off corrie🤣🤣🤣
xD It is
A non-biased man, with Northern values ... Lancashire people are proud, friendly.
he was my MP for a while. Excellent choice. Top man.
Do it for the Hoyles
Could someone make the speaker say "You can't beat a bit of bully". Defo sounds like Jim Bowen
Congrats Sir Lindsay!
lovely, smashing, super

@@grimTales1 it was usually 2 blokes living in an inner city tower block who won a speedboat between them!
With all due respect to the new speaker and all speakers in the world, I don’t think any parliament speaker on Planet Earth would EVER match Bercow in any way, shape or form. To me, Bercow was born to only do this job.
Best man for the job. I can’t vote for this Labour Government in the General Election even though I have always voted for them in the past. I will be voting for the Brexit Party in the General Election. However, Lyndsey Hoyle is the Chorley MP and the man I vote for in the local elections. He is fantastic, honest, helpful and loyal to the people no matter who they support. Congratulations to a proper champion of our country. Unfortunately this Labour Government is not fit for purpose.
Why not voting Labour?
Say what you will but the orduhhh guy had the perfect voice for that job. That gravely, authoritative bellow like you see in almost every movie.
Grrraaaooowwl
I'm listening to all the accents and I'm like... "Just when you thought, as a Yank, you'd heard all the accents of the U.K., you hear new ones and strange ones."
‘No clapping’
brilliant
When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan. Proverbs 29:2
Amen.
They like dragged him there like a child who didn’t want to brush his teeth what was that all about?
the speaker was a dangerous role in medieval times as the king went chop when they spoke against him so they drag him there to represent that
That's the tradition to drag the new speaker to the chair...
It's tradition, I'm not sure of the origin, but if you look at the video of Bercow's election they did the same to him. It is properly funny though.
@Tom G I don't reside in the UK, thankfully.
Alex G. Many countries or island governments in the world have some quirks. Lighten up FFS.
I'm conservative but he's much better than his predecessor.
Bercow was incredible
@@andrewreid3136 he was probably entertaining but he wasn't unbiased. He also used every opportunity to mock those MP's who disagreed with him
@@andyshell2924 Im Canadian, and he is beloved here
If you call a person ”an absolute spoon” it’s an insult, but if you call them ”an absolute chair” it’s a compliment
Congratulate to you sir..
I am happy that he got it! He deserves it!
What the hell is that guy sitting to the right of the new speaker holding a small child? bizarre
Corbyn is so embarrassing ffs
He has BIG boots to fill. And I am afraid that will be hard.
“The talk is already on the bottle “ 😂😂
Oooh great its fragil rock..iv not seen this in ages..staring boris (juggernaut)Johnson. And Jeremy (Albert steptoe)Corbyn. 🤣🤣🤣
We shall see............ The last one brought the house into further disrepute if that is even possible. How low can they sink is the question.
Big shoes to fill.

Good words Jeremy
One brave and fearful man:
"May it please your majesty, I have neither eyes to see, nor tongue to speak, in this place, but as the house
is pleased to direct me, whose servant I am here; and I humbly ask pardon that I cannot give any other
answer to what your majesty is pleased to demand of me".

alex jervis Yeah, sticking it to Charlie the Second!
@@deniimacdougall Actually Charles I.
I’m from Scotland. As always our vote is pointless. We need independent. I vote SNP. I’m 28. I’m tempted to go for labour to just get tories out. I knew this shambles all along. I vote for Scotland to leave the EU Becuase my vote is void. London out vote my country alone!
Thank god Harman wasn’t chosen.
From 'Oooooooooooder' to 'Can I just say?'
I am just sick of them all hope in the election we clean the place out
why is their a man with a toddler sleeping on his shoulder in the chamber?
Congratulations
How dare you stand where he stood
Notice how when the mp's vote they count and honour it within minutes?! When their people vote, it takes one, two, three, four years??
It was very impressive how the other 200 or so voters who voted the other way made no sound in the bay when he was elected
@@ptwpage1537 almost like it's all predetermined and thus...fake
It's almost like giving someone a single, new employment position is easier than negotiating trade deals for an entire country's worth of citizens. Who knew, right?!
Not really comparable is it, did they have to deal with the immensely complex issue of an Irish backstop before he could take the seat?
Good observation lol. I suspect the logistics of collating 60million votes is a bit tougher but still funny ^_^
I like John Bercow. It's because of him I started to watch UK Parliament sessions and got interested in UK politics, even though I'm not even EU citizen. I hope the new speaker just as interesting and funny like Mr. Bercow.
Shame they didn't drag Bercow out of the chair the same way they dragged him too it
As usual like any Government body, very quick to make a decision on what they want to do but very slow on what the public have asked for
New ring master.
I think he'll be a great speaker.
It’ll be cool to get to listen to a nice northern accent for the next ten years
