John Bercow is (in my opinion) one of the most honorable people to ever hold that position and should remain there as long as possible. Even though I man not agree with all of his views (SNP supporter) I can always rely on his impartiality and ability to control the idiots on all sides. We need a true human being like this to deal with the rats nest that is the houses of parliament.
Sure you don't mean the rats nest at Hollyrood? hand written notes from wee krankie to avoid scrutiny, taxpayers having to pay for fat Eck's court expenses because his case was not properly dealt with, or the provost of Glasgow who billed the council tax payers for clothes to a value of £8, 000 not forgetting the Glasgow council official who ran up £100,000 in expenses on top of a very generous salary.
According to wikipedia, he was once a conservative - so did his own party betrayed him? If so, it definatelly explains the tears. He should stay regardless of ideology, I just hope his intentions are pure, which I believe they are. Oh and im not a leftiest.
lindush maracas He was once a Tory, but when elected from either party the Speaker resigns from that party in order to remain impartial and neutral. The parties generally do not field candidates against the Speaker in elections so that they can be re-elected by their constituency without having to take sides on issues, make political promises, or anything like that: from when they're chosen as Speaker they have to be able to be a neutral referee regardless of their background.

It was not optional there has been an official complaint made about his impartiality by a barrister, and there have been several complaints from people who worked in his office.
I remember this. Basically the conservatives tried to carry out a cheeky last second vote to get rid of John when all MP were at their home/busy (they brought it up the no confidence (or whatever you call it) in the morning and secretly kept a few MP around Parliament to push it through). Labour got wind of this and rushed their entire (or as much as they could) body of MPs back to the house to vote against it. Conservatives then rushed more of their MPs back to Parliament. It Basically became a race against time and every vote counted. So it was even more super backstabby than just a plain vote of no confidence.
@@proleterriert8075 yes he was, although as the speaker you are supposed to be impartial. He didnt always rule in favour of conservatives and stopped some bills, which the tories hated. He is now labour. He's actually gone a bit over to the far left rather than central as well.

So I miss understood my bad. But you was right in you're first instance about this video and why they tried to vote him out. again my bad pal. When you said he wasnt fired I thought what the fook this guy on about lmao.
I'd watch that, but I don't think anyone will ever make something like this. Also there are people even in this comment section who hate him. Difference of opinion is everywhere.
Grandmaster Dinner Roll so bercow is the speaker in the house of commons so basically is meant to be neutral and shout order a lot. But although he is kinda a tory, the tories wanted to chuck him out for being kinda rude and they thought he was bias. But here he was voted to stay in. (I think he's alright tbh)
The big thing was that this vote was on the last day of parliament before it dissolved for re-election, generally nothing gets done and this debate wasn't announced by William Hague until ~2300 the night before. Labour and the Lib Dems had all gone to their conststuencys, but the Conservatives had been asked to stay behind for 'a party meeting', then they tried to push this through. So it was the sneakiness of the whole thing that made it special, there were quite a few Conservative rebels
Imagine a congress where Paul Ryan is a neutral speaker and republicans are trying to oust him, but Nancy Pelosi and her fellow dems are voting to keep him. Lmao.
The continence that Bercow expresses, in order to stay impartial and objective regardless if the vote is actually regarding him directly) is amazing and manifested everytime in him biting his lips and struggling with holding back his tongue 😂
Might sound silly, but why would a Conservative government want to oust a conservative speaker? And why are labour applauding Bearcow remaining as speaker if he was previously a conservative?
The point of a speaker is to be neutral so that it's fair. The conservatives wanted a biased speaker and Labour liked him as he's fair on them, the opposition. The people who tried to oust him are rats.
A lot of people on here are saying he's conservative, but I'm sure I've read somewhere that that was in his earlier days and that he gradually moved over to the left?
He didn't "side with" them in Parliament. Privately, he does feel that "Brexit is the greatest foreign policy mistake in the post-war period", which he said publicly once he left the position and didn't need to be impartial anymore. But he did not allow that specifically to guide his actions and conduct as Speaker. When he took the chair in 2009, he set out to make sure that Government and Opposition members of the House are treated and represented fairly, and that's exactly what he did. If Government ministers want to call him biased and try to oust him for allowing the Opposition to hold them accountable as they should, that should hardly be surprising.
Admitted that his wife's influence on him has changed his political outlook..Hasn't been a Conservative for some time.Strong backing from Labour was telling.I'm sure the Tory front bench were giving him daggers back with interest.

@Bilal Khalid lmao Bilal all this time I thought we were talking about this video th-cam.com/video/89S1cej9TyU/w-d-xo.html
youtube is on its ass at the moment when we go from one video to another the chat doesn't change.
So I miss understood my bad.
But you was right in you're first instance about this video and why they tried to vote him out. again my bad pal.
When you said he wasnt fired I thought what the fook this guy on about lmao.
Is no one going to make a show/movie about him? I’ve been obsessively watching this speaker all over TH-cam
I'd watch that, but I don't think anyone will ever make something like this. Also there are people even in this comment section who hate him. Difference of opinion is everywhere.
Give the man some hors d'oeuvres already
Have no clue what is happening here but the parliament is like a highschool class when they have a supply teacher
Think of how bad the house would be without his remarks
That very final look.. Kina scary
That look 1:43
I'd love to see the death stares he gave whoever moved the motion.
Explain this to an American
Grandmaster Dinner Roll so bercow is the speaker in the house of commons so basically is meant to be neutral and shout order a lot. But although he is kinda a tory, the tories wanted to chuck him out for being kinda rude and they thought he was bias. But here he was voted to stay in. (I think he's alright tbh)
The big thing was that this vote was on the last day of parliament before it dissolved for re-election, generally nothing gets done and this debate wasn't announced by William Hague until ~2300 the night before. Labour and the Lib Dems had all gone to their conststuencys, but the Conservatives had been asked to stay behind for 'a party meeting', then they tried to push this through. So it was the sneakiness of the whole thing that made it special, there were quite a few Conservative rebels
Imagine a congress where Paul Ryan is a neutral speaker and republicans are trying to oust him, but Nancy Pelosi and her fellow dems are voting to keep him. Lmao.
Eyes to the right nose to the left
@@sjwdestroyer4895 Not hard to understand, Paul Ryan is on the side of Nancy,
never forget
He is the face of parliament. So happy for him :)
Then, Mr Bercow, start being FAIR!
The continence that Bercow expresses, in order to stay impartial and objective regardless if the vote is actually regarding him directly) is amazing and manifested everytime in him biting his lips and struggling with holding back his tongue 😂
What’s gone on here ? What’s the back story
Might sound silly, but why would a Conservative government want to oust a conservative speaker? And why are labour applauding Bearcow remaining as speaker if he was previously a conservative?
The point of a speaker is to be neutral so that it's fair. The conservatives wanted a biased speaker and Labour liked him as he's fair on them, the opposition. The people who tried to oust him are rats.
@@ub3rfr3nzy94 ahh i've got you, thanks a lot!!
A lot of people on here are saying he's conservative, but I'm sure I've read somewhere that that was in his earlier days and that he gradually moved over to the left?
@@thelightisahead he was a tory before 09. He has moved over left a bit pherhaps. Still pretty fair though. He is mostly unbiased
When a speaker is elected to the job, as per tradition and protocol he/she denouces all their political affiliation for ever.
I need a bit of an explanation about what is happening in this video...
This is confusion of the highest ordaaa!!
John Bercow … you are very respected !!
Congratulations
He sided with remainers.
A speakers must be impartial
He didn't "side with" them in Parliament. Privately, he does feel that "Brexit is the greatest foreign policy mistake in the post-war period", which he said publicly once he left the position and didn't need to be impartial anymore. But he did not allow that specifically to guide his actions and conduct as Speaker. When he took the chair in 2009, he set out to make sure that Government and Opposition members of the House are treated and represented fairly, and that's exactly what he did. If Government ministers want to call him biased and try to oust him for allowing the Opposition to hold them accountable as they should, that should hardly be surprising.
Seriously, what a nuthouse.
Bunch of screeching reptiles

@@David-dv7rv I finally found the lunatics of the TH-cam comments!
Order!
He is a legend and a gentleman, and does his job perfectly well !
Admitted that his wife's influence on him has changed his political outlook..Hasn't been a Conservative for some time.Strong backing from Labour was telling.I'm sure the Tory front bench were giving him daggers back with interest.
Poor guy
What is exactly happening in the video ??
Someone please explain.
I love Bercow, he’d make a mint pub landlord
The speaker we don't deserve
