John Bercow speaks to Iain Dale after inquiry brands him a serial bully | LBC

- Ex-Commons speaker John Bercow has told LBC he "absolutely denies" claims he bullied his colleagues, insisting he is a "warm, empathetic, principled and passionate person".
Speaking to Iain Dale on LBC, Mr Bercow said he had "fantastic" relations with most of his colleagues after a damning report found he is a "serial bully" who should have been "expelled" if he was still an MP.
The damning conclusions were upheld by an Independent Expert Panel following an investigation by the Parliamentary Standards Commissioner.
It has been recommended he should lose his parliamentary pass - and Labour has reportedly suspended him. Although he was a Tory before becoming speaker, he announced he had joined Sir Keir Starmer's party last year.

Iain Dale trying to bully John Bercow. Iain Priti Patel was found guilty of breaking the ministerial code 4 timesl and was found guilty of bullying, why is she still in parliament?
Iain always backs the conservatives even when they lie he backs them all the way why he is a radio presenter is beyond me
Aw is your little Bercuck getting held to account. Diddums.
Because Labour holds their most of their MP’s accountable much more often than the Conservatives. Conservatives will continue to lie, bully and break the rules and get away with it because they aren’t held accountable by the press or the opposition. However if Labour are caught doing anything it’s a full on attack even if it’s not even true.
@@rhodriwilliams2599 The LIebour party still hasn't held Tony Blair to account for an illegal war, the leftwing Labour MPs that atrociously failed grooming gang victims are still paid £83,000 of the taxpayer money per year, Keith Starmer has supported sacking NHS staff for daring to choose what goes into their bodies...
One rule for the Labour party, another rule for everyone else, huh?
Obvious troll is obvious.
By the way Dr's have to have numerous other vaccines to practice.
John Bercow speech, “ I’d like to take this opportunity to apologise to absolutely nobody “
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
If you've read his book you will see that many Right Wingers hated him.Firstly because he personally moved to the left and because of his modernising agenda.They couldn't get him removed during his tenure so they destroyed him after
I concur with your sentiment 100%
@@aldershot5100 The left also hate him not because of his reforms , but because he was an arrogant bully who tried to overturn the outcome of a democratic vote. Many of whom voted to leave the EU.
P. S. Although there is no formal means of removing the speaker of the house. If he were to be expelled from the house then he would be automatically removed from office.
I think that wrong mate.The Govt went against all proper procedure and rules over Brexit through the House.He simple did his job.
@@aldershot5100 Sorry to disappoint but the government didn't do that much wrong and poroguing of Parliament was deemed illegal by a self confessed remoaner. Infact one of those most vociferous on that matter John Major who did the same thing himself to avoid the cash for questions scandal.
That aside apart from having a meeting the new president of the EU in 2019 to negotiate with the EU on behalf of the UK, which was definitely outside of his job's remit he also interfered at least 5 times to stop Brexit by his bizarre rulings and was told so by the clerk of the court but in his arrogance said I'm going to do it anyway.
That my friend is not holding the government to account but a deliberate attempt to thwart Brexit
and the will of the electorate.
Because like a lot of the so called remainer metropolitan elite he thought that those who voted for Brexit didn't know what they voted for . That he knew better than the peasants.
This is almost Monty Python: "you're an argumentative person", "no I'm not"
Yeah, came here to say something similar. No matter how factual his points may (or may not) be, he's got a strong defensive and dismissive front and cares little for how that comes across.
I liked him from what I saw if him in parliament but it's hard to take his side when his attitude is like this. I get that, from his perspective, he's being attacked and defamed, but I don't think he sees the other perspective around how his behaviour and personality lands with others.
@@tomboyle4312 yes, he's a hard-nosed reformer, cold, great communicator, with appetite for dialogue but still got consumed by the institutions. Brexit should've been perfect for him to facilitate for the sovereignty of the country and parliament but he saw pound signs and ended up blatantly scuppering it.
@@ianjones3568 Brexit happened.... what reality are you living in?
the vote for Brexit was deemed illegitimate, the only reason we did get Brexit was not because of the public vote, but because the parliament voted to enact article 50, if they hadn't done that the public vote would of have to be held again.
@@fergusdenoon1255 thanks nbc
bercow, says it all when he replies I’m not concerned.,
Thing is...John Bercow was so clear and concise to Mr Dale that I wouldn't be surprise that he "felt bullied" by the categorical clarification
What are you talking about?
Agreed. Bercow has a turbo charged passion for language and a rapier mind to boot. He would come off as a bully, intellectually. The Old Boys loathe up start clever clogs. A great crime in their eyes.
@@sararichardson737
You clearly haven’t the faintest idea, just like Bercow himself, what bullying is. It is not the use of fine language. I suggest you read the report.
@@pippipster6767 People feel intimidated by high intelligence and articulation, and intimidation and bullying just depends on how much of a victim you want to be

Utter nonsense.
Pritti Patel was also found guilty of bullying using obscenities. Bercow was also found guilty.Bercow was declared a non-person. Patel was promoted.
Indeed and there lies the hypocrisy.Priti Patel is a known bully and vile human being to those around her.Yet she is promoted????
Not to mention her use of public money to bury the issue

How can anyone be bullied by a five feet lady they must be weak probably woke lefties
He probably is...but isn't it amazing the difference in responce that such accusations get when you're not Priti Patel?

That does not mean he isn't one.
@jenwill11 Yeah, how dare he lie about illegally proroguing parliament! He lied to the Queen! Glad the supreme court ruled against him and his remoaner lies, right?
@@remy4379 what on Earth are you trying to say? That parliament was not prorogued?
@jenwill11 brexturds/tory supporters are soo dumb it's funny and sad 😂😔
So hearsay is okay but witnesses who might contradict the complainant are seen as potentially biased and therefore not interviewed. You'd hate to be on the receiving end of such a process yourself.
Who has a "journal" of figments and fantasies to write in it that a person who cares about the truth is "a bully"? Let me think! Dodgy broom-browed beardy people who don't have anything else to do in their WORK TIME come to mind...

Isn’t it ironic that they can interview someone like Mr Bercow like this, but you get a Tory MP on there lying through their teeth they just let it slide.. Hypocrites.
Spot on
🤣
Were they interviewing them about being bullies? 🤷
but you get an MP [ANY MP] on there lying through their teeth they just let it slide.
There you go, corrected for you
Are you aware that there is a convicted criminal sitting on the Labour benches? Thought not.
That poor mr Bercow. Why is everybody making up nasty stories about him? He is clearly inocent, he just told us that about five hundred times! He is a living saint!!
🤣🤣
Listen to someone describe themself as 'warm and empathetic ' and draw your own conclusions.
It is like Trump calling himself a stable genius
I was going to make the same comment. Thanks for doing it for me.
Frank field bullied my wife for years she went to parliament standards and they investigated nothing and did nothing double standards by parliament. I even phoned LBC about it as my wife had the evidence what he did/doing and you wasn’t interested ☹️
Try and get this noticed ^ keep shouting
Sorry to hear your wife had to put up with working for Frank field but not surprised that nobody took her complaints seriously. They don't really care about this sort of thing unless there's some political angle to it.
''WHAT ABOUTTTTT WHAT ABOUTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!'' Screamed the Liebour party voter.
tells much about brittish politicians and power - one cant do or say nothing -Only their own powerchannels matters
“You were not interested” not “wasn’t interested”
C’mon man.
Priti 5.hitty Patel, anyone?
Johnsonovich himself?
.
Dale deliberately set out to provoke Bercow and Bercow didn't even rise to it.
Cool as a cucumber.
Ah ok, so by your theory we should just ignore the claims against Johnson or Patel because its their word against someone elses?
Labour party lobbying to get Bercow a peerage anyone?
@@user-vh6ts9uf6c what like the torys ignored THE FULL evidence of Patel? Okay
@@Midnightsquids Why do people keep saying that? 1. Patel has nothing to do with Bercow - I don't get the comparison
2. What is your solution here? Your other comment is saying this is all a stitch up by the Tories. So should Patel apply the same logic by any future investigation? Or should Bercow be allowed off? What do you want to happen - Bercow let off or Patel investigated? Explain...
Thanks Zaros Perfect analysis. I do admit I can’t stand Ian the bozo fan,
Actually, Iain Dale lost it!
Not surprised talking to a serial liar who's getting angry as the interview goes on.
Bercow is a man of words.... just words. Drivel.
Ian is a skilled presenter, but he was up against a master of words and because of that it was a no-contest in the 'who has swallowed the English dictionary' contest🤣🤣🤣
So Iain dale who was convicted of assault on a pensioner is the right person for this interview?
And why is priti Patel not banned? She too was found to be guilty of bullying.
She hasn't got an honest bone in her body, they can't kick her out or else Labour would poach her!
And what are your opinions on Bercow as you failed to mention him once in your comment?
Iain Dale seems to really ramp up the aggression in an interview if the interviewee isn't a member of the Conservative Party.
Behind the facade, Bercow is still a member of the Conservative party.
@@harrypainter7472 I don't think so!
@@whatsinaname11 agreed. As long as JRM & Boris are in leadership Bercow will distance himself from the party.
@@whatsinaname11 You're convinced he's Labour through and through and he didn't just join them for a peerage?
Really??
Sounds like Iain had an agenda and didn't care what John said.
Also when is Priti Patel being banned from Parliament for her bullying?
I'm so happy you noticed that most people that would go right over there heads well done now we are slowly waking up to what is really going on
Why did the Labour party lobby to get John Bully Bercow a peerage? Shameful behaviour.
Bercow reminds me so much of my line manager. Never in the wrong, always someone else's fault or staff's recollections of several unsavoury incidents (with no third party witness) are flawed and incorrect. All the staff that say things to the contrary are therefore liars or have poor memories.
Don't worry, we believe you. It's not you Johnny it's all the others.
Big stitch up by the Establishment, because he didn’t toe the line.
You can hear them last night , gathered in the club sipping their toddy’s shouting hurrah great job boys , we stuffed the blighter, you don’t cross us and get away with it !
You can see the bitterness in Iain Dales eyes , disgraceful interviewing
@Macavity mp maybe but speaker absolutely not
I couldn't agree more, it's coming across as well planned, "hit job" as payback for standing up to Boris and his mates in parliament.
@@Eurodave. how can it be a hit job when it was done by an independent panel?
@@mitchell4431 It's a fair question. However, what is suspicious to me, they have to go back 12 years to find this stuff (so nothing recent) and as soon as his case is finished, the govt change the rules so no one can bring further cases that are more than 12 months old. I guess the rationale behind this, is that any evidence in support of older cases is often considered unreliable because of the passage of time. So why then does this rationale not apply to Bercow's case? The other thing is the timing of the rule change, it comes across as a bit suspicious, don't you think? There are also allegations by Mr Bercow that testimony given in support of Mr Bercow was ignored. If true, I think there is more to this case, than meets the eye.
This is why I think this story comes across as a stitch up job.
@Macavity No he wasn't.
A "warm, empathetic person". Christ, when has he EVER come off like that?
To be blind to one’s shadow is a dangerous thing
Even the tone of his voice is enough to make a blind person feel patronised. He’s a vile man
He is also a proven liar...
Delusional.
maybe when it suits him
Why does Ian keep interrupting when he doesn't like the answer?
Because he is a Tory
Because its his MO. A failed wannabe politician who can do little else than just fire questions at people when they don't say what he wants them to.
If there is such a thing as a kangaroo court, then Iain Dale is a kangaroo.
If we are going for marsupial insults than Dale is an absolute wombat!
And Bercow has short man syndrome hence he's been found gulty of being a patholigical liar, bullyer of women.
Very true
So…..Iain bullying John while failing to prove he’s a bully 🙃
He's been found guilty of bullying.. are you remoaners actually this dense?
Doesn't have to prove anything it's already been proven.
RI: So asking questions and trying to clarify the situation has now become bullying 🤔
@@nightowl7459 Nah. Bullying is bullying. Trying to spin a situation of bullying as ''oh it was just friendly questioning'' is just laughable. I know you Bercow fanboys are obviously on your knees with dishonesty, but please. Save the far-left nonsense for your echochamber.
Well.
After 21 people having there case against Bully Bercow upheld if you can’t see that then you must be a Bully yourself 😡
Iain, Iain, Iain, you don't know why the Tories want to crucify him? Come on.
I think he dies know, given Iain is a Brexit supporting Conservative.
Bercow was a tory throughout his tenure... what's wrong with the tories holding him to account ?
Because he's a big mouth narcissistic biased bully his Ego is as big as a house he thinks he's right all the time and that's the rub of it
A classic narcissist. I've had to deal with plenty of them in Academia.
They’re everywhere … know many.
he isn't narcissitic, the tories are just trying to get at him for saying boris was a narcissist
Bercow guilty, Patel found guilty of bullying…why the double standards and hypocrisy?
Both were investigated under different systems but both found guilty, why is Patel a minister and not been bannned from parliament 😠
She is a Boris devotee and defender of the deregulated capitalist "free" market....
As the conclusion of both investigations, based on the evidence, was vastly different.
Did you read both reports, or just the headlines?
@@mrgejwaites both reports…... my point is if both found guilty in different type of investigations then both should be treated the same re parliament. However if they want to prove otherwise that should also be allowed, but there is only one of them denying the findings publicly. So without knowing the legal position on this matter he should be allowed to challenge.
@@disct1597 Patel was not found conclusively guilty. The findings stated that her conduct may have been considered bullying.
Bercow was conclusively found to have bullied colleagues on 21 occasions.
He did have the opportunity to challenge the findings, the appeal resulted in all 21 allegations being upheld.
@@mrgejwaites she was found guilty of breaking the ministerial code and that was for bullying. Sources familiar with the inquiry said it had found evidence that civil servants were treated poorly by Patel, as well as compelling evidence of bullying. But guess what Boris Johnson was the sole arbiter of the rules in her case. Speculation over the inquiry did prompt condemnation of the Cabinet Office inquiry process, which is conducted in secret and offers no recourse for complainants.
So again my point regardless of the type of investigation for one of them in secret they both bullied and should be treated the same.
As a non Brit this is hilarious. I haven’t heard any proper argument for this vilification of Bercow.
And the irony comes when considering what other British politicians get away with.
I'm genuinely really glad that this is apparent to those outside of the UK. This entire situation is ridiculous
As a non-Brit I'm glad Bercow is being held to account over his bullying. Obviously the far-left are a bit angry about it because their side is being held to account but quite frankly, who cares what the alphabet people think.
maybe read the 89 page report for utself that every person in media has read and agrees it was bullying.. of course u havent read it, but think u no best... lol
it might just open the flood gates to all others. lets hope
100% agree
Dale is not in the same class as Bercow.
your right Dale is a few classes above
No and that's a complement
And Bercow isn't in the same class as Reese Mogg
Jesus, what an opinionated interviewer ... does he want answers, or is it just all about him asking questions?
I agree 100%…
John Bercow talks absolute sense …..
The interviewer makes statement about what JB “must have been thinking”……terrible interviewing style …..

I absolutely agree with you. The effect can be devastating.
The thing is, there's a double standard at play with the current government. Priti Patel was accused of practically the same thing with regards to bullying; with much more recent allegations, and she remains in post.
Boris Johnson (and I'm not even joking when I say this) lies more than he tells the truth.
The establishment have clearly got it in for Bercow, as he didn't comply with their agenda - so they've slung as much mud as they can at him, in the hopes that something sticks...

Nice distration technique
Why does Dale fail to broach the possibility of bias in the committee, and the possibility that this might be a case of a schoolyard ganging up on somebody who they, for personal reasons, took a dislike to?
He isn't a bully! The way he speaks to Iain isn't far off! Never liked Bercow, two-faced and a very short fuse.
And what's you're opinion of other bullies? Like Priti Patel, for example?
Iain Dale was way out of his league, John Bercow made him look a joke. Fact is this is a smear campaign against John. John Bercow was the best speaker the UK ever had he was passionate, principled & impartial.
Impartial?
No, in fact the exact opposite on Brexit
Ahahhaah John Bercow has been found guilty of bullying. I know you Bercow fanboys are very upset but please. Save the leftwing nonsense for Twitter.
He began that way but was compromised by power. His last 2 years were embarrassingly biased against Brexit and the government.
This is gross to watch, whether this guy is guilty or not, the guy interviewing him obviously has fully made his mind up, there aren't two sides to this story. He asks him a question and then interrupts him before he can finish answering it every time, not only that but he clearly isn't even listening to him, you can tell by just looking at him that he's just waiting for his next chance to speak. where did this guy learn to interview people, the school of Trump
The report has said categorically that Bercow is a bully. Why are you so quick to believe the bully? Could you be......... biased? 🤔
@@mogznwaz Did you not listen to anything John Bercow said during the interview about the nature of the "evidence" and the way the report was conducted? Every point he made about the nature of the accusations against him were credible and proof of the inconsistencies within the system, especially relating to how other "Bullies" have been let off.
@@mogznwaz Because something written in a report means it true. Heaven forbid people want to hear the other side and make their own minds up.
Ian Dale is the worst kind of journalist, a Tory stooge
If you can bear to listen to Dale you will find that is how he operates. I only listened to this because I was pleased to see Burcow gave him an interview. Dale is a Tory stooge.
Bercow in total denial. Rather like in denial about the Brexit vote
'They've all got it in for me. They are all liars who have colluded and plotted to get me thrown out. I'm a Saint, a Saint I tell you!'
This is a blatant retort to Bercow's calling out Johnson and his cronies dispicable running of the Government. Well done to Bercow for his conscious, constant and precise responses.
Facts
Bercow must obviously be morally superior because he's a Remainer, right?
@@mogznwaz from what i see its nothing about being remain or leave, Bercow gave Boris a verbal beating when asked to describe him on Sky, now this is the conservatives retort.
I do find it hilarious how the Liberal/Labour types are excusing his behaviour (as outlined in an independent 80 page document) but calling for Priti Patel's blood for doing exactly the same. The hypocrisy is sickening.
Ahahahah Bercow's been ousted as a far-left bully. Glad he's been held to account.
Wrong interviewer, he automatically took the other side as facts. No fan of Mr Bercow, but this was a terrible interview. I agree with another comment, O’brien should have done the interview.
and mr JoB never does that 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You’ve obviously never watched O’Brien interview Sadiq Khan then idiot
It's sad that the interviewer was not as smart as Mr. Bercow.
For instance. why he did not come up with any fact that proves Mr Bercow has lied on many occasions. How can you say that he is a serial liar with zero examples?
Also, Even if Mr Bercow smashed his phone out of anger. This is an attitude issue or anger issue. Not a bullying issue.
This interview did not help me to find out whether Mr Bercow is a bully or not. In fact, now I have more questions than answers
JOB would simply have licked Bercow's boots because of his un-parliamentary machinations during Brexit. Dale at least challenged Bercow.
@@JI-rx8uc i was being facetious😀
Ian Dale comes across as if he has an agenda. When I listened to him saying about the benefits of Brexit changed my opinion of him.

This thing about He said and She said. Poor journalism tbh
Never trust anyone who tells you they are an honest person !!
When being tutored in a court case the tutor will stress it is important not to give yourself praise or testament. It simply brings to the jury the idea you are hiding anything. Nixon's "I am not a crook" was the most obvious example. Indeed the only people saying "I am not a conman" actually are.

The fact is they found him to be a bully
Based purely on your own words Sir, you appear to be aware that you were indeed "a nasty peice of work" but if i may be permitted to guess, you were not troubled by that, because you were so utterly convinced that the cause you stood for took precedence above all. Above everyone. You getting what you wanted matter more than anything. Did it not?
So by this standard Priti Patel should be out also...
It's only cuz Bercow would have been a real credible candidate for Labour leadership...
As an ex Tory, I doubt he would have got the party members vote.
He was a VERY naughty boy when younger.
Bercow as Labour leader=another decade of the Tories in power
ALL else aside, fair play to the man for turning up and giving an interview.
Yep, even though he tried to worm his way out in typical Labour party MP style, respect for turning up.
Ego always defends itself
When he speaks,he nods his head to try and emphasize everything he is saying as to trying to convince the viewers.
Notice the difference in the interviewers manner.
Berco is a little man with a huge ego.
....on LBC....hardly brave! Surprised it was not James o'biased!
Go on talk radio. Gb news. Podcast with Piers Morgan.
I think people like him are so full of themselves , that they think they can convince the listeners of their innocence.
By far he is the best Speaker the house of maniacs has ever had.
Just because you agree with his B*llocks to Brexit line
Strait talking people are always called bullies because when you speak the truth the liers don't like it .
Here’s some straight talking ‘he’s a nasty little bully’.
There’s always a bad excuse for bad behaviour, and you’re it.
Who has a "journal" of figments and fantasies to write in it that a person who cares about the truth is "a bully"? Let me think! Dodgy broom-browed beardy people who don't have anything else to do in their WORK TIME come to mind... AND THE UK TAXPAYERS PAID HIM TO WORK BUT LISVANE WAS TOO BUSY WRITING HIS NASTY FABRICATIONS, FANTASIES AND LIES IN HIS JOURNAL...
The truth hurts.
But we cant just go around harassing people. However there is something odd going on here and it seems like a smear campaign against a man who has recently denounced the PM quite rightly regarding partygate.
I recall there was a similar report on the Home Secretary, but she had a guardian angel.
Aah yes
I entirely agree, the guardian angel 👼 bozo,
Called Boris.
She was found guilty of bullying staff by an inquiry Pete 👍
@@Jw._02 Have you been hibernating for a month James ?
The classic bully never see themselves as a bully.
Nicely put!
@Mikey K Actually, most bullies like being bullies because it gives them a sense of importance.
If only some of the tories could look into a mirror for us then.
Classic non-falsifiable hypothesis
I haven't read the 89 page report and have no intention of defending him. However, Home Secretary Priti Patel was also found guilty of bullying and remains unpunished.
Priti Patel is accountable to the electorate. Bercow isn't.
@@ajs41 I know. My point is that the findings of the investigation were ignored in Patel's case. She should have been sacked.
This is completely different.
But you know that.
And I'd wager you voted remain.
@@Bobmudu35UK In what way is it completely different? Johnson called for his colleagues to "form a square to protect the Pritster". I don't hear him calling to let Bercow off the hook. Just to be clear, I accept the findings and expect Bercow to be punished. I also want the bullies, cheats and liars in the government to be punished. What does that have to do with Brexit?
I think the key issue is the scale and duration of Bercow’s bullying. I am no fan of Patel btw. Also, an aggravating factor is that one of the Speaker’s jobs is to maintain standards. On a personal note, and before publication of the report, Bercow always came across to me as a relentlessly arrogant person who beat people up with his gish gallop style and was incapable of self reflection or accepting he could ever be wrong.
If he's a bully what would Priti Patel be?
A bully without order.
Out of order?
So priti Patel bullies people and gets a promotion, bercow bullies people and is removed from Parliament it’s a joke 😂😂
Loony lefty response 😩
@@jamesmp1015 for stating a fact? 😂😂 I agree the righty’s can’t handle the truth 😂😂
Iain doing his utmost to become the victim of bullying, to further a narrative...
A race to the bottom. Brilliant 🙄
Dale must think he's been batting for the Tories long enough to be worth a title. His proudest moment to come - to receive an honour approved by Spiv Johnson!
The narrative being the fact John Bercow is a bully and a liar?
If Bercow had voted leave, and been biased towards remain voters throughout his time as speaker, you'd be singing ba very very different tune... Wouldn't you. You are apart of the race to the bottom
@@weeblywinkleman6410 we’re already at the bottom
@@weeblywinkleman6410 you know nothing about me. But youve made a lot of presumptions. Well done. Go tell the rest of your team.
Pitiful.
@@John1873--
So you voted leave then?
SO WHY DID HE GET VOTED IN TIME AFTER TIME
There's a reason judges don't convict on witness testimony alone.
The sheer arrogance of Bercow is sickening
Well done Mr Bercow
Why are you praising a bully?
@@user-vh6ts9uf6c who said he was a bully ?
Discgrunted Tories did you listen to the whole interview ffs
@@paulfulton7968 Can you name the "disgruntled Tories" you cite from the report?
For bullying? Found the Liebour voter.
@@user-vh6ts9uf6c Angela leadsom
Just look at the way politicians behave in Parliament. Then some of them cry bully because they may or may not have been called a horrible person!
Double standards anyone?
Yes, Cameron bullied Corbin over his jacket and Johnson called him a chlorinated chicken. Osborne demonized the unemployed with his closed curtains smear. They love doling it out.
Bercow bullied his staff. You know, people who can't answer back for fear of losing their job.
You aren’t out talking John Bercow, not surprised he’s been kicked out after the stuff he’s been saying about Boris, Boris will be fuming and wants rid of him
Thomas Cawley and Boris Johnson should be kicked out for lying , along with Patel she was also a bully and kept her job
Johnson is a total narcissist, keep it up JB!
Bertcrows crime was not to play the game the frontenders wanted him to play, thats why they vilified him...
100 percent correct you are on the ball well done keep eye peeled
The victim blaming by the Labour reamainers is sickening.
This is clearly a hit job.
He could well deserve it, but it's still a hit job
I thought he was as eloquent as ever.
Pathetic he comes across as a bully in this interview alone hes very condescending too yet people are still supporting him all over these comments.
He walked into the interview didn't he? It was straight up presented as a questioning of his character 🤷
if you think he possible deserves it, then you must think the allegations are true. So how is it a hit piece exactly?
@@Pacman398 I think you need a refresher on the definition of the word "possible".
His conduct since the report shows him for what he is
yeah a grade-A-cunt - a typical house of commons character!
@@deekayme And now it transpires his Wife called police to their house and they asked him to leave
He was biased and definitely an arrogant bully, dont know how he got away with it for so long, nasty little man...
Bercow just walked all over him. Is this also bullying now then?
It's not a competition, he's just asking questions.
@@glennseaward3050 the interviewer was trying to debate points but got smacked down each time and then tried to change the subject. Obv he's asking questions but he wasn't being impartial.
@@Sickofdrawingcowboys717 well he's asking questions to a man who's been found to been bullying by an independent panel. Hardly a surprise.
@@glennseaward3050 you're bullying me. I'm going to make a complaint.
@@Sickofdrawingcowboys717 I knows I'm nasty 🤪
The issue with Bercow is that he has no softness, he is always right, there is no contrition, he is conceited, so regardless of the truth, he paints himself as unlikeable, what I see here, is that everyone save for Bercow has a bad memory, unlike 'Mr Perfect,' whose memory seems, prima facie, to be crystal clear.
There is an awful lot of smoke, if, as Bercow claims, there is no sign of a fire.
I note when he is under pressure, as he is here, he points with his finger, that is the trait of a man on the edge of trying to control his temper, whenever anyone points at me, I curtail the interface there and then, it is an unacceptable way to conduct a conversation.
well said. I tried to make the same point myself, but less well than you have.
@@JohnJones-wo1bc Thank you, I did think about it for fifteen minutes, as I am not fan of Ian Dale, so I had to imagine that he was not there and concentrate on John Bercow and his actions.
Not true.
Bercow has expressed his contrition regarding his involvement with far right groups in his youth.
@@Dunbar0740 I am talking about this interview,, please stay with the pace.
Only to be known as a narcissist………that what a bully and a liar is
'A mobile phone was smashed onto a desk, which broke into pieces, a lot of which hit her'?
Ok, just show me a simulation of that. It must be some parallel universe that has different laws of physics to the one most of us inhabit.
@@AnubisKD Phones 12 years ago were not bricks phones 25 years ago were not bricks
Just one minute here!!! What is the point in interviewing this man at all if its been established he's a serial liar
Iain is well known for being a serial liar.... what's your actual point?
What's the point of electing one as PM...but there you go. I'd wager there's more evidence of Johnson being a liar.
It's all a bit rich coming from Iain Dale, the man who roughed up an old man protesting against nuclear weapons in Brighton a few years ago. He was definitely a bully and it's on video. In fact every unkind word or heated argument you've ever had will now be backdated as bullying.
Rufus, please don't breed
@@gumusluk05 Help, I'm being bullied by a snowflake. In his wet dreams.
I think I can hear Trump laughing from here 😂😂
Trump wouldn't have understood Bercow's vocabulary.
@@101dannybhoy Yeah that will be a comfort to Bercow in his old honourless age 🙄😂 All that vocabulary and no one listening or believing him.....
He got too big for his boots.
@@101dannybhoy Neither does most of the common populace. I understood Trump easily. No twisted words there.
he confirms everything that has been said about him
Yep. Got all the Remoaners in the comments defending a pathological liar and bullying harrasser of women.
Dale was intentionally trying to get a rise out of Bercow to see his bullying in action. He didn't succeed.
Bercow is extremely specific in his position and Dale tries to twist his words.
Bercow is far too clever for people like dale
The Conservative party know that Bercow is a very decent and competent politician who is also extremely popular. So destroying his reputation is a key priority for the Conservative party.
Ahahahahhah here we are in 2022 with the Labour party voters blaming women victims for daring to speak out against abuse.
Women aren’t valued unless they’re Labour supporters
Iain Dale! What a despicable show you made!!!
Lol Bercow utterly destroyed Ian, I don't know if we will ever know the truth but the evidence doesn't quite add up after listening to this interview but I don't know the full facts.
He speaks the truth!
😂🤣😂👌
That's Ian Dale for you
@@kethughes8266 very funny!
Bercow says here that he was repeatedly re elected to his seat whilst Speaker, as a Buckingham Voter would point out that this is factually incorrect, as Speaker no one from the recognised Parties stood against him, therefore he got a free pass, which many still get annoyed about, effectively we residents didn't get a valid vote for more than 10 years, this in a so called Democracy....
He was referring to his re-election as speaker, this is a vote that occurs amongst members of the Houses of Parliament. I absolutely agree with you that the lack of representation of the speaker's constituency is one of the greatest flaws in our democratic system but Bercow wasn't suggesting his mandate as speaker came from his constituents.
The general public don't elect the speaker.
It's wasn't Mr Bercow's fault that no one stood against him. Surely if people thought he was doing a bad job a candidate would have been put forward.....but it never happened.
@@euanparker2534 His mandate as a speaker comes from the house. He has to give the house an opportunity to overturn the government. It is his choice as to what and when.
As he presided over a hung parliament, the opportunity arose on many occasions. That's why Lindsey is silent 80 majority no chance.
That’s appalling, I wouldn’t have thought that was legal…😡
Dale didn't lay a glove on him
Lol Dale slapped him up with ease. Light work considering Bercow has been found guilty and is banned from the HOC for life.
Maybe that's what he was told to do?
Agree, like him or loath him, he was impressive in his own defence and this nonsense is more about someone losing their temper ( on occasion )
Did t need to he’s ruined
Bad bad bercow
I'm glad Mr. Bercow came on to clarify claims of nastiness and bullying....and to practically confirm every single one of them..
The way he says "Ian" at the end of every sentence, just makes him sound guilty
When someone uses the other person’s name in the way Bercow did in this debate you get a glimpse into his behaviour with his work colleagues. Nasty, pompous Lord Farqaad!
No it doesn’t it’s softening his responses
cool way to announce you've made your mind up and refuse to be changed.
🤣
Well done John don't let him bully you
Still loves the sound of his own voice.
Ironically, you're making a bullying statement
@@Lerpzoid no, but you are
David Cameron said,when he chose John Bercow, he's a Jew ,IAM also Jewish community,John has overestimated the Public towards Brexit, even Lady Thatcher said as far as EU is concerned ,no,No,No,so Hezza got her out ,and to this day he's still not excepting the Referendum result.
@@jamesyoung4309 and my dad's bigger than your dad!
I know I can't bear Iain Dale.
Im not a fan of Bercow, and as the speaker of the house his judgement was sum what suspect! I cant Boothroyd would of allowed what went on during the Brexit debates. However he made points where he was cleared of bullying only for the panel to set aside the finding and find him guilty without any further evidence, being found... All rather shoddy to be honest. A judge would of thrown it out!
So his victims didn't matter?
I feel terrible for those poor hardworking MPs getting bullied.
John Regan haha
I feel sorry for anyone h having to work under this nasty little clot.
Pretty sure I have seen awful bullying in the house of commons and not from Bercow
It was Bercow's staff, not MPs.
@@BobK5 yet we have a home Secretary who all but gets away with bullying, I wonder why the double standards 🤔.
