I like a speaker who's a character, which reminds me of George Thomas - Lord Tonypandy trying to control exchanges between Thatcher and Kinnock.
Not forgetting Dennis Skinner, who was politely asked to leave the chamber for calling Cameron, 'dodgy Dave.'

Classic! He uses the word "ORDER!" the way tRump uses the words "EXCUSE ME!"
That is, meaning "SHUT THE HAYULL UP!"

He is a treasure.
His Twitter feed is also magnificent: https://twitter.com/hoc_speaker_mp
He has something with Michael Gove - seems he won’t let his little indiscretion go.

That is CHOICE. Thanks for the good laugh!
Love his twitter feed as well.

Here’s the video. Nicely done.
Nice to see that the “drain the swamp” rhetoric has crossed the pond.
(Where “nice” means “puke-inducing”).

Many Conservatives feel that he leaned too much to the left in later days, but they would say that wouldn't they, especially the anti-EU members.
A memorable speaker at least attracts people to watch the goings on in the House of Commons. Does anyone remember Betty Boothroyd, Michael Martin or Bernard Weatherill?
John Bercow, along with George Thomas (later, Viscount Tonypandy) have/had charisma. Bercow will likely get a peerage, unless Boris takes umbrage.

Because misery loves company?

I’m glad to see that John Bercow isn’t leaving silently.

No, he most definitely is NOT going to simply fade into the night.
