Imagine how frustrated they have felt over the years.

Re: Bercow constituency

I turely beleive that a more odious peacetime arsehole never walked this earth. It's time that cretin faced up to his numerous mistakes and apologised to all concerned!

Re: Bercow constituency

What a strange law that directly flies in the face of democracy.

Re: Bercow constituency

Hi

Anyone who criticises Bercow has never come across the Elite.

A compliant Speaker is not what we need.

Corbyn with a compliant Speaker would be the end of Democracy.

We would be a Marxist State.

That is not going to happen, I will fight that with every breath in my body

I am left of Centre, I will happily pay more Tax.

Corbyn is simply a No No.

He is a Terrorist Supporter, the man who thought it was right to target my kids on a School Outing.

He can sod off.

Re: Bercow constituency

From article: People would vote for Mr Bercow thinking they were voting Conservative, but they didn't realise that, as Speaker, he no longer represented the party.The problem didn't stop at elections, but also between elections the Speaker didn't vote in Parliament "so effectively we're not represented.

"There's a lot of things that need modernising in Parliament and this is certainly one of them. It's a sham."
A voter has started a campaign called "Give us a voice, not a Speaker" and another like myself, has always voted in elections, but was unsure what to do this time around, although she was leaning towards spoiling her ballot.

Change will only come about if voters make a nuisance of themselves, until our politicians take the electorate seriously.
