Bercow’s saviour?

WHEN he became Speaker, the insufferably pompous John Bercow pledged he would serve nine years then stand down. Bercow, who is under huge pressure over bullying allegations, is now indicating that he will carry on. Loathed by most Tory MPs, they should be careful what they wish for. A dark horse to replace Bercow is the Labour veteran and high priestess of political correctness Harriet Harman. It may yet be the even more awful prospect of Speaker Harman that saves Bercow from the exit lounge.
