It would need to be somebody with dignity, calm assurance, the ability to foster a lasting consensus, an eye for detail and a keen interest in making sure that the House runs efficiently and effectively to reflect the views and needs of the whole nation.

#Brexit & triple #PM ‘disaster’ tested respect for #DemocracyMatters , says #CommonsSpeaker - the worst in a generation

“The only thing that was the continuity of #parliament was myself. You know, we were running out of #ministers, you couldn’t believe it. I’ve never seen anything like it. As I say, when you talk to #historians, you talk to senior #politicians, nobody has ever seen anything like it before,” #ToriesUnfitToGovern #cocainecommons #integritymatters
