Well you would say that wouldn't you! I'm reserving judgement.

I'm not sure there was any improvements in the quality of the answers. I guess with a shift from have no overall majority to a massive one the dynamics of debates in the Commons must be different ?

Bercow was entertaining and also did a decent account of holding the government to account, well better than Labour at least...

The Speaker's job description is to fight for the rights of Parliament against the powers of the Govt. I think Bercow did that pretty well, despite being a pretty right-wing tory, at least when he took on the role.

Really hope he doesn't get into the lords. Although I doubt they are easily bullied!
