Conservative MP: John Bercow frustrates MPs
A Conservative MP has said Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow frustrates MPs with his "inconsistency". Paul Scully told The Westminster Hour: "It's the inconsistency I think that does frustrate MPs at various times. There are some days he could probably do with taking the medicament that he prescribes backbenchers every other Prime Minister's Questions himself. He really needs to be aware what people are thinking and be open." John Bercow has denied several recent allegations of bullying from former Commons staff.
