The New House of Commons Speaker

Yeah Labour refusing to back a ceasefire on the basis they weren't the ones who'd asked for it and relying on the speaker to throw himself under the bus to get their motion through doesn't really count as handing anyone their arse. Especially when thousands of innocent people have been dying whilst they've been politicking about it for the last few months. Starmer's an embarrassment.
Did none of you notice where the SNP deliberately used words that convicted Israel of war crimes, which they were using to subvert and cause real issues within the Labour Party?

I‘ve posted the SNP motion and amendments in another thread, have a look and pick which motion you would vote for.

That was the problem the Speaker had. With just SNP motion and Conservative amendment, the choice was "war crimes and ceasefire" or "carry on as you were".

Those two are so polarised in a non-binary situation, that it's just a bad motion to put through and would ignore any middle ground.
 
They didnt force him to do anything or do you have proof tbey leaned on him or made threats etc ?
It was widely reported yesterday that Labour had threatened him with de-selection, and that was from the BBC which, contrary to perceived wisdom in here, is not an extension of the Conservative Party.
 
That’s some pretty magical thinking given that the Labour amendment only existed due to Labour forcing the Speaker to break Parliamentary convention.
Evidence?

Let‘s face it, you had a bad day at the office, along with all those bad days while they’ve been in office, and you need somebody to blame. Just take it on the chin and get back to delivering absolutely fuck all for this country.

Lies, distraction and misinformation, that’s all that’s left.
