Let's hope that this grotesque bit of self-indulgence at the taxayer's expense persuades Mr Cameron that a new Speaker is needed.
However, I won't hold my breath: Mr Cameron's politics are of the "don't rock the boat" school.

Hasn't taken The Berk long to start troughing in his new role.
I hope he'll be out come next summer.
