John Bercow is today suffering a mauling on Conservativehome after calling for an extension of sex education to combat the levels of pregnancy and infectious disease amongst British teenagers. This rather puts me in mind of a story I heard recently about the MP Nadine Dorries, who accidentally left behind in her room her Ladyshave after [...]

John Bercow, a man so stupid that he hasn't realised that he is in the wrong party, has come up with a proposal, described here by Simon Chapman at Centre Right: But his proposed amendment to the HFE Bill is even worse than it was described.

According to Sam Coates of The Times, one Tory MP has adopted Alan Duncan’s phrase to refer to some of the Conservative Party’s more foaming-mouth members and their reaction to the Equalities Bill: Of the seven Tory backbenchers in the chamber, two were in favour - Paul Goodman and John Bercow and five - Philip Davies, [...]
