SHAMELESS John Bercow is revelling in continental adoration after being told Europe “has fallen in love with him” over his Brexit grandstanding
The Commons Speaker, who has repeatedly hurled obstacles in front of Theresa May’s exit deal and ruled against Brexiteers, was “visibly honoured” at the claims. In an extraordinary interview with an Italian newspaper, the former Tory was told his crucial role in controlling what MPs can vote on in the exit process has made him a European “idol” with legions of “admirers”. Mr Bercow, a self-confessed Remainer, denied he was biased when ruling over Brexit proceedings.
