MinnieStephC4 The Speaker who would have implemented change was thrown out because he wasn't complying with Tory Grandee ideas and policies.

MinnieStephC4 Let’s hope he starts with calling liars to account… but I doubt it… too much work for him, too much hassle.

MinnieStephC4 CommonsSpeaker one hopes you will pursue the disingenuous Ms Rayner with as much vigour as you applied to the phantom transgressors she invented

MinnieStephC4 Might it be possible, as in other parliaments, that all support staff are employed by the parliamentary estate itself, with HR support and a normal legal basis for protection?

MinnieStephC4 Perhaps he could also tackle the pervasive lying in the House of Commons too?

MinnieStephC4 Dose flashing your Ginger Growler count as inappropriate sexist behaviour

MinnieStephC4 Perhaps he should start by controling PMQs. He should Intervene when BJ starts to lie about Jobs, the Economy and Covid.

MinnieStephC4 Sir Lindsay - start with the LIES, then shut all those bars….that might be a start.

MinnieStephC4 The same Speaker who repeatedly lets Boris Johnson get away with lying at the Dispatch Box without correcting the record..

MinnieStephC4 Can I reform it, a 9mm only costs 20p.........

MinnieStephC4 They should shut the bars. Nobody else drinks alcohol on duty.

MinnieStephC4 Hoyle is a chocolate fire guard when it comes to defending parliamentary democracy, he's the worst person to head any kind of reform. It would be a pig's ear.

MinnieStephC4 Parliament is incapable of reforming itself, not to the extent required. That can only be imposed on it from without, and there’s no existing mechanism for doing that. This is what happens when you don’t have a violent revolution in 350+ years - you get a zombie constitution

MinnieStephC4 He could start things off by being a bit less spineless.

MinnieStephC4 His let’s the prime minister and Tory ministers lie their arses off. Until that changes, nothing will.

MinnieStephC4 start by banning the use of mobile phones, they're there to pay attention and work

MinnieStephC4 Another mauling by a dead sheep

MinnieStephC4 Good. Also, can we radically reform Sir Lindsey Hoyle by getting rid of him?

MinnieStephC4 This is the champion of not being allowed to call out lies. Fat chance of reform.
