UK: John Bercow, former speaker banned from Parliament for life after bullying inquiry finds him guilty

The former Commons speaker has repeatedly denied the allegations against him, claiming: "I have never bullied anyone, anywhere, at any time in any way"

Newsroom March 9 09:43

John Bercow has been found guilty of bullying House of Commons staff by the standards watchdog and banned from holding a pass allowing him access to parliament buildings for life.

A report published by the Independent Expert Panel into the former Commons speaker’s conduct states Mr Bercow “has been a serial liar” and “a serial bully”.

It adds that his behaviour “fell very far below that which public has a right to expect from any member of parliament” and that were he still a sitting MP, it would have been recommended that “he should be expelled by resolution of the House”.
