episode 163: Order! The one with JOHN BERCOW
Clear the lobby for special guest JOHN BERCOW, the most controversial Speaker in recent history. He visits Remainiacs to talk about his time in charge of Commons at war, his new autobiography Unspeakable, what Remain got wrong, David Cameron’s disastrous miscalculations, whether he’d do Strictly… and those incendiary bullying allegations. Plus: The Government starts its relationship with the EU as it means to go on, in loutish bad faith. Why Cummings is losing a war with Sajid Javid that nobody understands. What Ros saw in Parliament Square on Brexit night. And why it isn’t wrong to point out when stupid people do stupid things. “As far as David Cameron was concerned his principle WAS his career so the idea of giving up your career for your principles was somewhat alien to him.” – JOHN BERCOW Presented by Dorian Lynskey with Ros Taylor and Ian Dunt. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Audio production and script by Alex Rees. Remainiacs is a Podmasters production.
