A true democrat taking a risk to give Parliament its voice. Knighthood is deserved much more than those knighted for being rich, powerful or simply for being a celebrity.

John Bercow has spoken out and preserved Parliamentary sovereignty, as is his job. He has done so at a time of great national crisis and knowing that the government would seek to punish him. Where others in Parliament are wringing their hands and looking to their own interests, he has not forgotten what our Parliament’s duty and responsibility is.
