Farage uses maiden Parliament speech to attack 'little man' Bercow

Nigel Farage said Reform UK are the “new kids on the block” in the House of Commons as he used his first speech to criticise the former speaker John Bercow.

The Reform leader said: “We can’t judge you from working in this place but we can judge you from the way the outside world sees you.

“I don’t just mean the United Kingdom, I mean the world, because Prime Minister’s Questions time is global box office politics and it is pretty clear to everybody that you [Sir Lindsay Hoyle] act with great neutrality, that you have brought tremendous dignity to the role as Speaker so we absolutely endorse you entirely for this job.

“And it is, I must say, in marked contrast to the little man that was there before you and besmirched the office so dreadfully in doing his best to overturn the biggest democratic result in the history of the country.”
